FYI Vagiant, BioShock is essentially System Shock 3. Hmmm.......

But yeah, a lot of it has to do with the Wii controls as this is the first real shooter experience on consoles, as Red Steel was basicall a preview of what it would be like.

You're right. I absolutely had NO idea Bioshock is System Shock 3. Only a select chosen few do really know this fact. Thanks for letting me know orange is a warm color.

There is a difference in saying this is the first real shooter experience for consoles, and stating this includes a different approach towards hand-eye coordination/interaction with the game. I'm pretty damn sure that using a grappling beam with a remote-control doesn't make a video game more of a SHOOTER than it does of it being a more UNIQUE approach towards game/user interactions.

It had to be clarified in a private message that yes, franchises/series such as this one have milked the cow beyond belief. That maybe, just maybe it could be time to try and move on to something different, new. I wonder if it would have been more enlightening for you if I had posted something a tad more constructive like, oh let's say, "Wow. I can't wait for this game to be released, yippy!" ...which can be seen throughout the initial pages of this thread. Quite productive. I was also told that "pussies" sent out the reports about the aformentioned comment you replied to. Because of this? I'm not too sure. It's been a while, and I don't believe I've witnessed some of the most definite changes in the gaming forums on this website.

I don't how how the fuck you managed to generate all that out of an image of a psyduck with his eyes popping out of his head

Maybe arguing isn't your stronger point :gonk:

Hey leave him alone. It took him six days to come up with that argument you know. lol

Edsplosive Sep 5, 2007 10:09 PM

I'm sure that in your image, it would have taken you that long, Slayer.

I don't mind seeing Elixir backing off his reaction to my initial post to begin with. It's his type. And yes, absolutely. Arguing/discussing is most definitely the weakest of all my points. Perhaps you would do well to only enlighten me with every post you make from now on.

I didn't have time to finish the game yet. I'm still at the first planet but, having played the 2 earlier games I can only say that the series is even better on Wii.

Anyway, I was just sad having to kill the "icy man", lol. He was cool =(

So, I am in need of some green credits. Who would be so nice as to send me some?
I myself have 16 vouchers if anyone needs them.

so.. I dont have a wii yet.. but I loved the first 2 primes. I hear you can jump into this game w/o any knowledge of the other 2? So is dark samus not in this one or something?

I played MP1, haven't played MP2. I would say yes you could jump into MP3 without having played any of the earlier games, although the scanning and morph-ball concepts will be strange and alien at first.

WraithTwo Nov 20, 2007 08:03 PM

There's references in the story to the other 2, certainly, and yes, Dark Samus is still around, but the game can stand on it's own. Although, I'd probably say less so than the other two; simply because this is the most story driven installment, although most/all of it is picked up pretty easily.

You almost do have to play the first two MP games to really appreciate the third. Although it can stand on it's own, the first two are interesting prequels that help add to the overall story. I would recommend playing those two first or at least watching the endings on youtube or something.

Agreed, and if you play just 3, you won't be playing the best in the series. So suck it up, realize the controls don't suck, and revel in the glory of one of the best 2D to 3D transitions in history.

rpgcrazied Nov 27, 2007 02:09 PM

so is it shorter than prime 2? I hear it has multiple planets you can visit.. but are really small? I have played both primes.. the only reason i want a wii is for this and mario galaxy.. maybe the new FE game

WraithTwo Nov 27, 2007 09:36 PM

I think it's the shortest Prime, but it could have also just been me getting better at games.

Torte Nov 28, 2007 02:52 AM

Didn't know ppl could get worse at playing video games... oh wait, they can; next-gen games are typically cake.

But you're right bro - shortest Prime, and most lacklustre, too. It never gripped me once and it's not like I replayed Prime 1/2 lately either. Controls are top notch, but the story sucks (lore is congested as always) and the structure too defined for a Metroid game; same sequence of step-wise problem solving, get new weapon from bounty hunter, open seed, fight big baddie, R&R.

At least the fetch quest at the end wasn't lengthy, but that's a bad thing in my books. Bosses sucked as well apart from maybe two, and yeah, I'm talking veteran/hyper mode too. Good to see Retro are taking a break since they really need to up the ante a bit more. They tease at HDRL, too, WTF?! Can't wait for a Gears of War HD-looking Prime, though, but in say five years or so.

Ballzdeep24 Nov 28, 2007 03:59 AM

I think they have something good with the first person shooter approach. Although I must agree with Torte. The games have gotten alot shorter and I just dont ever seem to be to much into the game to play it as much to beet it. The people at gamestop looked at me like I had a dick growing on my forehead when I wanted to trade it in. Im sorry guys, its just to boring for me. Back to playing Rainbow Six Vegas I go :P
