What Would You Play?

By DotEd. Tuesday, 25. March 2008, 13:44:37

, , , , , , ,

We know what some of you aren't playing because of time or other constraints. But what about what you aren't playing because of system constraints?

With yesterday's reveal of Rock Band's (PS2 like) features for Wii, it seems developers are doing what they can to just get games onto Wii because the market demands it. But what about the other games? The GTA's, the Lost Planet's, the God of War's... (I'm trying to think of a third that isn't violent)... Forza's?

Is anyone not playing a game franchise that they would like to play because it isn't on Wii or DS (yet)?

The upcoming Banjo-Kazooie. Rock Band. That's about it.

It would have been Pro Evo Soccer for me, but it's finally being release on a Nintendo home console (this week :D )

I did like playing Assassin's Creed, and I think the upcoming Grand Tourismo could be great.

And I would love to have some of the 360's FPSs, but on the condition that they have Wii controls. Having played CoD4 on the 360 with normal controls makes me realise how perfect the Wii Remote is for FPSs. More please!

Metal Gear Solid 4 has been discarded for a Wii release ever (I heard it in a developer's interview) because of the humongous ammount of data in it (according to them, only BluRay discs can hold that) and they're not gonna split it into five or six discs for the Wii (and not even into two for 360).
For me it's been Ninja Gaiden (which we will thankfully have for the DS tomorrow), Kingdom Hearts (sorry, I like the Disney bunch!), and HighDef games (I need to take advantage of that HD TV I bought with my Wii :wink: ).

Katamari Damacy and
MGS2 - WHY is it not ported yet?!

Halo 123 but that would be highly unlikely .

Smash Bros for DS would be nice. Some say it wouldn't work, but I think it would be a little more natural on the handheld.

Valve games on Wii please. Mr Valve already said he was interested. I want Wii Orange Box!

Mario Kart Wii, quite possibly because it's not out yet.

2D Metroid reeking in quality for DS.

DS FPS with the solid gameplay of MPH, the graphical & audio wonderment of the Yoshi games, and a good tactical weapon set like (insert WWII game here). Basically a higher quality MPH with less floaty jumps and slow lasers.

Another one .
Perfect Dark Zero.com

oh man, i thought that perfect dark zero had way too much broken with it so in the end it was a let down - big time.

By CaptainSeagull, # 28. March 2008, 15:06:47

Just realised i let the predictive text get in the way Zero.com obviously mean to be just zero.
And by the way more to add to my list .
guitar Hero 1, 2 & rock the 80's .

I guess i'm the lucky one since we have all 3 consoles. I own the Wii, my oldest bro owns the 360, and the middle bro owns the PS3 and I do like playing all 3.

WiiDark: Buy Banjo-Kazooie and become my hero.

That's if they ever do create it or finish it. Cause as you already know, the original workers of Rare have left.

It's coming out at Christmas.

BE MY HERO.

Whats this a sneezy guitar-like instrument ?
Thru if i had to choose between Xbox 360 or Playstation 3 i would choose the Playstation 3 .

I actually dont want either one. there is no reason for ME to buy a 360, and besides being absolutely NO REASON WHAT SO-EVER to own a PS3, sony made it, which means it's held together by big-red, runs off of childrens souls (dog children! aka puppies!), and has one heck of a crappy waranty to back it up. OH and when it breaks (because the burning puppy souls melted the gum) they would want me to send it in for repairs which cost 20 dollars more than actually buying a new one. no spank you - no spank you very much.

Looks like you CaptainSeagull got a bit of a grudge aginst Sony .

edit
Corrected grodge to grudge

No, that's actually what would happen.

The only advantage to the PS3 is that it's a Blu-Ray player, and who really uses those anyway?
