Gaming set back another 10 years

[tsolless]

...and these guys are developing the next metroid game. God help us all.

Have we all forgotten zero suit samus already?

I don't think they can do all that much more there.

Heh...Zero Suit aside, Samus is still one of the few positive female role models in gaming. I doubt Nintendo well let them 'Team Ninjafy' her.

How is she a positive female role model? She is just as exploited as any other female heroine.

After seeing this I think it's safe to say that there will definitely be a scene in Metroid M where Samus fights in her underwear.

I wasn't until recently that the exploitation began. She had quite a long run without having to show much cleavage.

I'd like to point out that this isn't the first game to use SixAxis in such a way. That honor goes to MGS4. Because nothing says "I'm fighting a global conspiracy" like using a controller to make boobs jiggle.

MGS4 Used it in a simular way? huh...Can't remember that.

Does no one remember being able to unlock samus in a bikini? Might be 8 bit exploitation, but it is still exploitation.

I wish gaming did get set back 10 years - game quality was far higher then.

 

[Symp4thy]

Moving the controller makes her chest blurry?

 

[Aiden Rebirth]

NO. no, no no no no no no no...

this is what makes news corporations hate us.

Because she's an incredibly independent and capable woman who avoids being objectified 90% of the time. Its not the emphasis of her character at all.

Well, Samus's boobs haven't really played much of a role in the Metroid mythos yet. It could be a fascinating expansion of the character.

80s-impaired Japan or no, Team Ninja are just perverts.

I don't think Nintendo will allow them to do things like this to Samus. Even though they're being more lax about M rated games on their systems, they don't make any themselves, and I doubt they'll let Samus suffer any major indignities while in her Zero Suit.

This kind of "feature" is really unnecessary. It's development time that could be better spent working out bugs or tightening core game play mechanics.

If you REALLY MUST stare at a pair of bouncing breasts, you're on the *gasp* INTERNET... where you can do so until your heart's content and not have to cough up $50 - $60 for it!

You're gonna blame this on me, huh?

Metroid's Best Time endings aside, I'm sure Samus is the kind of character that would kick your teeth in for staring at her in such a perverted manner. They glorify her as a heroine, but she IS still a bounty hunter after all.

I have to agree that she's still a positive female role model regardless. Strong, capable, independent, and would most likely atomize characters like every woman in Dead or Alive with extreme glee... I know I would.

Please tell me you're joking, OP. PLEASE.

There is no way someone can be that stupid.

 

[Merteg]

Wow, hilarious fail.

I bet that will boost their sales by about %50.

 

[More Fun To Compute]

This doesn't bother me at all, or make me want to play the game for that matter. Gaming being set back 10 years would also be a marked improvement for a lot of developers.

 

[Supreme Unleaded]

ha, thats funny, now it wont suprise me if they give you the interactive sex like in God Of War 2.

That does make me shamefull that im a gamer though.

 

[Babypummeler]

NOoOo.. NOOOO *hand slowly reaching for bfg next to computer* NOOOO STOP GOD NO WHAT IS THE WORLD COMING TOO? *Mr. right hand becomes sentient and kills everyone involved with team Ninja*
damnit, not again...

 

[Angus565]

So here's my question: what exactly does that motion do when you play as a male character?

Something about meat...sword...

...


ugh...

I might just kill myself...(Pukes)

 

[VanityGirl]

LoL, that's so funny.
Didn't team Ninja get enough bouncing boobies with the DoA stuff?
