I think that looks nice. Games have come so far in the current Cube/PS2/XBox gen that nobody can say a game like that looks "Like crap" surely? The visual are clean and pleasant. Minimal popup. Textures. Lens flare. Some neat effects here and there. It doesn't look THE BEST but it looks good.
Its a launch title thats probably been done in about 6-10mths. so yeah it aint gonna be the best.

Ok doing one for the UK tonight :p

Many Thanks VOOK
i keep looking at Gameplay to see how long we have to wait still in the UK!
 
Monster 4x4 video with steering wheel attachment.
Looks okay for a launch game, guy controls like crap first lap, but second lap, he's got the hang of it and handles quite well.

In the first lap he is using it like excitetruck and having a torrid time. But in the 2nd and 3rd laps he uses it more like a proper wheel and it definitley controls better. This is pretty promising I think.

Guys- it's fake. At least the rating is. ESRB has Double Agent as an M title. The box art might not be fake, but that's been photoshopped.

Metroid Prime 3

Some shots from IGN that I hadn't seen before or I don't recognize. This shows a fight with Ridley, and the effects of getting hit/movement on the screen. Lots of blur and jarring effects to remind the user that he/she is wearing a helmet. That's cool.
I hope they don't overdo it. I mean against freakin Ridley it makes sense, but my most hated thing about Prime games is the "3-4 second charge before you shoot worth crap" thing, or how if you get hit at all you lose it. But then I guess Samus is a girl so maybe she's a real wussy one without the suit and that's why she can't keep her gun out after getting hit for 10 damage. Either way, all it does is slow down the gameplay and force you into coward tactics, not exciting.

This pic pretty much confirms that the Wii is a next-gen console. :D

I can't believe I'm saying this about Wii Sports, but that's the most impressive graphics I've seen for the Wii so far.

Yeah. I'd noticed that too, but wasn't really surprised. Ubi is, after all, a French studio.

Also, I've been saying for a while that Wii Sports looks a lot better than people have been giving it credit for. Trees look amazing, especially in Tennis (SpeedTree for Wii am confirmed?), textures and shadows (not to mention lighting) are great, but most of all, it's the whole art style that makes the whole game work. By the way, notice the aliasing in those Wii Sports pics (look where the stands meet the grass)- I'm calling no bullshots, and I'm impressed.

Has Wii Play even been mentioned off-the-cuff for the US? Name-dropped in any interviews perhaps? I feel like we're gonna miss out on that here.

I don't know, the new and improved Red Steel actually gives it a run for its money.

The goddamn trees in wii sports better look good if the players, the main focus of the game, look like molded turds.

Wha? Unless you think the Mii's themselves are hideous - technically, they're good.

And good to see you back, PL.

Yo PantherLotus, could you try a little restraint? 24 screens of a garish looking tv franchise entry that few people are interested in is probably a bit much. How about posting four then providing a link to the gallery if people are interested?
 
restraint is not for this thread!

yeah... those cars/avatar/spongebob screens made Wii Sports/Play *real* easy on the eyes.

spongebob was like neon glow overload.

I'll have to agree. I'd even go as far as to say nothing in WiiSports looks good.

The game has excellent textures. Way better than anything I've played outside of XBOX 360. Some cool graphical effects here and there. Outside of the Mii which is simple by design, the game looks pretty nice and has a cool soundtrack as well. I think it's by Mr. K Totata (Wave Race 64 style).

Has Wii Play been mentioned for US

Yah Yah! Nintendo spoke about the game being available and demoed it New York. No release date though :(

You've apparently been ignoring Zelda, Mario, and Metroid, though I do think Wii Sports looks quite nice.

This looks sweet. I'm just thinking about using my hand (wiimote) to fly around the living room just like I used to when I was 6 years old, shooting anything anything in my path with giant lasers of doom.

Or something like that.

First of all, amazing fire. Secondly, was I the only one who got a Freedom Force vibe when I saw that pic? Time Master rules.

Also, if that first shot of Monster 4x4 is representative of the final game, I might cry. That is so freakin' sweet you have no idea.

Pokemon Battle Revolution

Bad: Stadium redux. Good: looks ****ing awesome.

On the awesome note, I think we can all assume that the Wii will be most successful (at least in Japan) if they can position it as a download station/info transfer/recharge dock/(insert anything that the iPod does on your home CPU and you get the idea) for the DS. Pokemon would be the first prong of that attack, and it might very well be a huge hit.
