I'm in a very news mode today so I've been posting the latest
on video game industry developments anyway it seems Dead Space
is heading to the Wii.

Here's the link: http://blog.wired.com/games/2009/02/ea-ups-commitme.html

I personally think this is a bad idea on par with Dead Rising: Chop till you Drop
but that's just me.

That's my mentality. I wonder if it will work with one of those RE4 gun things?

It's time for another Good Idea, Bad Idea.

Good Idea: Making an awesome first-person shooter.
Bad Idea: Making an awesome first-person shooter, on the Wii.

This concludes another Good Idea, Bad Idea.

although funny, this reeks of fanboi-ism.... who loses if it gets ported to the Wii? no one really, unless it's a particularly bad port that no one buys, and then the loser will be EA... but Wii owners won't be out anything; it's just one more game to add to their library... 360 and PS3 owners won't be out anything, but the fanbois will get butthurt, just like when FFXIII & Tekken 6 were announced to be multi-platform...

bottom line: fanbois get hurt. i see no problem with that...

If they do it well it might be good. Graphically, the Wii isn't top of the range but they can get some games to look nice enough (Metroid Prime 3) with enough bloom. If they do this right it could be OK, but if they get lazy and try to distract players from the bad controls and terrible graphics with "HEY LOOK YOU CAN SWING YOUR ARM AND STUFF HAPPENS!" like most games on the Wii, it simply won't be any good.

Ya, it wont have as good of graphics as the 360, and will most likely have bad controls. But who cares? It's a chance of a decent game on the wii.

I agree completely. Anything that stabs fanboys on any consoles through their hate-spamming hearts can only be a good thing.

The developers could always just make the game darker so it doesn't look as crummy.

Or drown it with bloom so we can't see it. Wait, can the Wii even do that?

So, are you all saying that Dead Space's sole redeeming quality is pretty graphics? Thanks for the heads up.

Nope its a truly unique game in that everything it does it does really well. Bar one or two frustrating on rails sections it's as close as I've seen to a technically perfect game since Super Mario World.

And it's such such fun blowing limbs off necromorphs... think Resi 4 on the nostromo with added amputation.

i think they are implying that the Wii ALWAYS has badly implemented controls, and therefore we must think of something that could partially redeem it

Excusing your spelling and grammar, I like your mentality. Seriously, the only reason people pile hate onto the Wii is because it gets sales. Not saying the others don't (well, one doesn't, isn't, and is really going to have to get a hold on a Killer App to survive the Console War), but consistent hating on an industry that caters mostly to casual gamers is really bugging me.

Yeah the Wii motion plus that was revealed last June during E3 but that's neither here nor there.

Not always, I tried out the Wii with an open mind, and yeah it was fun to play the tennis game drunk at parties for ten minutes but trying to play resi 4 or any more.. involving games on it was just a nightmare... not sure what the mario and zelda games feel like on the console but I definately won't be buying one to find out.
