Ryu\'s GCN\\X-Box impressions

Is Goku really Jumpman? I don\'t think so........he writes in a completely different style (more mild and in a more matter-of-fact way, with not so much annoying quoting and other shyit-tty insults)


Anyway, I am also dissappointed with the GameCube....crappy sales, and boring lauch games.....also, only 3 boring launcg games.....not good.

i take it your being sarcastic...
if you have any doubt that goku is jumpman,  then you obviously didn\'t know jumpman OR have missed out on our flame wars from a few nights ago.

Yes, I read your flame wars, and replied on your side, but it was too late. And yes, I kow Jumpman.......he\'s a little sh1t face who did REALLY annoying Nintendo-fanboy posts and replies. He also so quoted unimportant things in posts and wrote sarcastic replies to them, ect.

I just don\'t think Goku writes much like Jumpman at all.  Someone can be annoying without being like Jumpman, ya know. And, Goku denies being Jumpman..........

I\'m not questioning your opinion.  I said you were entitled to it. I\'m just taking it for what it is: yours.  And every preview hasn\'t only gushed about the graphics, GI and NextGen love the game and the graphics. I\'ve said this now for the thrid time.

Well there both annoying I know that for a fact.:thepimp: :thepimp: :thepimp: :thepimp:

Hm, IGN\'s impressions are in stark contrast to yours.  Yes they gushed about graphics..and about everything else in the games too.  Not that this invalidates your opinions, but just like I said your opinion seems to be in the vast minority.  

IGN on DOA3:
__________________________________________
he talks trash about Tekken and boasts his game as the best 3D fighting game. And after spending a few sleepless nights with our version of Dead Or Alive 3, I\'m inclined to agree with Mr. Itagaki that DOA3 is by far the most entertaining fighting game I\'ve played and one that comes with a good number of play options.


As I stated before in previous write-ups, the control in DOA3 is so responsive, it\'s almost as if the game is reading your thoughts

DOA3 is one of the most responsive 3D fighting games I\'ve played.

We\'ll be back with more preview updates on what\'s looking to be the best 3D fighting game ever.
____________________________________________

IGN on HALO:
____________________________________________
Halo will instantly make a legitimate claim as one of the best console first person shooters ever when it launches the Xbox on November 15. There\'s plenty of shooting from a first person perspective, but Halo\'s advantage is in how well it does everything else. The folks at Bungie have done an extraordinary job adding enough adventure, exploration and storytelling to the game that it truly represents how first person combat has evolved.

When all is said and done, the control scheme for the Marine Jeep, aka The Warthog, and really all of the vehicles in Halo, will go down as one of the most clever innovations in videogames.

The whole jeep/passenger system is actually just an example of Halo\'s overall brilliance that we\'ll get to in a later round of impressions.

But it\'s the vibrancy, attention to detail and inherent logic in the world of Halo that makes this game so engrossing. You can take over the different jeep positions, tell guys to get out of their seats and drive them around in this videogame because in real life you would be able to do the same thing. Bungie, the Xbox and Halo have broken down so many of the limitations that videogames have traditionally had up until now.

But like Ryu said in his DOA3 thread, DOA3 is not a big enough change to be considered the "next game" in the series.  TTT was just a intermission in the Tekken series between T3 and T4.  It was made only to make the fans happy, not to be bran new.

It took Street Fighter years and years to advance onto the next number.  There were probably more than 10 different versions of SF2, that were all a tiny bit different.  But when they switched over to SF3, it was a whole new game.

T2,T3,TTT All the same game to me ironfist. If you are gonna say doa3 has not changed then admit to tekken being the same for 3 strait games in the series.
I\'ll save my judgement on doa3 when I play it but no doubt ryu has pointed doa3 out for being cheesy as it always is.

It is pretty much confirmed fact, there are no real significant gameplay differences between DOA2 and DOA3.  It is a graphical upgrade and reinterpretation of 2, and as such, should not be called number 3.  That is misleading.  The numbered Tekken names each evolved the series from its predecessor.  Granted, TTT was a less significant change, and consequently was not called 4.  And yet, the gap separating the differences between DOA2 - DOA3 and Tekken 3 - TTT is vast.

Hmmmmmmmmmm..........good point.  Very good point, plus the doa3 producers was talking all that trash about tekken 4 and vf 4.

It is very questionable that they are putting all of their resources into prettifying DOA, instead of reinventing it as a sequel (and self advertised Killer App) title warrants!  And the fact that they have already begun trash talking their much more successful competitors... *shakes head*  Very unprofessional.

I can\'t argue with that both vf and tekken series had a lot more success than the doa series.  I still think doa3 will be awesome!!!!  AAA quaitly title imo, yes he may be unprofessional, but he sure knows how to use a system graphically abiititlies.

How much different is VF1 from VF4?  Very little.  Same for Tekken, but not quite as extreme.  And besides who cares really what it is called?  If it is fun, then huray!, we have a fun game to play.

It is my opinion, that DOA2 was a few tweeks away (less power here, faster there, slower here, etc) from being great.  If they did everything right DOA3 will be great, if they don\'t then it might not be great, but I\'ll wager it\'ll still be fun and it\'ll still sell systems.

And again from accredited sources, DOA3 backs up any trash that was talked.

I know people seem to have a problem since doa3 play like doa2?   Like I said I consider that a good thing.  Yes doa3 will be an amazing game.

I\'m wondering if everyone else played the same DOA2 as I did, IMO it was a ****ty game compared to all the other fighters
