I've never played the original Dead Space but Extraction is actually getting pretty good reviews so I imagine it can't be too bad, even if it's not the same kind of game.

I wasn't saying how Gamecube is better or anything, I was just saying that there's enough good games I'd use with Wii's backward compatibility. I've enjoyed a few GC exclusive titles, but there aren't enough that I'd argue how its a better system.

People still expected the decent games to be sparse and released at a glacial pace. They just expected nothing in between, instead of crap.

Yeah, I used to be able to walk into a used game store, and there would be tons of Cube games waiting for me, now all thats left are sports, I never got a chance to buy Sonic Adventure 2

You didn't miss much. 1 was better.

Gamecube emulation is getting there... I'm playing Resident Evil 1 (GC remake) and it looks great, like a low-quality 360 game.

Skittlebrau · 09-30-2009, 08:24 PM

Yeah, RE1 and 0 were really, REALLY impressive graphically.

I've played the Wii a handful of times and I eat shit at any game that you use the controller like a motion sensor. Seriously. Maybe i'm terribly uncoordinated but I just can't get that shit downpat. Like I played Mario Kart once and I was not EVEN a worthy contender to the other racers.

Has anyone even played Wii Fit or anything like that? I'm borrowing it from someone now.. there's like 50 mini games. Some are lame, but more are fun. Don't knock it til you try it.

Wii Fit was cool to start with, but the novelty wears off so fast, no-one could possibly use it as a real exercise regime.
