| According to IGN, the new true Star Fox for GC will be unveiled at E3...but only the multiplayer aspects. Sounds good...I liked Star Fox 64, though this has never been a franchise I really got into, but it'll still be cool to see where this game is headed. I hope the landmaster tank is back. Knowing Nintendo now though, the whole thing at E3 will be going on and on about their "awesome LAN gameplay" or something. Also, a new Pilotwings game! Factor 5's familiarity with flight-based games puts it in a prime position to make a GameCube sequel to the franchise, and it's unparalleled technical know-how all but guarantees that such a follow-up will sport untraditionally remarkable graphics to boot. Ugh, it's by those guys? I don't care if they're "technically savvy" because the biggest thing they get wrong with their star wars flying games is the physics of the crafts, which feel floaty and artificial! And that's a must to get right in Pilotwings. --- The Scientist knows best... "Look out for F-zero: the movie and my personal favorite, Tetris: Blocks of Doom." -jman009 |

Control in turning is basically the same whether in space or landin RL. And they DO turn on a dime. That's just the thing. The control usually feels too tight, and modelistic. There isn't much sense that you're really in the world when all the craft turn so suddenly without much consideration for physics. Plus almost all the craft handled the same way. --- The Scientist knows best... "Look out for F-zero: the movie and my personal favorite, Tetris: Blocks of Doom." -jman009 |

| So...am I wrong in my belief that the Pilotwings games so far have all been tech demos for Mode 7 and the N64 polygon worlds, and that one can't survive if it's introduced in the midlife of a console, because without the wow of the graphics people will realize all you do is fly around? Aaaaanyway....poo. The Metal Gear Solid game for the GC has been revealed and it really is a remake of the first, not a new one exclusive to the GC. But I guess an exclusive MGS for Gamecube is kind of far out there an idea...especially with the sales results of Resident Evil's exclusivity too apparent. --- "Miyamoto got the inspiration for Pikmin from his garden.

| So...am I wrong in my belief that the Pilotwings games so far have all been tech demos for Mode 7 and the N64 polygon worlds, and that one can't survive if it's introduced in the midlife of a console, because without the wow of the graphics people will realize all you do is fly around? They were tech demos in several ways, but there were ALSO solid games underneath. It wasn't like after you saw the new tech stuff they were doing, the game was over. There were definitely things to do, certainly in Pilotwings 64 (I'm not as familiar with the SNES incarnation). Mars, you are right I think that there would be some trouble introducing it during a console's mid-life, but I don't think that's because the games are flimsy and were only there for tech demos. I think it's because that's what most PEOPLE would think. Pilotwings 64 as an example. Even if it was released in '98 or so, the solid gameplay and challenges would still be there, and enjoyed by people. Though the 3D wouldn't feel as new to them. When it came out in '96 though, they got the game, and somewhat of a "bonus" because of the new experience of the 3D graphics to many. So for attracting gamers, it definitely strikes me as a great series to use as a launch title anyway, and apparently that's not going to be the case with the GC version. And all you do is NOT just flying around. In Pilotwings 64 there were many things to do, depending on what craft you chose. As the hanglider you might have to ascend so many feet and then after reaching that, land on a landing pad correctly. Another mission might have you take a snapshot of a whale in the sea before landing. A gyrocopter mission might have you fly through rings under the mississippi river, or shoot missiles at a giant robot marching through the midwest. The jetpack challenged players to land on targets carefully, go through rings, or even fly through a narrow horizontal cave in one situation. That's not counting the bonus modes either. The paradiving (or whatever it's called) mode challenges you to freefall in formation with other gliders above the clouds (the better your form, the higher the points) before opening out a parachute and landing. Another mode makes the player a living cannonball as you fly out of a cannon to hit a target in the distance, and you have to take things like wind speed and direction into account. Another lets you use the jumble hopper, which lets you actually hop across the ground. And of course, "just flying around" is also a possibility, especially with "bird man" which gave your character wings to fly around with, and take snapshots for fun. There were a lot of things to fly around and see (especially in the Little States island, which was a replica of the US). So anyway, yeah there is tons to do besides just flying around. But unless it's showing off new technology, it's not the type of thing that will grab most people. Got wind waker today. I must say the double disc idea is weird. it comes in a flimsy flap of plastic. got to windfall need a sail. so on. Bah, Europe gets a plastic flap? We got a regular GC-style box for our bonus disc! And it took me 3 days to get as far as you are, though I of course went quite slowly... The Landmaster was damned cool, but I'd much rather have the sub from the Aquas board. Eh....the Blue Marine WAS cool but it didn't do much different than the Arwing. It was mostly used instead just to have a mission underwater, which wouldn't make sense for the Arwing. The Landmaster though opens up all kinds of interesting gameplay possibilities, for a rail shooter. The double tap to roll in either direction, and holding both Z and R down to hover I thought were just great additions. The landmaster levels were my favorites, actually. There's so much potential for more here that I guess I'd much rather see the landmaster again than the Arwing's underwater version. --- The Scientist knows best...

