20 Titles for Revolution at launch

I played bluestorm when they first showed off the gcn at e3. I actualy prefer the n64 version alot more.

 

Just to add to some of the things said about Zelda TP earlier. I can also confirm it will be a GC title BUT "...when you play Twilight Princess on Revolution you can take advantage of the Revolution controller." said Shigeru Miyamoto in an interview and extra features when played on the REV should show up at E3. Looks like my predictions were right!!!

 

I'd be mightily impressed if this were to happen. But the mention of Suda 51's Rev game was enough to secure the Rev as a must-buy for me.

Plus Red Steel sounds very promising, and I'm interested in the concept for Sadness. I'll see how it goes, but hey, it looks like we'll have at least a few third party games to look forward too.(^_^)

 

Honestly I dont trust nintendo: they did the same with the 64DD, saying Zelda was going to be only for that add on...

I think this last delay was to decide if the game really goes for GC or as a launch game for revo.

 

but at the end, it was a good decision that made everyone happy, so you cant compare.

 

What about the VirtualBoy? shit, what about the "movie like" graphics from project reality AKA N64?

There are more non-nintendo people in the revolution bandwagon than in GCs, so TP would make for a great launch title in that system.

But, why would you buy the revo for TP when you can get a GC for half the price and the same game experience? That's why it needs to be revo only.

BTW, TP already sounds like "The Legend of Zelda: Toilet Paper":lol:

 

As in Beavis and Butthead's quotes... "TP for my bunghole" heh

 

how is this different to the games sce has always played ?

psone : T-rex
pstwo : ridge racer "real time" demo
psthree : killzone 2

 

Because its not the same experience? Its like GT4 on PS2, using the controller vs the Logitec steering wheel. its totally different feeling, and I imagine thats how the Rev TP will be

 

If you look at the last generation, you've got games like Conker's Bad Fur Day and Paper Mario coming out at the end of the N64's life, neither of which sold particularly well. Then you've got Gamecube near-launch titles like Eternal Darkness, Starfox Adventures and Resident Evil 0, the former two at least selling very well. Admittedly, neither of the N64 games are system sellers exactly, but it still seems to me that it would make much better business sense to make the new Zelda game Revolution only. It wouldn't bother me that much, I'm buying the system anyway, especially since it's going to be around half the price of the competition, so what's the issue?

 

there was more than that at the gamecubes launch,i remember madden and tony hawk also being available.i swear there were two more as well,maybe the nba courtside also.

 

The only fun I can see using the rev controller on zelda (and that I would love) would be swinging the controller around for sword attacks.

 

Well...

Think that I'm talking about the casual share of the market, not the fanboys and hardcore gamers that always agree.

And for the first time since I'm here, alchy seems to agree with me:lol:

And dvdmike, we already talk about sony and their hype machine. I'm not saying nintendo is worst, but theyr aren't perfect either.

 

It's not because they don't want to make the TP a Revolution-only title. But to change and boost the geometry and graphical technics to suit the new hardware, in a way that we would except a next-gen Zelda to be.. they need a year or two for that kind of know-how, no matter how similar the system may be to the cube.

They wouldn't want to release a low-end (graphically) game for the already "weak" (in specs compared to 360 and Ps3) Revolution. This would just make the Revolution look even worse to the eyes of most people.

 

The revo is barely a nextgen console, in fact I dont think is any more powerful than the Xbox, and that one is old already, it could barely handle Doom3.

If you buy the revo you giving up graphics for gadgets..

On the other hand, adding some polys to the models in TP isnt that hard. Plus TP already looks like a Nexgen game (shit, even better that some real nextgen games).

As carmack said: "you can have all the graphic power you want, but at the end is all up to the artists"

 

uh.... no. The common mistake made by casuals to say that the revolution is a soupped-up xbox totally shows a lack of knowledge on the subject. Heck, even ign's claims show that they are poor reporters. Xbox and revolution have two distinct platforms. Xbox's CPU is an intel celeron running at 733mhz. On the other hand, non-finalized Revolution's specs are IBM PPC 733mhz, and it will certainly go up. Anyway, im running out of time, but revolution have ST1 ram, and we have no idea about the gpu yet, so saying the revolution is a souped up xbox is really showing a lack of knowledge.

And giving up graphics to gadgets? Uh, again, no. Its the future of video games, and people said the same about analogue sticks and rumble features.

I consider the revolution to be the only next-gen system, since its the only machine that will do a major leap in the gameplay area, and all other things are just fat.

 

I say it doesnt seems to be any more POWERFUL, I didnt say GC ver.2 nor the 733Mhz topic.

And talking about lack of knowledge, the GPU is said to be the same of X360 but with some handicaps to make it cheaper. And the Xbox CPU is a PIII if memory serves me right.

You mean because of the N64? back at the time the analog was the last thing nintendo was talking about. All I remember is them making fun of the PSX for the grainy graphics and jaggies, cuz the N64 was the only system with AA.

The analog didnt help that much (a trackpad would be better for FPS and such) and the rumble, c'mon...

And let's remember, they said the same shit about the powerglove, and it failed miserably. Even if the revo remote works as they say it stills has to go trought the market to see if people can stand playing with the thing.

 

People always forget that the powerglove was NOT a nintendo product... it was made by Mattel. (and yes, i admit that Mattel did market the NES in europe and Canada for the first year or so, but that doesn't change the fact that nintendo had nothing to do with the powerglove.)

 

Yes I know, and again, I didnt say it was made by nintendo.

But you cant deny the concept behind the remote is kinda similar.

Again, my doubt is not about the actual hardware but if people (generally speaking) would actually like to play with the remote.

 

A lot of people have been underwhelmed with the current next gen consoles atm (ie the 360) something that's drastically different even with potentially weaker graphics could have a major chance in the current industry enviroment.
