  1. Chances are, it's because after a year and a half of work, they only have about 8 definitive tracks that are going to be on it, and they'll probably be released on-site here seperate because of a lack of team cohesion on the overall project. Just my opinion, I could be wrong.

  2. I haven't played the Wii game yet' date=' but I remember hearing hype that it was supposed to feature destructible terrain from moves like Earthquake.

    Did that actually get implemented?

    If so, that's a step in the direction of what you're talking about. Not to mention there are already sandstorms, rain, and bright sunshine that affect poke'mon and their moves. I could see cave battles weakening grass types or fighting in water increasing the speed of water types, unless an ice type was present.

    Although actually targeting the terrain for attacks would start to get overly complicated.[/quote']

    I don't have a Wii (yet, but i will when SSBB gets released here), but I'll probably be getting Battle Revolution for it (so's I can get Electvire and Magmortar through it :-P ) but I'll be sure to let you know (if nobody else does first).

    The weather effects were good, and a step towards what they're building to if this gets implemented. But there would obviously be target-sensitive hotspots that could be picked up upon, if you know what I mean. Think Pokémon goes Final Fantasy XII, with the caves 3D-explorable and being able to see Pokémon before you battle them, and the like. Now that would be an ultimate game, but unfortunately, would be asking too much from a handheld console.

  3. I can honestly say I love the pokemon games,

    But I can also honestly say I hate the way Nintendo goes with them.

    Agreed.

    The whole 2 versions Idea is fine; after all, it makes it worth seeking out others with the other version to Catch 'em All! But I never liked the 3rd game, excepting Yellow, because that was really different. Although emerald brought a lot of new stuff, I only got it because you can catch all three legendaries in it.

    Yellow was different because instead of taking the game standard, it tended to follow the same route as the Anime did, and it worked pretty well. The Anime was popular, so they decided to do a special version with Pikachu as the starter. The word "Win" best describes that.

    What I really want to see is a battle with Team Rocket (Or galactic, or magma, or universe, or whatever they want to call themselves) INSIDE A POKEMON CENTER! Epic! W00t! Or at least something to make it unusual and crazy!

    That's something the 3D games should think about: Environmental Hazards. Think about it, using your team of 6 in coalition with each other all at the same time. Get these right, for possible examples.

    Water-based gym: basically a big swimming pool, so there's nowhere for Pokémon to stand. Now, apart from maybe the Lotad evolution chain, not a lot of say, Grass types would be able to swim efficiently. So here's an idea: Call out someone like Lapras and make a block of ice using an Ice Beam, as a platform for other Pokémon to stand on, meaning they don't have to focus on swimming and their full potential of using their attacks like Giga Drain, Razor Leaf or Vine Whip would work a bit better.

    Inside a cave: I'll go for grass-type again for convenience's sake. Group of Zubats attack, so Bayleef uses Razor Leaf to cut a stalactite from the roof of the cave, catches it with Vine Whip and uses it to slash at the Zubats until they faint or retreat.

    It might rely too much on set-pieces I know, but you have to admit, it would still be kinda neat.

  4. I'm inclined to agree with you TD. A G/S/C remake would probably suck. While they did have their insanely cool moments, they just wouldn't be right to bring forward.

    While FR/LG were valid remakes that were in need of being done (to complete the Pokedex), G/S/C would serve no purpose to that. If it came out (and I'm a big Pokémon fan), I wouldn't buy it. I'd sooner dig out one of my 2 Game Boy Colors and play the original cartridges.

  5. Well, looks like Sammy L.'s gonna be in a lot more superhero movies seeing as all these marvel movies are set in a continuous universe where they all link in with each other.

    Although Ultimate Nick Fury was directly based upon Samuel L, there must have been a clause in his image rights contract that said something along the lines of:

    If we use the "Ultimate" Nick Fury character in any upcoming Marvel movie, you have automatic first preference on whether you want to take the role on or not.
  6. I quite liked that, and as you said, it's still work-in-progress so hopefully we'll see more of that so it doesn't end straight on that note or anything.

    Ire you going to try and implement other "bike" themes from the other Pokémon games into this, or are you sticking to Red/Blue/Yellow? And will this be included in the MissingNo Tracks OCR project, or is this just a little something you were working on by yourself?

  7. Marvel's building up to the Avengers movie in 2012, and everyone that's in the Avengers-based movies (Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Thor, Captain America) will all be reprising their roles from their individual movies. It's partly the reason why Marvel waited this long to bust out the big names they really wanted to focus on.

    The movie rocked for one reason. Marvel Studios themselves made it. They didn's sell some of their comic properties as they knew they'd be building up to the Avengers, and with Cap high up on the roster, they particularly didn't want to sell him up the creek.

