Cyber Rat Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 I don't follow you. I meant desparation as in recycling the same idea to shut up the hardcore Wii gamers. Like you guys said, every generation had one big different Mario game. Mario64, Mario Sunshine, Mario Galaxy. I haven't played Galaxy, but according to most posts on the Internet, he's using the same ideas, and '10% old levels'? Why even consider having old levels? Isn't that the point of making a new game? New content? I don't know, this all sounds like they're desperate. The Wii faired poorly IMO as far as the conferences go. When you look at it, two Mario games at the same time seem kinda... unnecessary. Of course, this is just my take on things. Maybe they really wanted to make another Galaxy game, or maybe they're running out of ideas, who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron C-T Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 I enjoyed Mario 64 a lot more than what I played of Mario Sunshine. Dont' know what that counts for, but it's true. I haven't see any of this Super Mario Bros/Super Mario & Luigi 3 stuff anywhere..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SefirothDB Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 http://www.konami.jp/kojima_pro/e3_2009/castlevania/ So Konami took the Castlevania franchise from IGA and gave it to Kojima to direct while Mercury Steam does the grunt work. Plus Patrick Stewart. Konami conference included the 2 MGS games and some DDR bullshit for next gen systems. Also Kojima stealthy trolled MG Raiden.

Spike Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 Of course, this is just my take on things. Maybe they really wanted to make another Galaxy game, or maybe they're running out of ideas, who knows. I don't think that people see how downhill Mario is going, really. When I first played Galaxy, I couldn't believe the sloppy controls and the slippery feeling of it. As we know, Sunshine was no prize either. And then we've got the billions of sports and Party games... Mario's basically done the same thing as Sonic when you think of it. Long line of crappy 3D games and spinoffs. *stands in the corner.* Pffft... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowgoten Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 rofl i see new super mario bros for the wii being decent at best, i thought super mario sunshine was extremely boring and derailed a lot of what they had going on. And personally I thought new super mario bros was extremely boring. Mario galaxy though, i just can't see what you're smoking here, the controls were not at all sloppy, the only slippery feeling i can think of was the ice levels. I never died once to the game being an idiot and glitching me or anything like that, it was me being an idiot and jumping at the wrong time or something along those lines. EDIT: also Ila, I'm honestly hoping for a more tech feel to the FF14, more along the lines of FF7, 8, and some parts of 10. They've already done the whole super fantasy mmo, they might as well shift focus a little ;_; but this is just me being super hopeful. Also! Purchased ff7 last night too bad hacked psp's can't play it yet due to it requiring 5.50 firmware, oh well i can play it on the ps3 at least. Another neat feature, you can pretty much transfer your save back and forth between the ps3 and psp so you can pretty much always be ploaying the game if you were that hardcore.

Candescence Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 Konami conference, guess what Lords of Shadow is... Yes, it's a Castlevania game. Konami, you idiots. An epic new 3D Castlevania, and the protaganist is NOT a Belmont (I can let other non-Belmont protaganists slide, but this guy isn't that cool)? And a more generic art style (why is Koji Igarashi not working on this game)? Come on, this is fucking lame. If the antagonist is NOT Dracula, I am going to rage. I don't give a damn if Kojima is working on it, there is no excuse. Judgement was better-looking than this. If they've canceled the SOTN sequel, I will rage even more. On the point of Galaxy 2... Galaxy was awesome, I don't mind more of the same (and I hear it's gonna be harder this time around). At least it's better the new Castlevania.

If they did it more like Devil May Cry, I'd let it slide a bit, but this is fucking retarded. This is the worst piece of news from E3 yet, and I am dead fucking serious.

Pheonix Gamma Posted June 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 Fuck y'all. Sunshine had some rad level design. I'll defend Galaxy 2 as well. Splatter Matter and Dark Matter showed that there were tons of room for crazy level design and gameplay ideas. So much untapped potential there. Besides, no one complained when they made Mario 3 or World. Dammit, you're not my friends anymore. You're all dead to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of people however complained about SMB2/Lost Levels (not the US 2)... which was in fact more of the same with a few minor additions. SMW was also significantly different from 3 even if the change wasn't as much of a leap as 1 to 3 was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Emerald Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 I'm actually quite pleased that there's going to be a new Mario Galaxy. The first installment still has a lot of playability in it, but I have positive hopes for the sequel. We're finally getting Yoshi -- a character that people were surprised wasn't in the first game, aside from having a cameo appearance as a hidden planet. I also like the new power drill; I'd like to see how the level designers further incorporate that object into the levels. Overall, it should be just as fun as the first. But the game I'm really excited for is Golden Sun DS! Golden Sun is one of my favorite RPGs, both the first one and The Lost Age. I absolutely loved the first two GBA installments, so when I heard that a third one was being released for the DS, I was ecstatic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pheonix Gamma Posted June 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 I'm not even going to argue with you on that, DW, because we've had, like, 10 page arugments about Smash Bros and Super Paper Mario. I accept your views, but you're off of my Christmas card mailing list. Also, FUZZY PHOTO OF THE ZELDA ART. ZOHMG http://bulk.destructoid.com/ul/user/1/18508-134738-1jpg-620x.jpg Also, Koopalings confirmed for New Mario Wii. Ludwig Von Koopa was here, Bowser Jr. is a loser.

Pheonix Gamma Posted June 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 The impressions I'm reading on the game so far are pretty good. Controls are tight, the game's a full-fledged Mario game with maps and bosses and tons of levels (not like Four Sword Adventures: Zelda-Lite) and multiplayer gets just as intense as it was on the DS.

More like because you know there isn't any arguing against SMB3 being a bigger leap from SMB1 than exists between any other Mario game aside from SMW to 64.

Cyber Rat Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 Mario's basically done the same thing as Sonic when you think of it. Long line of crappy 3D games and spinoffs. I think people are more pissed because of Sonic because he was on the Mega Drive, which was all 'hardcore' and 'NintenDON'T', while Mario was on the NES and SNES which pretty much had very family friendly approach from the start. Also, FUZZY PHOTO OF THE ZELDA ART. ZOHMGhttp://bulk.destructoid.com/ul/user/...-1jpg-620x.jpg I still find this ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DimensionWarped Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 but you haven't played Galaxy 2 yet! :V Yes, but just watching the video makes a number of things inherently obvious. Namely, the central gimmick, level design philosophy (and don't get me wrong, SMG was awesome and this will be too), art style, setting, and music direction. It's all the stuff of a great game, it's just that I would have rather seen something totally different. I'll just have to make due with Mario having a DRILL WHICH CAN PIERCE THE HEAVENS!

Candescence Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 I just realised - Lords of Shadow might not have started as a Castlevania game in the first place. The evidence is in this 1Up article: Yes, it's a retrofitting of Lords of Shadow -- an action game that was revealed at Games Convention 2008 -- to fit into the Castlevania series. No bloody wonder.
