i dont understand when people bitch about people giving their impression from some vids. dont post your opinions unless they're positive.
Yeah but Kron has a point about people judging an entire game on a small video segment of a game. How many more times are we going to go through "OMG teh gamezorz suckzorz!!" JUST after the FIRST friggin' video?? People complain about this because it's happened so many times in the past year alone that it's ridiculous. And then when (or if) the game is good, then everyone jumps on the bandwagon with that as well! You don't see anything wrong with that?

And I'm sorry, but you don't own this site, and people have the right to post their opinions, positive, or negative, about games.


i dont get it, you post something on an internet discussion message board, the point is to get discussion.
if the game seems bad to someone on the video, why shouldnt he be able to express it.

of course its not a definitive review of the game, its just a first impression, dont act dumber than you are.
the game could turn out better than expected, or worse.

hell when i saw the MGS3 trailers, i tought it was going to be the best game in the world, but when i played it, i ended up mildly dissapointed.

and about the irony thing, i kinda understand what kron wanted to say, and it all makes it worse. (hint: sarcasm)

edit: and if i just posted "OMG THIS GAME LOOKS AWESOME I CANT WAIT!1" would people still bitch? why the double standart?
"Don't act dumber then you are" Heh, you should talk if you can't think up anything more intelligent then a flaming comment like that!

I never SAID it was a definitive review, but it just get's old around here when people are always saying a game is crap after they've seen less then 1 minute of gameplay footage. :?

Looks pretty cool to me. Sort of a bastard son of ZG2 and twin Cobra.

Your ship does look bloody big though...

None of the Type X games so far looked better than this. IMHO it looks very slick! Shame I am not a huge fan of ZG2, so I am not too bothered with this game...:?
Call me a fanboy, but I SO want the Type X to fail and lose to the old contender that is Naomi. It feels so buggy and cheaply put together in comparison to the discreet elegance that is Naomi. 8)

Well If you read te latest edge you'll see that milestone ,g.rev both favour the Naomi simply becaus e it cheaper and has a bigger userbase then TypeX.In my opinion the typeX has already failed.It failed to capitvate the wor in it's first year

I don't understand why anyone on this forum would want EITHER to fail. They both cater to different audiences and different hardware, so both have equal value, as far as I'm concerned.

And I hardly think Type-X has failed. :roll: There are plenty of people who like Gigawing Generations, and Raiden 3 looks friggin' awesome.

That probably was the longest post ever, but it would've been completely unwarranted if Vagrant hadn't chosen to make a rude comment like that. If the mods around here won't say and do something about crap like that, then I will.

Yeah, that's pretty darn stupid, but what's new? It's buggy? Well geez, I hope it fails, and all of the projects currently going or planned for it, which includes just about every major shooter dev going. :o

Not as stupid as releasing a system that freezes, crashes or gets the BSOD. I know DC's do fail sometime, but when was the last time you saw an arcade game crash, Windows 98 style?

I go by this logic, as flawed as it might be:

Buggy original game on buggy system=buggy or hard to code, or even so-hard-to-port-that-it's-better-not-to-move-to-a-console home port.

Game on a system that it's easy to develop for, fairly powerful and low cost=easy DC, GC or Xbox port. (Don't know how hard it is to port Naomi games to PS2, so I won't comment on that.)

Good point, just HAD to mention that a Type-X game is very easy to port to X-Box. I don't even one can be allowed to call it a port.

Anything to do with Windows will be buggy for a while.
Remember the X-Box way back when it was released?
It's faring OK now I guess.

i wouldn't worry about the vids being not that intense. it's an arcade game, i'm sure they will come up with more than enough ways to kill you.
i like the style, more military and realistic than ZG. let's hope the music is chosen accordingly. also it looks pretty good for the old naomi don't you think?

:roll: Brilliant Vagrant, just brilliant. You have been reported; keep it up, and maybe the mods will finally ban people like you on this site who haven't got the intellegence to avoid base insults like the one's you've just used.

If you dislike someone's posts you are free to say so. But you cannot curse, bait or worse yet call someone mentally challenged. Two words: thin ice.
