GameTrailers Most Anticipated Games Of 2010

For me, the opposite, TN is one of those teams that can make a hell of a combat system without sacrificing pace (yes, fuck you Prime series) and since it is a sidescroller, the worries about the camera system go away :lol
But TN does not have any final say in this game. The early interviews basically laid it out like this. It is the GBA Metroid team doing all the structure and design and they are using the tech expertise from TN to do modeling and programming. I'm having trouble seeing how TN will screw this up.

I straight up cannot believe that, looking at the trailer. Game looks way too much like Ninja Gaiden.

what... is thee a new trailer because i dont remember this looking like gaiden at all.

Do the mixed feeling and expectations of failure come from thinking the game will be like NG?


NG? Hell no. They come from NG2, Dead or Alive and that goofy ass volleyball game.

Don't believe me then. Just saying what I read.

Wired.com: We were completely surprised by this announcement. How did you decide to work with Team Ninja?

Yoshio Sakamoto: It all started in 2006, ...That’s when I began mulling over various concepts. But when it came to the actual development process, while my team has had experience developing 2-D handheld versions of Metroid, we, to be completely honest, didn’t have the know-how or the experience to develop something for 3-D. That, and we didn’t have the manpower, either. I didn’t have the resources.

I realized that I’d probably need to find a partner...I was very fortunate at that time to speak with Mr. Hayashi and the team at Team Ninja.

Wired.com: How is the team set up? How many people from Nintendo, how many from Team Ninja?

Sakamoto: As for me personally, the role that I’ve taken on is producer. Also on Nintendo’s side are three other key people who have experienced development on the handheld Metroid games. One gentleman was responsible for designing the maps, another gentleman was actually a designer, so he’s more experienced in developing the visuals of the game, and then we’ve also got one gentleman who was a programmer on the handheld games, and he’s doing more project management.

Hayashi: From the Team Ninja side, there are various programmers and computer graphics designers totaling about 70 people. And then, as we mentioned before, the story element of the game is very significant, and we’ve got a team from a company called D-Rockets, who is also part of Project M, working on the cinematics, and a gentleman by the name of Ryuji Kitaura. So we’ve got about 100 people working on this project.

As for the trailer looking at a DAO trailer you will be listening to Marylin Manson and having sex for 60 hours. How else do you show a Metroid trailer? What should they have done shown you jumping around for 10 minutes and finding an energy upgrade?

Some things are more exciting in trailers than others and usually combat is at the top of the list.
 
The only thing this countdown reminds me of, is that the music for Bioshock and the intro music from Metroid Prime 3 is amazing!!!!!

I must have missed those interview, where did they say that?

I really don't think that TN would be hired just for that, specially when a lot of the actions seems to be closer to their style, anyway, the GBA Metroid games were good, so long as the people involved on the Prime series don't touch Other M, Im cool.
 
When exactly did it become normal and acceptable to have GT5 missing from that kind of list ? I was expecting some kind of meltdown and I'm sorely disappointed.

Seems like selective memory to me. In fact, it's pretty much the opposite of what Sakamoto went out of his way to explain:

(Everyone moves to leave, but Sakamoto signals for us all to sit again.)

YS: We have three companies collaborating on this game; a team we've dubbed Project M. With Nintendo, Team Ninja, and another company that's focusing on the cinematics working together, we've broken down the walls that define each company and joined forces to form a separate entity. It's unlike anything that's ever been done at Nintendo; It's more than just a collaborative effort -- it's one group working toward a common goal.

Perhaps they're doubting that Last Guardian will release in 2010, since they had that elaborate explanation in the beginning.
This. Would not mind if Sony proves us wrong. ---But they did say the Motion Controller would be out in the spring.
 
Swap mass effect 2 & starcraft II around and it's not a bad list. i think metroid other M will either be incredibly brilliant or incredibly average, only time will tell. & presumably they're pushing last guardian into 2011. or they're fucking insane. having said that, the lack of GT5 definitely lends credence to the fucking insane theory. i'm not a huge fan of GT/racing sims in general but to omit it in favour of some of the lower entries on that list seems crazy.

yah, no, apparently Hayashi has more influence on the project than you seem to think (but that was apparent from the trailer)

Hayashi: I feel it’s my responsibility to not only meet and exceed the desires and hopes of the existing Metroid series fans, but also to even just have one more player play. As part of that, I feel it’s also my responsibility to bring up new suggestions, new ideas, new concepts that maybe Mr. Sakamoto hasn’t had, hadn’t thought of. That would be my major contribution.

