Not sure if anyone saw this but go nintendo posted a youtube of Dead Space using a wiimote script

Kinda cool to see how control might work

I haven't seen Dead Rising on the Wii so I can't make a 1-1 comparison. All I can say is when I saw the game in motion on the Wii I said, "Wow". I tend to think everything is crap, so from me, "Wow" is a high compliment.

Sounds awesome.

And just for sake of completion, here are the two Dead Risings:

 

[Aaron Strife]

I like how the counter in the bottom says "6 killed" in the Wii version and "274 killed" in the 360 version.

Also, you work there, and your higher-ups are probably watching what you post, so it's best not to say anything negative about it.

 

[Jaded Alyx]

Then you're lucky. I've tried every possible combination of the settings V-sync in-game, V-sync in drivers, triple buffering, Max frames prerendered, Logitech mouse sensitivity, in-game mouse sensitivity (even editing the .ini file to take it above 1.0) and no matter what I did, I couldn't get rid of the damn mouse lag. There was always a solid half-second of lag.

Point is, it probably depends on your system whether you can get rid of the lag.

....and this, EA, is why we need PC demos.

 

[Blast Processing]

So, do I pick up the 360 version now, or wait until the Wii version is out and see what the consensus is? Everything I've read about the PC version makes me not even want to try it there.

is that a SMG planet in the bg?

is that a SMG planet in the bg?

Yes.

 

[AceBandage]

is that a SMG planet in the bg?

Yes, and it should have been Gusty Garden.

 

[Anony]

interesting...

because to me, what they're saying is that if SMG is the best graphic on the wii, they've either have the graphics in a level that's surpassed SMG (or at least rivals it)
something to hope for

That's what I thought at first, but to be fair:
1) If he doesn't like it, he can just say "can't talk about it"
2) He doesn't really like the Wii hardware, so he wouldn't hype up the graphics of a Wii game, even an EA game, if he didn't think it deserved it
3) As soon as the game is shown in screenshots/videos, his claim will be verified or debunked, so he's got no real incentive to lie about it. Graphics are the easiest thing to judge without actually buying a game.

Then again, you probably were being sarcastic, but at least that allowed me to come up with this list.

 

[Jaded Alyx]

Yes, and it should have been Gusty Garden.

Surely you meant to say Space Junk.

......You're aware that pic isn't from EA, right?

 

[Neomoto]

Well, finally more pubs are porting a high profile "core HD" game to Wii. I hope more publishers follow. I haven't played Dead Space yet, but if it is a good Wii effort with good Wii controlls I might get it

 

[Vdragoon]

Iwata vindicated!

It is official! :lol :lol

Look at the link. It's from the-minus-world.

After seeing the products we make you really think a lot of high level EA execs are reading neogaf?

 

[codecow]

Sounds awesome.

And just for sake of completion, here are the two Dead Risings:

Based on those screen shots I'd say they both look bad (puts on flame suit).

 

[ultim8p00]

I hope EA doesn't make it into Dead Space: Space Party of Space or something

 

[EmCeeGramr]

zomg dead space wii to look better than dead rising 360 confirmed (headlines instantly on kotaku and n4g)

He's got a point.

Touché.

DO WANT

What did Cass say?

He has been promising a dark game for the Wii since last year and then re-confirmed it this year. Listen to the Nintendo Podcast tells you everything you need to know.

I don't get why people don't trust Matt with secrets and stuff... he hasn't been wrong in like ever. Halo DS was true, Kid Icarus is 90% true (the games developers are having money problems from countless sources), Dark games for Wii is true.

 

[Lost Fragment]

Not that I really give a shit either way if some random tool was right or wrong, but sounds like cold reading to me.

 

[Vinci]

Kid Icarus is 90% true (the games developers are having money problems from countless sources)

No. Just ... no.

 

[MarzipaNMOS]

zomg dead space wii to look better than dead rising 360 confirmed (headlines instantly on kotaku and n4g)

Going by this, we can probably expect mid-360 level visuals with some nice Okami watercolored filters going on. Maybe even some HQ 2D sprites.

dude i called it

 

[HK-47]

Play American McGee's Grimm. Low budget, but pretty cool in that aspect.

True. But really what made me love Alice, and what I didnt think they went nearly far enough in, was Wonderland as a physical representation of her shattered mind. I really wanted even more visual hints and dialogue with the inhabitants. Still quite good for a Quake engine tp action game at the time. Quite a high concept jump from the Doom games to that

I'm under the impression that Grimm does the whole dark thing just for the sake of it, which is interesting from an artistic perspective but it lacks the hooks and bite of Alice. Still I have been meaning to try it

American McGee's Alice is underrated and deserves more love

 

[soldat7]

Don't call it yet. We haven't seen anything (although the EA guy on here gives a lot of hope). I doubt it will achieve 'mid-level' graphics in comparison to the PS3/360 version (end boss says hi), but I think we can expect it to stack up well to other titles on the Wii and be quite impressive in that respect.

I just can't wait to play more Dead Space. I'm VERY pumped for this.

Yeah, I didn't mean CEOs.

Matt, is that you?

 

[freddy]

Oh come on I bet he's looked over this thread.

More shooters for Wii please all you CEOs and Presidents out there.

I think he's just a bit annoying and anal sometimes and people like to cut him to shreds any chance they get.

Well you can probably solve your commitment problems with a good healthy dose of playing the dem ... oh, wait. I didn't say anything.

Except there is absolutely nothing fucking wrong with the PC version.

 

[IAmtheFMan]

Given the recent trend, NOA is going to work overtime so that somehow, this isn't going to be released in the U.S.

That only applies to Japanese developed games that Nintendo is supposed to be publishing.

 

[Tron 2.0]

Yeah, I didn't mean CEOs.

If he thought it looked like shit he didn't have to say anything at all.

[Captain N]

I hope this game turns out to be do well! I'm not even kidding. I want to see EA make a 2D Dead Space on the DS that plays like Castlevania.

Since you have a 360, just use the 360 pad for the PC version.

 

[soldat7]

Dead Space for the DS. Match made in heaven?

Spoiler

I'd buy it.

The problem with Cassamassina is that for some reason he takes a game pitch and says it's all of a sudden in development. Halo DS was never in development. I'm pretty sure it's the same with Kid Icarus. Devs are trying to pitch these concepts and he just automatically assumes they'll get picked up. Same with that other Silent Hill-esque game he was hyping a couple weeks back.

But the DS can't do gravity, the game will be ruined.

Well technically, they are/were in development. But just as demos, not as full games yet.

 

[Hwang Seong-Gyeong]

You know it's a terrible cash in, when the screens come in there's going to be tons of nerd rage going around.

 

[Teknoman]

Except there is absolutely nothing fucking wrong with the PC version.

Yeah, isnt it 360 gamepad compatible anyway? Get the best of both worlds with that.

Still contemplating getting PC version...but first i've gotta see whats up with the Wii version and if its a side story or port.

 

[Ysiadmihi]

You know it's a terrible cash in, when the screens come in there's going to be tons of nerd rage going around.

At least, that's what you hope?

 

[Meesh]

Now hold up a minute, I thought Nintendo was implementing some new-fangled motion anti-gravity card type deal? /more sarcasm

 

[rollingstart]

Metroid Fusion

realistically, a 2D Dead Space would be more in the style of Blackthorn, Flashback, etc.
