Same. And wanting an RPG, it'll be hard to go wrong with Dragon Quest Swords (and Fire Emblem and Crystal Chronicles). I have complete confidence in this game being completely awesome... with Mr. Horii personally overseeing it, I never had any doubts. :)

Please to be not comparing Call of Duty 3 with Far Cry: Vengeance. Yea, okay all of the launch window FPS games were rushed but CoD 3 is actually playable and all that.

MoH's graphics are very disappointing. Developers were doing more impressive graphics in first-gen GameCube titles. While graphics aren't the most important focus for Wii, developers seem to be taking that as an excuse and creating lazy ports. We need to start consistently seeing Xbox-level and better graphics.

I'm particularly worried for types of games that will be more likely to use last-gen assets, such as sports games. Even if the Wii is underpowered, they should look better with sharper textures and perhaps some, I dunno, real shader support.

I know what you mean. But when an engine is developed on the PS2 and it's then just beeing poorly ported over in a quick fashion I feel cheated by having to pay the full price.

Yeah, that's my biggest gripe, it could have been so much more. With just a tiny bit of effort they could have made an absolutely solid product...oh well.

This...actually looks ****ing good. Of course, they're at half rez, but still. I love the detail, effective use of blur, and an awesome color palette. I need to find out more about this game.

That Conan-game has prehistoric 3d-graphics, but...i´d buy it if it came out in Europe. Great series, and a game about it doesnt need uber-graphics.
Though i doubt we´ll see a western release -.-

Then you clearly haven't played GNT4. The graphics are easily better in EX. The lighting and effects especially

Ok, the lighting. But what about textures and polycount? Textures look even less detailed on those screenshots.

This reminds me of what would happen if the Japanese culture got a hold of the NFL and then combined it with The West Side Story.

Tiger Woods

This is honestly the first golf game I've ever wanted. Some videos are floating around that confirm its greatness.

My biggest concern is the silly idea of having to shake the controller to get backspin or forward spin. You'd think that it could be input before hand--you should never have control over the ball once it leaves the club, right?

Don't be a twit. The game looks brilliant and will outshine any of its predecessors. You have to see it in video.

Well, everything else can look goog besides the effects i mentionned + the animation can look good too. But if i have to make a global comment on the "quality" of the art direction, blur festival and lense flares isn't making any game look better.
Art direction for art direction, Sonic looks better imo. Also note there is no miss-use of bloom there. (at least that what i see in most screens)
