Coincidence.
Two development teams working on a similar games inspired by Harry Potter which just happen to have art designers with similar backgrounds and similar tastes. It must be a coincidence.

Or Wii is indeed turning into a shovelware system of choice - or PS2 showelware system of choice to be exact. I like the system, but this is not the 3rd party support I was hoping for.

 

[Diablohead]

Dispite the team names I believe its basicly the same game.

 

[Jasup]

with new and improved control scheme!

But yes, that is what I was saying, crappy ports of old shovelware - not so very exciting.

 

[Mario]

Just found this note on IGN -

"NOTE: This game was discontinued and re-released in 2007 under the title Billy the Wizard due to a similarity in title with the Harry Potter franchise."

Looks like the attempt sponge off the popularity of Harry Potter to might have resulted in a legal challenge.

Anyway, back to the box art...

 

[Infernal Monkey]

RIP Barry.

I didn't think they bothered releasing Nascar games in PAL regions anymore, last one I can remember was on N64.

 

[ram]

nascar 06: total team control was released here!

I am glad to see this coming here, what is the release date?

 

[Koshiro]

Probably due to Montoya being on the cover (ex-F1).

[Prime crotch]

When is this coming out?

 

[McBacon]

When is this coming out?

Very soon, my review copy is being sent out like now, Wikipedia says July 6th

 

[Prime crotch]

Aww crap I'll be out of money at this rate.

It's already out. I got it today. I have one big gripe with the game so far. In 50hz mode you'll have one big ugly blue bar at the bottom of the screen

 

[Android18a]

Sega Rally Cover

I hope that's not the real logo. I loved the old Saturn-style logos, it was kinda like a badge. I'd love to see the new game really take its stylings from the classic game. It's already got the pretty colours

 

[Danielsan]

Btw the KoFXI boxart that was posted is not the actual boxart of the PAL version.
It looks like this:

 

[Infernal Monkey]

That's pretty awesome. =o~

Known as Tank Beat elsewhere

 

[Martial Loh]

doggone it, amazon said they delayed my copy of KOF XI till July too..
Who did you order with?

[Morbid Angel]

Any info on Global Defence Force : Tactics?

 

[starlight]

Apparently it's not very good.

 

[Infernal Monkey]

Oh shit, awesome!

Glad they changed the colour of the microphone for Boogie to match the Wii's colour scheme. But it's a shame that the game only comes with one microphone though.

 

[M3wThr33]

That microphone looks EXACTLY like the Logitech microphones that came bundled with a SHITLOAD of PS2 games.

Is this EDF2 under a different name, or completely different game?

 

[Infernal Monkey]

Different game, it's a strategy game spin-off thingy.

This is the PAL version of EDF2;

Which.. will hopefully actually get released one day!

 

[viewtifulsub]

Ah, thanks for the heads up.

If EDF2 is not out by July, i'll give up on my 6month wait for it.

hmm it came out already a few months back

 

[Martial Loh]

thats what they say, but I don't think it really did.. My order kept slipping from one week, to two weeks..to "Undeterminable". At that point i just cancelled it.

 

[Morbid Angel]

Play.com has GDF and GDF: Tactics for 29/06/2007.

click me

 

[Kaworu]

SRT: OG 2 EURO RELEASE?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL, WE NEED MOAR NFO!.

So, EDF2 will eventually come out THIS month?. The game was delayed like 10 times.

 

[Prime crotch]

I can't speak with 100% sure but I think the game was already released, maybe the publisher ran out of stock and the new one comes out late june?

[fushi]

The cheap-looking Photoshop motion blur really ruins the boxart.

I wish they would've gone with an open look, like, having the main character stand in a somewhat noticeable position, looking down on the city that lay wide open before him. Since that's his playground and all.

 

[GrayFoxPL]

The green one looks like he's on crack :lol.

What's this in original japanese? I'm a sucker for helmets.

Shadow of Blocoseus? Pretty neat art.

Lynch: One Dead Man ?

The funds lasted only to rip only half of game? :lol

And it's by Virgin? Oh how they fell. To think they published RE2 back in the day.


We need a thread with youtube videos of all those games. Only who's the man enough to buy them? :lol

 

[Dagless M.D.]

What is this and why do i want it so bad?
