@Dr.Chocobo: Maybe with the insane level of market penetration the DS is enjoying a game like the original FF:CC that employed wireless DS connectivity on the Wii would fare better. I know that I never had a GBA until FF:Tactics Advance came out anyway, so that kinda ruled out FF:CC for me personally, and then my brother who had a cube and a gba when it came out kind of ended up playing with whatever A-Holes had a GBA, and then was basically pushed off his own game when inevitably one of the other GBA-less people wanted to play (he lived in a Dorm Suite and was low man on the totem at the time). Since me and my GF have DSes already, a game like FF:CC, maybe even a bit more stripped down to up its appeal to non-gamers, could probably do better.

I'm also waiting to see if anybody tries to do it with the PSP, because I personally believe there is a TON of overlap between the PSP/PS3 user base, probably even more than DS/Wii at this point. I hope they do and pull it off well, because I think its a cool idea. The only downside is it will accelerate the appearance of a "gaming" Zune, an idea which scares me on many levels.

Condemned 2 will consume me, scare the hell out of me and leave me begging for more. Just like the first one. I can't wait (called GameStop -- where I have it pre-ordered, just in case they were going to do midnight sales, but as I am the ONLY person at the store to pre-order they chose to close down at 9PM, as regularly scheduled).

Ooooo weeee, man do I want FF CC but why in the hell is it not online?

I have a feeling the FF CC for the wii isn't going to be so golden either...I know many of you hated the original, but it's probably one of the best co-op RPGs. Too bad it didn't get a lot of good light do to the weird connectivity.

@Witzbold: While the Xbox and Xbox 360 *do* enjoy regular English language releases in Asia, it's still limited, and there are LOTS of titles that don't get English language releases (Beautiful Katamari, Ace Combat 6), even though they've already been localized for other regions. But thanks to region locking, I can't play them unless I buy a second, US region 360, which will then not be able to play my J/A games. WTF. It's not just games - I'm somewhat chuffed that I have all of the current gen consoles, and I'm not allowed to play my US DVDs on any one of them. Brilliant.

@Chef: I dont like playing shooters on the PS3.

I broke down and got rock band for the PS3. Dont have time to play so its sitting in its huge handleless box atm. Do hope to check it out sometime soon though.

Really wanted the 360 one but once fucking again with the stupid shit region lock.

Seriously those dipshits who decide this stuff need to know the more their game gets sold the better off they are. Dont block shit due to regioning. Since not everyone is going to import. Sides you are just kicking your self in the ass by pissing off your fanbase in the regions that have to wait even longer for it to be "localized". UK / AUSTRALIA knows this all too well. Im suprised they havent gone totally ballistic by now about this also.

If anything more positive word of mouth will be generated about the game. Granted it could work the other way around too, but its better than having a shitload of pissed off fans sitting around feeling like they are being screwed over and treated as second rate consumers.

THE DAY OF REGIONS IS FUCKING OVER

@Witzbold: I take it you got the 360 version then? All that RL stuff is pretty much why I went for the PS3 version of Army of Two, which was all English except for the dinky 9 page manual which was all Chinese.

@Fyren: There is a difference? They are the same thing (I have played both). It's called Winning Eleven in Japan and the US, and Pro Evolution in the UK/Europe. Now it's Pro Evolution in the US too (don't know about Japan).

In any case, the Wii version radically alters the gameplay. I am scared and excited at the same time, since I am so used to the "old" style, but the new style looks exciting.

@reddevil: Do they still carry the Pro Evo name?.

I wish they would just get rid of Pro Evo mechanics. While superficially similar, the game is slower, and just overall loses the feel of the Winning Series.

@Fyren:
Having bought the original at launch, I still havent finished it, and probably will never feel the need. Not saying that it is a poor game, it just didnt spark my interest. If you like the horror genre then i would recommend, (my 13 year old cousin was too scared to play the game after watching me for about 5 min), though at this point im sure you want find the original for less than $10 used..

@Kyle81: Heh, its funny because I just finally played a Ghost Squad machine yesterday at the local go-kart place for the first time, and I personally think with calibration the aiming is easier/more accurate on the Wii version. Have to see how I feel about HOTD on Wii, because I'm definitely buying it.

Also, HOTD fans: Sega claims that if HOTD2+3 sells well they'll give us HOTD4 AND Typing of the Dead for Wii, so if you care about that AT ALL I suggest you go grab a copy. You don't have to play it or anything, I know we're all in the grip of brawl fever, but yeah.

fuchikoma — Mon, 10 Mar 2008 15:45:39 MDT

Typing of the Dead was legendary...
I'd grab HotD if it has an autofire mode - when I played the arcades you had to hold the gun in one hand and go insane on the trigger with the other just to barely keep up and use minimal continues... with two players! If I had to pull the trigger for every shot on a home version, I would lose all use of my right hand. Other than that, it's awesome.

I saw a special where I can get original Condemned for free if I pick up Condemned 2.

Now, avoiding the original; can somone englighten me if the bonus package is worth it?.

If the first game was entertaining enough, I am assuming the sequel will be improved upon.

However, If I am paying 60 bucks for a gargabe franchise, even the free game isn't worth it.

not a bad week; i can try out ratchet & clank one that i missed, house of the dead warrants a rental, and wild ARMs will excite a few.

personally, im looking forward to Condemned 2, the first one was surprisingly good for a survivor horror no one seems to talk about (up till the crazy ending, natch, but still fun). This one, i was wary cause it seems to have jack to do with the first game but then, again, i wasnt married to the plot's direction, and EGM's review/the details on exploding baby grenades have me excited. Plus, its not like us horror junkies hae much go to go on...Alone in the Dark eventually, SH5 possibly this year? RE5 likely in '09, and Alan Wake, i know even less on. *sigh*
