Wii Comes of Age

Oh, c'mon. You have to admit, it'd be totally sweet... Swing the wii-mote and nunchuk for blade swings, quick-time kill events would be more visceral and fun... like pull the controllers away from one another to rip a little soldier in half, or twist and yank to tear the head off of a medusa...l33tabix said:
^^; I've given some thought to this. It's probably my biggest never-gonna-come-true video game fantasy ever. ^^;
Nah, I don't think so... God of War has never really been about precision, and the fighting style is basically just wildly swinging around. It wouldn't be bad if it just had simple wiimote-nunchuk-wiimote or wiimote-wiimote-nunchuk type combos, with the stick for movement and buttons for more precise things like magic, grabbing, jumping and whatnot.
I think its going to be a good thing. One of the biggest markets for games is the 19 - 24 year old, Students with disposable incomes and all that. realistically it's an awesome idea, as long as it gets good promotion the Wii might finally be able to have a foothold in "hardcore" game market. As long as the Wiimote and that works well with it that is.

If 100 Escapists sent in e-mails or letters raging about a certain thing (made up, of course), with the letters and e-mails containing enough information to write a full article on, what are the odds that The Daily Mail would go to print with it? Low, but not so low that it would be an exercise in pointlessness. They aren't exactly world-reknowned for their fact checking;
"The 13-year-old schoolboy used petrol to set light to three vehicles after playing on the violent GTA 4: Liberty City game on his home PC." [http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1059786/Teenager-torches-cars-watching-Grand-Theft-Auto-video-game.html]
That is from an article with the headline reading that the boy set fire to cars after "watching Grand Theft Auto video game"
The frightening thing is that two of us could do it, if we just included some of their "buzzwords" like "asylum seekers".Johnn Johnston said:
The question is, would the mods mind if I started a thread to test this... experiment? Yeah, let's call it an experiment.LewsTherin said:
But what exactly are we going to complaint about? Maybe we can make the people who keep yelling "murder simulator" everytime they see a game look evil by writing that videogames improve hand-eye co-ordination and that the naysayers are employed by tv executives who fear loosing their viewers to people with consoles and therefor try to destroy the market and are partialy responsible for the economic crisis. Yes, that would work.
Needs to be more subtle. How about the British Film Industry is falling on hard times due to the credit crunch, and with the writer's strike/postal strike taking hold, the film industry are using cheap labour from the pool of illegal immigrants to try and kickstart the industry.
The problem being that Eastenders and the rest will be featuring more stories on asylum seekers, with shows like "The Bill" showing a positive side to rescuing people from fascist regimes?

Something like that. Or something to tickle their "coming over 'ere, stealin' our jobs" gland. Perhaps something about illegal immigrants being given priority over UK-born citizens in job applications in a new Government-run scheme? We'd need something to make them hurry; perhaps saying that we'd go to The Mirror if the story hadn't been run within three days, in order to "get the truth out to the people as fast as possible".
