I have my Wii hooked up with my home theater and it sounds awesome even if it's mono only. And, yea i truly dont care because my HT just pumps it.
The Wii version is awesome and the extra features make it (for me at least) make it worth it over the PS3 version, and right next to the 360 version. As for visuals, well, characters are stiff and kinda ugly, but it's not like you look at it. As for the on-screen guitar, meters and basically everything you do have to seek looks nice.
So, i dont know how it sound just with TV speakers, but if you have your Wii connected to a nice surround sound/ home theater system, I do recommend the Wii version. The rumble feels great (i really didnt think you'd be able to feel it, but you feel it and its strong), and you'll miss it (as well as the wiimote sound) everytime you play the 360 (or PS3 if you have that version).
Lack of advertising? Here's my thoughts on it:
Nintendo is barely even advertising games like we saw with MP3, and the reason being that they cant bring enough supply WITHOUT a bunch of good games… imagine if they advertised this kind of system selling games they way halo, or bioshock was advertised… and we all know that too much demand (as is WAYYY to much) can ultimately hurt Nintendo, or any company with that problem for that matter.
Your point is also in play here. The people that know and hear about this games, already know it's going to be great, and will buy it, but what about games like halo 3 and bioshock? That's why i think supply vs demand play such a higher role on this problem.
Blake: That ain't nothing when you said you were going to get hanged when you said you were looking forward to Nights more than Galaxy. I PICKED Battalion Wars 2 over Galaxy, heck I would buy Rabbids 2 over Galaxy. 🙂
You guys are my heroes for fixing the title/filename discrepancy! Beers all around!
What's this? An infendo radio that's on time?
Woo hoo! and my 50th segment 😀
Fire Emblem is not a Japanese RPG. If anything it's more like Chess, or the old Sierra Turn based Strategy games then anything like that guys. Please note this in the future. It's like calling Grand Theft Auto a JRPG.
And if the new and old suits for Mario and the Luigi thing haven't gotten you to be interested in Mario Galaxy then Atlantis 1982 you're dead inside.
Don't you mean Fish Shooting Chickens: The Eternal Battle of the Group Having What's Coming To Them As The Island Princess 4?
XD
Cool, Blake likes Muse. Man they rock
Great episode, this has made me extremely excited for Mario Galaxy.
one a few more days!
@fesworks – congrats, you've finally contributed a dollar!
JPElles: I just feel the game is rental material.
I don't quite understand the complaint about Guitar Hero being mono: aren't all guitar-playing simulations in mono?? I thought Jam Sessions for DS was in mono too! If you've ever seen a real electric guitar playing, by the way, you will see that they are in "mono" also: the stereo or even 5.1 surround sound comes with the mixing, not with the guitar performance! In concert recordings, the stereo effect comes from the performer moving around to where the microphones are onstage, but the sound from their instruments comes out to a single track! Otherwise, the guitar player would need an extra interface controller in the guitar to decide to which speaker the sound will come out every second while playing, which would be clearly impossible.
Are you sure this was a mistake? Are the other Guitar Hero versions in stereo or surround sound? That would be bizarre to me… what determines the sound location in those other versions??
The Phantom Menace was Darth Maul… because he was a menace to the Jedi, but only a manufactured distraction (hence the phantom part) to the real menace that was Darth Sidious and, eventually, Darth Vader.
Just thought you might want to know…
The caller's examples from movies were unfortunately bad, but the tendency is real: because those classic movies and books used the subtitles with such good effect, movie producers lately have been imitating them in new productions too. It also makes consumers think that these sequels are actually going to bring something new to the series.
WHAAAAT?! Guitar Hero III has mono-sound in game mode?
Reeeeeeally disappointing.
Did anyone else have the show cut off?