| I got the first pearl. I must say I was very impressed with how the dungeon looks. how it twists and turns from out and inside of the dungeon. nice. played around with the tingle tuner that too is a nice piece of kit but I haven't actually found any treasure even with Tingle. I just can't get the hang of it. I just found "elvis" and achieved the "song of passing".

| The first dungeon was a great, well, "first" dungeon. It really did about all a good introductory dungeon should do, without feeling like "training" (which seems like it was more regulated to the Forsaken Fortress). Only real problem with the dungeon maybe is that it didn't seem to have any puzzles or aspects to the layout that really took advantage of linking multiple rooms together. Which is a common and welcome thing in Zelda games: pushing a block to a lower floor in LttP, dropping a giant spike-shaped pillar in OoT's fire temple, changing the water at Great Bay Temple in MM to change the whole route through rooms, etc. But Dragon Roost lacked that, however more than likely I'd assume there will be some better puzzles of that nature later in the game. One nice thing about the puzzles so far though is many of them seem very "natural"- in that, they seem to make more logical sense than we've perhaps seen in the past. --- The Scientist knows best...

| I personally think this year will be a lot better, at least on the GC side. Before it was mostly just Mario, Zelda, and Metroid. but now there are a fair number of Nintendo's "lesser" franchises, some of which look very interesting, like Mario Kart, and probably at least one completely knew game we don't know about at all, which always is exciting to anticipate. For the PS2, I can't wait to see some movies of Gradius V in action, and the new Castlevania, while 3D, will probably be a big draw. A couple years ago when I was a senior and it was an "awards day" I did the exact same thing for E3- hung out in the back of the school computer lab, downloading videos. One teacher finally came in there late in the afternoon and told me I'd better go. o_O --- The Scientist knows best...

| Was ISS2 the new game, or....? Legacy of Kain...there's been several games in that series now, and by several (well at least two) different developers. To say the least, it confuses me a little. I've read hardly anything about Wario Ware, except just the basic premise. I should read up more about that game too. Like I think I said before, it does sound a little awkward (I don't know how long the novelty would last, for me anyway), but all the same it sounds like one of those things that is absolutely a must *play*. --- The Scientist knows best...

| Hmm, looks like Sega isn't going to be merging with Sammy after all. I can't blame them, if the result would have ended up with a name like "Sega-sammy". Infogrames too, is now going to call themselves "Atari"- they got ahold of the rights to that name a couple years ago, and seem to be taking advantage of it, though as far as i can tell, it actually has a negative connotation among many gamers. Maybe some others will think it's cool though. "Press start to begin your underground gaming." BWAH Though as Mars said last night, "What kind of name is Infogrames, anyway?" For hilarious developer names though, "Brownie Brown" still takes the cake. Or uh, brownie, in this case. --- The Scientist knows best...

| Miyamoto was said to be working on a new game for E3...well, this could be more on that (if true, you decide), thanks to the gaming-age forums (and thanks to evolutionseed for posting this on gamefaqs from there): New "Fear" and "Ground Zero" details! Many of you may have noticed a little blurb in this month's issue of GamePro, regarding new Nintendo Franchises, "Fear" and "Ground Zero." Man when you guys get a little tidbit of pre-E3 Nintendo news you guys really go crazy. Anyways to quell the flow of e-mails I'm going to shut you all up with a little bit more info, and some answers to your questions. Get em while they're HOT! First of all, there are two games, one called "Fear" and one called "Ground Zero." Both names we assume to be only code names at the moment. Fear is being developed internally at Nintendo and Miyamoto is heading the project himself. The game follows "a young and sheltered boy who challenges himself to overcome his many fears." From what we have heard the game will be level based with each level ending with him overcoming a fear of some sort. There will be a theme to each level, for example we have heard of a level where he overcomes his fear of heights by making his way up a treacherous mountain. Ground Zero is actually a joint development by Nintendo and an unnamed second party developer or two. A game that will "be bigger than anything you have seen so far on Gamecube." That is all we were told. For more information wait till E3. This fear idea sounds really great. At first, it sounds like it might be a clever excuse just to create worlds with different settings: high on a mountain, deep under a sea, a dinosaur jungle, etc. However, if this game follows through with powerful and convincing expressions and feelings of emotion (as in SMS and WW, such as feeling happy jumping under the sun, the sense of discovery in WW, etc), this "fear" element could be a very effective way to go about building a game world, indeed. Of course, there's likely to be more "innovation" in the game than even that (if it even exists), so we'll just have to wait and see. What it DOES sound like though, is this game could go over better with a larger audience. For example when Pikmin was introduced, many dismissed it just because it was a "strategy game"- they just couldn't accept it along the same lines as Mario and Zelda- though this Fear idea sounds like it might be more suitable for that. Ground Zero? Sounds like Blast Corps! --- The Scientist knows best... "ah pre-E3, like the froth of a soft drink. it doesn't get any frothier than this." -jman009 |

| Ground Zero is said to be in development by a second party, and since then I've heard on the boards that Zoonami (founded by former Rare employees) is behind the game. I checked Zoonami's site and couldn't find anything, but interestingly their "secret project" they refer to in code-name as "Game Zero"- not that different from "Ground Zero", of course. --- The Scientist knows best...

