Well damn what good timing since megaman legends 3 is now in development.
http://www.andriasang.com/e/blog/2010/10/29/inafune_leaving_capcom/
Though i've heard him complain recently on direction that capcom was going as of late.
I guess infaune thought it was time to move on.
-
A Resident Evil game twice a year? What's wrong with that?
In the mid 90s Capcom was just...so awesome. Now, I can't even think of any games I care about at all.
-
Capcom was the king of the 90s.
what the f*ck happened, is what I am wondering.
-
Offhand, the only thing I've been enjoying from Capcom are Mega Man games in the original timeline(ie: not Starforce or whatever), like ZX series(which I wish would continue dammit!) & the recent Zero collection. I wouldn't mind it if Capcom would release the PSP versions of MM Legends 1 & 2 with updated controls, that would be nice.
-
I wish capcom would release some kickass Disney games again.
Little Mermaid was the shit.
-
For me it was the CPS2 era. Almost every game on that board was at least a B+.

Well the last games i did enjoyed by capcom were RE5,Monster Hunter 3 and SFIV but that's it.I'd say it's more of a question how megaman will continue without inafune
-
The one thing I forget Capcom even was involved in, was Steel Battalion.
I was a huge part of the online community for the online version of the game. They done f*cked that game up real good, and now the new ones going to use Kinect. Oh man, what idiots.
-
Yeah, maybe I'm missing something...but as far as controller types go, Kinect and the SB system seem to be about as dissimilar as possible. It makes playing Street Fighter on a phone seem sane.
-
I think the thing with Capcom was that they really had hit there stride during the "2-D" era of gaming and are having a hard time adjusting with "3-D" gaming.
Maybe this is just me but everything that ever gets praised about from Capcom is a "2-D" game there "3-D" stuff i don't hear too much excitement over.
-
I liked Powerstone
-

Don't get me started on another "I LOVE DUCK TALES" rant.
I think Capcom is still making good games. Street Fighter IV, Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, Mega Man 9 and 10, Okami, Resident Evil, etc etc etc. Capcom to me still stands for quality.
-
Megaman 9 and 10 were kinda tarded up honestly. They had the nice NES look/feel but they aren't as fun.
and, SFIV is craptastic.
HD Remix and Puzzle Fighter HD are awesome though!
Now, its time for some Little Nemo

I would have loved to try out Steel Battalion, and it's uber-awesome controller, bitd. Whoever gave the green light for them to make it Kinect has massive brain problems.
-
I've played SB a few times. I know two people who have it. The controller is the game. Some laggy mocap BS isn't going to suffice. Not at all.

I played Line of Contact for like 6 hours a day for 3 years straight. It was pretty f*cking serious shit.

I highly doubt the Kinect shit is going to make me don the Hai Shi Dao uniform again. I also highly doubt there is going to be a sweet artillery mech called the Maelstrom that I will figure out how to effectively use indoors and confuse about 12 people, because they've just been killed by artillery in a f*cking building.
It got to the point where people would be like "Oh shit, its Arkhan. Hes going to take a Maelstrom. Hes going to make us hate our lives. Crap." I never took anything but that VT.
We had this one match. Sweet lord, my enemies even laughed their asses off afterwards. It was down to whichever team lost a mech next was going to lose. The enemy had 1 dude left out in the field, and he was in the best up-close VT in the game.
He stood down a long sloped downward hallway and mined himself in so we couldnt just run down and hit him.... then he thought hed just wait it out. Wed run down and get pummeled, or the timer would run out and they'd win due to them having slightly more points than us.
I fired overhead rockets in front of me, down the 45 degree angle sloped hallway, had them cruise along the ceiling, and hit the clown right in the face and blew him to pieces. He ragequitted from the game for 3 months, saying I cheated. His team laughed at him and called him a retard.
The rockets I fired were designed to fire up above you, and outward. 8 rockets, fanned out like a cone.
I figured out how to shoot them downward, and all in a straight line, lol.
Man, I miss that game.
-
That's pretty sweet Arkhan.
BTW Kinect is the death of Video Games.

Perhaps, but blame the Wii for starting the motion control gimmick.

Its a stupid, failed gimmick at that.
Metroid Prime 3 was ruined by having to hold your f*ckin arm out in front of you the whole time otherwise you look at the floor, or straight up in the air.
Thats not immersive. If my arm aims where I look AND where I shoot my gun, then that means samus' gun is mounted to her head, or her face is on her hand.. That isn't right.
that, and it was ruined by being another dumbass first person game.
all of the good Wii games are the ones that don't require you to flail around like a tool. Except for trauma center. Its the only game where pointing was useful.

Saint is arguably the best shooter of this generation. Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii.

