My eyes are nauseous.

Man, that looks so outdated, and even for an outdated looking game it looks pretty ugly.

I guess this is what happens when you mostly ignored the GC hardware last gen. You're not well prepared for the hardware like other developers. I hope Capcom puts forth a better effort with Sengoku BASARA.

This is just criminal. Taking a brand new platform, with an awesome new idea for a controller, and just tacking on a "wow look at this game!!!" controll method for a few bucks.


Just an awesome job you Koei bastards.

Just an awesome job you Koei bastards.

whats more shocking is that it looks worse than their solitary cube game (which came out in 2002).

not MUCH worse mind, but undoubtedly worse.

 

[Marbles]

Somebodies taking the piss, why even release dodgy screens like that.

If the game looks as bad as this on release, just ban me, put me out of my misery.

Work in progess FTWii.

 

[jehuty]

Is it possible for Koei to be able to improve the graphics by launch?

 

[KINGMOKU]

To what? This game looks mind-boggelingly bad.

"Just wait man, it'll improve to late dreamcast quality."


The starting point here is what games loooed like 10 years ago. think about that. It's not like a bad looking Gamecube game, PS2 game, or even a dreamcast game. This is a poor/marginal looking playstation ONE game.

Improve? Setting the developers on fire could be the only improvment.

 

[Olivier]

Errm, why can we see through the leftmost tree?

FFS Koei. Winback on the N64 looks better than this shit.

 

[PolyGone]

At least their SNES games are pretty good.

 

[Stormbringer]

What the **** is this shit ?
Goggles, they do nothing, etc.

To be fair, the psp screen is very dark and hence hide their ugliness better. You have to look at the Wii screenshots like looking at the sun, like at an angle or with special goggles.

 

[slaughterking]

Compared with Dynasty Warriors 360 SMW doesn't look that bad.

 

[Tokubetsu]

Another sword game for Wii! :lol

 

[Cronox]

What is up with this guys legs? This is worse than that one shot from the Godfather on PS2...

 

[Buffy4ever]

Why do all Wii games look bad in pic? except for SMG

 

[koam]

Simple reason? The game has no official (or unofficial for that matter) North American name, and Koei themselves instructed everyone to use that as a title. I don't think it's going to be "Samurai Warriors: Musou Wave".

IGN has it as "Samurai Warriors Wave (Wii)" and at least, when someone reads the thread name, they know what to expect.

 

[Dynamite Shikoku]

wtf is up with wii? is it less powerful than gamecube or what?

 

[kablooey]

Wow, who knew the N64 could pump out visuals like that? Impressive work, Koei.

 

[Dragona Akehi]

If someone told me this was a last gen PSX game I wouldn't blink.

 

[DjangoReinhardt]

Dear Koei,

Quit making timesinks.

[JDSN]

Makes sence that the game looks like that, the 360 version looks like a PS2 game.

 

[Jive Turkey]

Showing up near the end of page 3 means all the good jokes/comments are already taken so all I have to say is "Yikes".

 

[Luna104]

Reminds me of Lands of Lore: Guardians of Destiny. Which I do love. I'm this close to making an appreciation thread.

Spoiler

HAR HAR

 

[Mr. Pointy]

I think I threw up a little.

 

[Servbot #42]

looks a little above a psone game,but man it looks bad.....but seriously this must be an early build right?....RIGHT?

 

[Parl]

No surprise that the graphics for this game sucks. Koei had little/no experience with the GameCube; even those who did are open to new abilities with Wii in relation to GC (the greater RAM has made some features a lot more feasable).

Koei aren't the best for graphics anyway, and I bet their main graphics artists and coders are tucked away doing Fatal Inertia.

Still, this might improve, but I won't expect wonders.

SMG proves that Wii can pull of some good stuff in the graphics department, and I'm sure that's not the last good eye candy we'll see on Wii. I think all will be fine.

 

[pitt_norton]

Winback on the N64 looks better than this shit.

I expected more out of Omega Force after the awesome fun Winback was on N64. The vids of this arcade slasher are slow and boring.