| Wow... that video was the best videogame movie ever. Konami did the complete opposite of what they usually do. They showed a lot of moving stuff, and absolutely no talking, and no sketches. I liked that movie. I wish it was higher quality, though. But that movie seemed very action-oriented. Where the MGS2 movie was quiet and stealthy, this one is pretty much nothing but shootouts between Snake and guards, and Olga and guards. And that's another thing. Olga? Why is Olga here? What the hell is going on? And why did Snake make that sound like Vamp at the beginning, after he got done eating the snake? And they spent a lot of time in the water. My guess is that this was a joke video released by Konamithrough somebody else in order to freak some people out. I doubt this will be the final product, maybe the jungle thing will though.

Snake is in some combat situation in the jungle. There was no major villains shown or anything.

| Thanks for the bump, MM. I guess KoG is already writing the review, though I probably would have said C as well. Second choice I think would be A. I haven't played and am not really interested in metal of honor, though I know KoG is a fairly big FPS fan (correct me if I'm wrong!) and he'd probably be able to do a pretty good review on that. As for gaming, not too much to mention. I'm sure some of you have checked out IGN's top 100 list. Not only is it flat out tough and awkward to rank games in such a manner to begin with, but even worse when you present conflicting criteria like IGN does. OK, so Super Mario Bros. is #1, because it was so "influential". Then why isn't Legend of Zelda on the list instead of Link to the Past? Oh, because LttP is better? Ah...so then why's Super Mario Bros. 3 nowhere to be seen? You see the problem. Traditionally Nintendo (and I believe some other companies) have pre-E3 press briefings the day before the show. And the show starts on Wednesday this year, meaning (with all luck) by around noon on Tuesday the news will start trickling on in! On another note, I'm still planning on getting a PS2 in the near future. However there's fair word out there that there will be console price cuts after E3 again (which wouldn't surprise me) so I'm mostly just waiting for that. --- The Scientist knows best...

SWEET! http://www2u.biglobe.ne.jp/~nanko/images/9908.jpg Pokemon Colosseum: http://www2u.biglobe.ne.jp/~nanko/images/9907.jpg Kirby's Air Ride (looks A LOT better than the few previous shots we've seen, and it looks like his powerups will be pretty important in this): http://www2u.biglobe.ne.jp/~nanko/images/9902.jpg Earthbound Zero for GBA and something else: http://www2u.biglobe.ne.jp/~nanko/images/9905.jpg More StarFox: http://www2u.biglobe.ne.jp/~nanko/images/9906.jpg --- The Scientist knows best...

| Damn, I missed a whole page, didn't know there were Sonic Heroes screenshots. Oh, that Metroid game is the sequel to Metroid Fusion. Mario & Luigi RPG? Weird. Think it'll be like SMRPG, Paper Mario, or something different? Ah well. I'm kinda pissed because E3 is a week early this year, during my finals. If anything of note develops, hopefully you or Cribbs or someone will post it in my Stuff topic if I'm not around, because that's always the first topic I check. However, I always end up checking this one anyway as long as I see it. With E3 coming, I'm sure it'll be on Page 1 a lot, so that's good. Oh, and waiting for the PS2 price cut is a good idea. You've already waited this long, and nothing great is coming out for it anytime soon. If you find them cheap and have the time, you could probably time it so that you finish MMX 4-6 right before X7 comes out. Cheap plug for my topic; I may not have gaming news anyone cares about like this one does, but holy hell do you get your Megaman fix. --- Polas' Goodtime Retro Cafe: http://www.angelfire.com/ny5/polas/ Countdown to Polas Day: 14 days |

| Metroid "Zero Mission", eh? Maybe it will come out this year, instead of to coincide with Metroid Prime 2's release in 2004. Regardless, probably something to keep an eye on, and I can't imagine what the storyline will be now. Hopefully they don't mess it up too much. Really hard to tell what the Mario/Luigi RPG will be like, based on those two tiny shots. The style seems to sort of resemble paper mario, but knowing Nintendo it's probably got some new spin to it. Nice to see BOTH Mario Bros. sort of take a leading role here, how long has it been since we've seen that? Polas: Yeah, my finals are over the next 3 days too, which makes E3 a little inconvenient, but I should still have most of Wednesday open to post things, which is the first day of E3. I'll probably post in this topic or yours, if applicable. I was going to post these above links in yours actually, but it turned out most of it was just starfox and pokemon. I suppose MegaMan X7 will be playable at the show? Well anyway, anything about THAT goes in your topic, for sure. --- The Scientist knows best...
