What if it's a Geist sequel?
No, epic mickey 2.
Guess I might have misunderstood what Anth0ny was talking about.
Even if it looks like this?
I really hope Nintendo gives us 2D Mario, Metroid, Donkey Kong and a top-down Zelda, all with awesome hand-drawn graphics, 60fps and fluid animation in HD.
I was talking DS2.
What? There is no PC version...
and why would it look so remarkably better than PS360 even if there were? Better yes, but not to that extent.
There's a number of reasons the hud could be missing. Plus, look at the cursor. It's either PS3+move or wii u.
RETRO should make either
- a) A new FPS with a cool gameplay mechanic and plot or
- b) Metroid Prime 4.
And nothing else.
Seriously.
Plus, both these things fit in with the whole "something everyone wants us to do" thing.
1.) Yes, there is. That's why someone (from THQ? Dunno) said a few months ago that the Wii U version of DS2 will look comparable or even as good as the PC version. At the very least it would look noticably better than the PS360 version of the game.
2.) Because Darksiders 2 seems to have been in development for the Wii U for quite some time already, a year at least, taking the PC version (which exists, btw) as a basis.
Since both the Wii U and an average today's PC have more power than either the PS3 or 360 there is a very plausible reason to assume that the Wii U version will look "so remakably better than PS360".
I call at least textures at higher resolutions, the same amount of AA, 720p at 60 fps and maybe a few more polygons here and there.
Overall a prettier experience than what the PS360 will turn out to be. I'm pretty sure of that.
If they make another DK game I hope its a "Donkey Kong City" where they move the franchise to an urban landscape in order to freshen things up.

You know, I wouldn't mind a Donkey Kong 64 2 for Wii U.
Oh lord. I could totally see them incorporating funky kong and some ill conceived raps.
NOT SURE IF WANT
skimmed the last few pages, don't think I saw this posted:
Darksiders 2 to be Wii U launch title, adds 'enhanced' controls
was DS2 already confirmed for launch or just rumored/assumed?

Then it would be okayAs long as it's not boring. Sounds strange, I know, but I'm cautious...
I can't see it being Geist. It doesn't fit in with the rumours and spec. It's not something that seems likely to me.
Why the troll face? A new DK64 would be amazing.
GAF seems to fucking hate the game. I've always loved it and viewed it as a spiritual successor to Banjo Kazooie, one of my favorite games ever.

Well, according to three awesome Metroid games, one awesome Donkey Kong game and tha majority (?) of the tracks in Mario Kart 7, we can pretty safely assume that Retro can do pretty much anything with any IP and it'll be awesome (but probably only as long as Nintendo is watching behind their backs. Like they did with Rare).
But yeah, I'm getting kinda annoyed by it too.
Retro is doing something, yes.
It's very possibly for the Wii U, yes.
We don't know, though, WHAT it is.

We know that, WHATEVER Retro is making, it's gonna be awesome and it'll be praised by gamers and critics alike. So just enjoy it. It's like christmas. You don't open your presents BEFORE christmas, do you?
(or christmas eve, depending on how you celebrate it).
I don't think that the hate for DK64 is limited to this forum. That game put a ridiculous focus on collecting.

that's good =)
Man, I hope AC3 ends up actually looking like this on wii u...
It just needs a decent framerate
Ok, I'm going to put on my conspiracy theory hat on for the footage of epic mickey 2 that just got posted. Here are my comments in that thread:
The shots at 45 seconds is obviously Wii version since you can see the cursor waving around. We also know that's not the PS3 version+move because it looks nothing like this:
But the 360 footage at 55 seconds doesn't look any different from the wii version. The lighting in the off screen shot above looks so much better than any of the footage in that video.
The discrepancy between the footage in the video and that off screen shot leads me to believe that might be a wii u screenshot. But then why would they make that version the only one with improved lighting/textures/etc.? It could very well be the blurry off screen shots that are playing tricks on my eyes, but nonetheless, I find it interesting to think about.
We'll have a better idea when they show it on gttv later today. They'll undoubtedly use the PS360 build if they show gameplay since NDAs would prevent them from using Wii U stuff. If the trailer looks like that screenshot above, then I'm wrong. If the discrepancy still remains, however, the screenshot above would definitely be from an unannounced platform, namely Wii U.
You mean zelda: OOt 15fps? I remember how fine I was back then with that.![]()
Haha, I was coming to post
The heads-down display is on the pad.Gahiggidy said:I say its a CGI cut-scene as there is no hud on the screen.

Cant wait for good-feel next game,now that silent hill 2 director works there,they should do a new eternal darkness,or another 2d plataformer.;
For some it was, but for other it wasn't. I think that the "collect-a-thon" platformer is what played a major role in the decline in popularity of the platformer. Platformers were very popular on the PSone/Saturn/N64, but it's popularity dropped dramatically last generation. It's come back in a big way this generation, but I don't think that it's a surprise that it did that thanks to games that aren't described as collect-a-thons.

I was about to refute everything you said, then I took a second look..I couldn't understand how you knew it was 360 footage, then I saw the "A".
The Wii one I was still unsure about, simply because the cursor seemed too stable to me for a Wii Remote although it did seem to move rapidly from middle to right at one point which made me unsure it was a controller. I guess it could have been a gyroscopic pointer and not IR. Gyro's seem to be a little more floaty and less erratic in my experience.
Couple of questions though"
1) Couldn't that screenshot be a PC version that's been unannounced, or even just their development environment that's working at super high res?
2) Couldn't the Wii stuff equally be PS Move?
And where do you see the cursor in the Darksiders 2 images? I can't seem to find it.

He does? When did that happen?
The chatter I have heard about NDAs expiring in April seems to mostly be about multiplatform games
There will be a big push for a lot of multiplats next month (AC3, Darksiders 2, etc.) and Nintendo doesn't want to be left out.
Supposedly.
We're not going to hear any news on Monday. Folks should stop raising other folk's hopes.