Hayashi: It’s not our goal to make a Team Ninja version of Metroid. We’re working as part of this larger group, and so as Mr. Sakamoto said earlier, it’s our goal not just to make a game that appeals to Metroid fans or fans of Team Ninja games. It should be a game for everyone.

Hayashi: I think within the entire Nintendo universe, that I have a responsibility to make Metroid the most beautiful, not only in terms of its graphics but also its game design. So my approach is one that — given that my understanding of the Metroid universe is being this beautiful experience — my responsibility is to stay true to that

How does that change what I quoted? Sure its a new entity doesn't change his vision for the game. I mean I could keep posting quotes about how it will be a Metroid game. Or see how many times he wants to make it like Fusion. I just dont' see where it is going to be something completely different and more like a Team Ninja game. Unless you are just going by the trailer and well we should all know by now that a trailer doesn't really represent a game like this very well.

You're coming across like Team Ninja isn't involved in the game design, and it's quite clear that they are just as invested as Nintendo, if not more so.
 
I'm sad there's no Star Ocean: The Last Hope <INTERNATIONAL> :(

I guess I'm the only one who's hyped for it :P

Anyway, decent list but it lacks Last Guardian and GT5.
 
Agree with about half the list: Mario Galaxy, Red Dead, Metroid M, Halo Reach, and Starcraft II

The other half looks pretty meh.

...

Are you really going to make me explain this? It doesn't change "what you quoted", it gives context and directly addresses the wider point you were making about Team Ninja's level of involvement. That is why I said "selective memory". You've expressly painted the picture that Team Ninja is simply doing modeling and programming ("tech expertise"), and otherwise don't have much influence, which is flatly contradicted by Sakamoto's own comments. So who are we to believe? Are you sure you're not one of those guys with too much pride to back down from an offhanded comment?

edit: I agree with you insofar as I don't think the final product will be dominated by Team Ninja's vision either, and shouldn't be cause for concern. I'm excited to see what the end result of harnessing their talents in combination with Nintendo's rigorous quality control standards will be. My contention is just that you're generally underselling Team Ninja's involvement.

Star Ocean ahahahaa
 
Surprised to see 2 Wii titles in the top considering they have been proving to be very Anti-Wii.

Oh well, always a time to redeem yourself.

GT loves SMG and Metroid though.

Yeah, it is very obvious you haven't played the game yet. Nobody who played it -- even the ones who enjoyed it -- would put it in a Top 10 Anticipated Games of 2010 list.

Well... I really don't play Star Ocean for the stories nor for the voices. :lol

It's all about the grinding, the creation of stuff, and the possible Cave of Trials.
 
I for one am hoping FF13 Versus releases in 2010.
And if so, that is automatically my number one anticipated game for the year.
 
pretty good list. it's a testament to the quality of 2010's lineup is that there's so much missing from it.

not getting the hype for other m, personally. looks like a total regression from the excellent Prime series.
 
Top 2 games are Nintendo games? I mean I want to play Galaxy2 as well. But I'm not expecting to be blown away like Galaxy1.

And Metroid #1? Is anyone actually looking forward to this Metroid game for any other reason than it has the word Metroid in it? I doubt it will be better than Prime 3 which I couldn't be bothered to finish. It just seemed so dated and last gen.

Uh well, it wasn't long ago they declared the Wii "dead" and that Nintendo were stranded with no games. This was on Invisible Walls.

They haven't even shown gameplay yet :lol But best of luck to you.

Well....to be completely optimistic, FF13 didn't really begin the blowout coverage until 2009, and that's the year it released.

I'm crossing my fingers xD

Though gameplay was shown at Jump Festa in a closed theater, and I'm pretty upset about that >:C

I feel the same way about the Prime series (gameplay) compared to Super Metroid. ;) To each their own.
