About Me

Hi! I'm Ian/4knuckleshuffle. I'm FIDEEN NOW BITCHES and your average stereotypical gamer. I like books, videogames, pen and paper RPGs, Warhammer 40,000, and other such indulgences. If this profile seems like my introductory post, that's because it is!
Avatar Origin: On my friend's forum, I changed my avatar one too many times, which pissed him off enough to set it to this and lock it. I've grown to like the image.

On Tuesday I picked up a bunch of shit for my Wii, but I was too busy posting failblogs and playing RE4 to get a Rate My Purchases done on time. I picked up RE4 (wii edition), Starfox 64 (VC), and A Link to the Past (VC).

They're all awesome IMHO, but I'd like your opinions.

Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

RE4 is best on the Cube...the Wii just makes it too easier to own the competition. But wait..wha?

Brahms

Out of 10? I give it a 9.5. Excellent choices, my friend.

BlindsideDork

They dumbed down the game on the PS2 graphic wise. PS2 can't handle the Cube's graphics engine. And how can it control better than the game it was designed for? Haha, lulz.

@The wrath

Yeah, nothing like wearing different outfits, but having the cutscenes have the characters wearing the original outfits because they used pre-rendered cutscenes because the system couldn't handle a dynamically generated one.

Is it worth replaying my friend's GC copy to get the full experience?

Marioland

@ The warth

Wii edition has all the contend from GC and PS2 plus the new control scheme.

Your still getting the same experience, only more waggle.

MATTFOO

Sir please see Phist's guide

@The Wrath:

As someone who's finished both the GC and PS2 versions multiple times, I say you're wrong. The GC version, while lacking the extra missions, ran much smoother and controlled much better. As far as the extra missions, you can get all that in the Wii version(though I've never played that version). Besides, IMO, Ada's missions were a bit shit.

B-Radicate

I only played the PS2 version (since I sold my GC to purchase said PS2) and I always felt half of the tension in the game was from the predetermined speed that the cursor/reticule moved at. I feel like waggle would make it way too easy of a game, despite whatever content differences there are between versions.

The Wrath wins stupidest comment of the day.

Wii edition has everything the PS2 and GC versions have an adds wii controls. Yes, the aiming makes it a lot easier to own your enemies, but it's also very fun.
