	quote BASS ULTRA quote bbb7002004 Developers made excellent games with this amount of horsepower last gen, and HVS is making it fairly obvious that the "last gen." consoles had a ton of untapped potential not apparent until now. But the gap between power in last gen wasn't as big as current gen. That's not what I'm saying. What I mean is, HVS is applying techniques and effects from the current gen. consoles on what amounts to the approximate power of the Xbox, meaning all these advanced effects were just as possible 7 years ago, just not seen. They are showing that the Wii is capable of more, and that the last gen. consoles were capable of more than the developers were willing to push, or didn't know how to create at the time, and I think more developers should take the time to fully realize the tech that they have been working with for basically the last decade. quote Dragon ZERO That was my last guess. What do you do. Teaching, what? Basically, every company that makes something needs a chemist. I'd like to do something in industry, or possibly research. However, I'm currently a temp. IT guy, with the economy as it is. quote SSBB Crazy I have a feeling this game won't be as good as its made out to be. (The Grinder, not LKS) Probably, but then again, it is being billed as the savior of the Wii, so expectations are already unreasonable high as it is. ------------------- The Conduit \| Red Steel 2 \| General Wii \| FFCCTCB \| Muramasa

To be honest I don't get why the Wii even NEEDS a "savior". The Wii has a great assortment of different genres that appeal to all ages. Not only that, but the Wii is expecting a lot of great games in the future; Little Kings Story, Pikmin 3, a new Endless Ocean. <- A good casual game. ------------------- Man ♥ Datory (READ IT >->)

	quote Dragon ZERO Really? For what? Like testing dough in Wonder Bread or something Actually, yeah. Using chemical principles to test aspects of products is common in pretty much ever industry.

	I haven't played L4D, so I have no basis for comparison. But that's never stopped me before, so... Valve certainly has more experience and a better pedigree for online multiplayer, and we haven't even seen The Grinder in motion yet, so I imagine L4D will end up being better. I still think this will be a good buy though, and can't wait to find out more about the game, and see it in motion. ------------------- The Conduit \| Red Steel 2 \| General Wii \| FFCCTCB \| Muramasa

	Valve's a top-notch developer for PC Games, and though I haven't played L4D, I don't doubt the game's quality one bit. They're just more PC focused (and by extension, 360); I mean, they do run Steam, after all. I definitely wouldn't call The Grinder a 'L4D-killer', though. -------------------

	quote MusiKon I'll drool too once Nintendo comes in and fix Wii Speak. It'll be impossible to hear your teammates above their TV sets. And having them turn their TVs down will only mean they can't hear you. Nintendo is harming what could be a great killer app. I personally don't see the point of Wii Speak. It's basically trying to fill the space that was forgotten once the world of texting was revealed to cell phones. ------------------- [ Sign? ] \| -- [ 100 ] \| [ 1000 ] \| [ 10000 ] -- \| [ Rate? ] \| --[Games]--[T.V.]-[(TLT)]-[Movies]--[Music]-- \|

	Wii Speak is supposed to have some descent Noise canceling tech built in, removing speaker audio from the input. I doubt it will be much of a problem. ------------------- The Conduit \| Red Steel 2 \| General Wii \| FFCCTCB \| Muramasa

	http://wii.ign.com/articles/100/1001571p1.html quote IGN High Voltage Software, best known for The Conduit, is set to deliver its most ambitious game yet next year. Called The Grinder, the Wii-exclusive first-person shooter is like a Nintendo console version of Left 4 Dead. Gamers become special bounty hunters gunning for the undead, vampires, werewolves and more. Of course, The Grinder is the result of everything HVS learned with The Conduit and not only looks better, but features more on-screen characters than ever before. But best of all? In addition to a full set of deathmatch options, the title boasts a four-player cooperative online mode. The developer showed off The Grinder at E3 2009 and we came away very impressed. In today's developer diary, HVS producer Josh VanVeld chats about some of the gameplay refinements the company has introduced to the experience in the short time since. We've also posted new screens and videos for your viewing pleasure. -------------------