Motion control games are here to stay, period. We're just going to have to deal with a decade of total garbage before the input mechanism becomes as transparent as traditional controllers. The same horrible horrible teething years thing happened with polygon-based games and CG cartoons. I question whether or not its even worth it to make these transitions if we have to endure a decade of crap, but regardless...that's what's going to happen. The same thing is happening with 3D movies right now.
-
Motion sensing wont take over. we will revolt and start hitting people with flails made out of atari joysticks.
-
Yah Capcom hasn't really released any notable 3d/1st person games (Bionic Commando shoulda been so much better #-o ) ....but i think they single handedly revived the 1 on 1 fighting game genre w/SF4 ! Now they got SF vs. Tekken and Marvel vs. Capcom 3 which has some jawdropping visuals...amazing looking shit!
-
On a side note.... the whole Wii Goldeneye 007 remake trying to "bring back" the feeling that was Goldeneye on N64... yeah that was total FAIL. The Wii controls just dont do it.

I thought they included the option to play the game with a GameCube, or Classic Controller?

For the fullest N64 experience, you can even get the game bundled with a gold colored classic controller pro.

I see the 3D Bionic Commando from time to time for cheap, I keep thinking of picking it up, but I just haven't gotten myself to do it.

ya...i couldn't pass it up when i saw it for $15 used....still haven't finished it yet, i can't seem to play it too long for one sitting.

Should be 10 bucks new from bestbuy (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp;jsessionid=843F9296B0BF44946D99B711E095BFDB.bbolsp-app03-13?_dyncharset=ISO-8859-1&_dynSessConf=1065400418690004734&id=pcat17071&type=page&st=bionic+commando&sc=Global&cp=1&nrp=15&sp=&qp=&list=n&iht=y&usc=All+Categories&ks=960)
I bought it just for the heck of it but haven't played it yet. Been playing lots of PCE lately!

You can, but even with a gamecube or classic controller its still hard to capture the same feel. There is a lot of customization for the controls, but here's my rub...
N64.... analog stick moves you around, c buttons strafe and look up and down.... hold R and the analog stick controls your view / crosshair...
Wii... you can set the controls exactly the same... BUT when you press R to look down your sight (crosshairs whatever) it still uses the same scheme as before, it doesn't switch.
While I'm sure I could get used to it... I was really hoping for a game that played exactly like on N64.
For the record, I did get the special ed whatever with the golden controller lol.
-
On a side note.... the whole Wii Goldeneye 007 remake trying to "bring back" the feeling that was Goldeneye on N64... yeah that was total FAIL. The Wii controls just dont do it.
it would help if the original game wasnt a pile of shit too.
-

Agreed, in retrospect it wasn't that great.... but at the time when I was only in 7th grade... Goldeneye seemed oh so awesome! 4 players at once? :shock: We were hooked (we discovered Bomberman about a year later...)
-
I could never tolerate 007
it was sluggish, the controller sucked, you couldn't jump!
it was just bad all around. I never understood why it was so popular.
-
I just played Dead Rising 2 tonight for the first time, and I really enjoyed myself. Capcom in 2010 FTW!
-
It's funny, I ended up liking it years later, I used to rag on it before. When I picked up a Pikachu N64 on the cheap @ TRU(no, I'm not a Pokemonster, I just thought it'd be funny to have a Pikachu N64:) ) I played Perfect Dark, & ended up loving that, so I got 007 cheap, & ended up enjoying that even though it wasn't as good as Perfect Dark. And that's all considering I more or less hated FPS's at the time, I now like some FPS's, but I'm not a fanatic of them, I generally prefer 3rd person view 90% of the time if not more. Like...the Metroid Prime games, forever I will hold that they would've been MUCH better if they were 3rd person!

RE: Goldeneye 007.
I think the draw of this game must have been a two parter. 1) you like FPS, 2) you didn't have a computer.
If you had a Windows 95 machine...I can't imagine giving a crap about Goldeneye. It was slow and blurry and brown and foggy and lame. There was a bit of an emphesis on being a good shot (as opposed to just BFGing away at people) but other than that...not very good. The 4 player thing was neet, but it was so hard to tell WTF was going on through all the blurry foggy mud that wins were almost random.
At the time my friends were all playing Duke and Quake II and...what was that FPS with all the asian stereotypes in it? That one was OK. In VGA over LAN/internet, with a mouse...there is no comparison. 007 can suck it.
-
I was playing quake, doom, unreal, and shit on a PC. It was cooler than squinting at a CRT with 4 sections while 3 of my inept friends tried to play with the shitty controllers also.
the n64 is probably the shittiest mainstream console ever.
-
I didn't have a computer back then, so GoldenEye was my first introduction to the genre aside from Doom on the PS1 (damn fine port that one :) ) I loved it so much when it was first released. I thought the controller was awesome as well.
Edit: Actually my first FPS was Wolfenstein 3D on the Jaguar.

I just can't get myself to buy it, I have sooo many damn games to play thru, but I'll probably cave in eventually.
As for FPS's, yeah, I did used to play Unreal alot on my friends linked PC's, that was more fun multiplayer-wise, no doubt.