    And you have to love Stan lee's cameo where Stark mistakes him for Hugh Hefner. Brilliant. Overall though, Downey Jr as a recovering alcoholic? That's genius in itself.

    As for the Nick Fury thing, at least it's promising to be better than David Hasselhoff's turn as him in the made-for-TV movie that Fox had about 10 or so years ago.

  8. Big shouts go out to Quinton Flynn, David Hayter and John DiMaggio. Some of the more recognised names in VG VOs. Though Dwight Schultz (Howlin' Mad Murdoch from the A-Team) done well as O'Aka XXIII inFinal Fantasy 10 as well.

    I'm not particularly big into knowing who does VOs in cartoons and stuff, but I still find it funny that Seth Green (the guy that made Robot Chicken) does voicework in Family Guy, and they referenced it in Blue Harvest.

  9. Aquaman's just the guy everyone takes the piss out of really, although I'll give it to him that he's quite cool and all that, he'll probably make it based on popularity rather than the fact that he's got a high standing in the DC universe.

    Although if you take things that way, I forgot to mention Nightwing. He'd probably make it before Booster Gold would.

    Still, you have to admit, canonical or not, Rorschach and V would fit the dark MK setting more than the majority of the mainstream heroes or the Justice League/Teen Titans.

  10. Big Giant Circles' "Every Story Begins With A Name" (Opening:Bombing Mission FFVII) off Voices of the Lifestream totally owns the Black Mages version on this album IMO.

    Seconded. Although Premonition was pretty damn awesome, the rest of the album was a bit of a letdown really. It just wasn't as good as The Skies Above if you ask me.

  11. Probably not. I can see this game totally bombing. As much as I like DC Comics and MK in their own seperate respects, putting them together should never have happened.

    How and ever, if the teaser site, http://www.worldscollide.com is anything to go by, by clicking Sub-Zero's eye, 16 "?" blocks show up. Chances are, Batman's eye will have 16 as well. So the big question is: who'll make it, if it's 16 per side?

    Here's my dream teams:

    Team MK:

    Shao Kahn

    Shang Tsung

    Johnny Cage

    Liu Kang

    Kano

    Scorpion

    Sub-Zero

    Goro

    Rayden

    Jax

    Sonya

    Kung Lao

    Reptile

    Quan Chi

    Noob/Smoke

    Stryker (just so you can annihilate him in the first stage)

    Team DC:

    Batman

    Superman

    Green Lantern

    Wonder Woman

    The Flash

    Aquaman (as hilarious as it sounds)

    Green Arrow

    Metamorpho

    Booster Gold

    Black Canary

    V for Vendetta

    Rorshach (with The Question and Mr. A as alternate costumes :P)

    Atom

    Hawkman

    Captain Marvel

    Martian Manhunter

    Although they'll want to probably balance out DC with good/bad so more than likely, the likes of Lex Luthor (in a power suit) and the Joker as well as some other recurring baddies like maybe Superboy/Prime from Infinite Crisis.

  12. I certainly echo that Zircon. I often listen to both of them and they both have their different variations on the same idea. It's refreshing to see that, because if we didn't have that same perception, you guys wouldn't be making ReMixes now, would you?

    But as for my take on the track? Dr Rod beat me to the punch. I absolutely loved the speedy intro, and when the calm drops in, it's just... wow.

  13. I actually have "His World" even though I have never played Sonic 06. Quite a good tune.

    There any sort of regulations about posting copyrighted stuff up here? Someone let me know, if there isn't I'll upload it somewhere. ReMixing though's out of my reach, I don't have any of that big new-fangled software.

  14. I've no real beef with EA, but in all seriousness their games aren't as good as they used to be a few years ago. I reckon they should focus like getting their own games sorted out first before they try and buy into someone else's.

    Another thing I don't really get is: Why have they nicked Team Fortress 2's graphics? I know they were responsible for the conversion of the Orange Box to PS3 (which had a dodgy framerate compared to the 360 and PC), but now they're using the same cartoon graphics in both FIFA Street 3 (a game that has been dire in all iterations, but people only buy it because Ronaldinho's on the cover) and Battlefield: Heroes.

    I study Computer Games Development in college and my lecturer (who likes EA games and plays them on a regular basis, or so he claims) still refers to them as the proverbial Videogame Vacuum. I know though after what happened with NFS: ProStreet, I'll not be buying any more non-sports games from EA without renting first. After Def Jam, Fight for NY, I got Icon, and was also largely disappointed, but then again, I'll give exception as it was a launch title.

    But the prospect of them buying 2K Games, and an EA-labelled BioShock 2 cash-in, that would seriously haunt me.
