Wii
– they believe that the Wii hasn’t been pushed to its limits yet
– Wii version will support everything that is in the other versions
– there is a secret concerning co-op play, which is to be revealed later
– CoD4 engine on Wii reconfirmed
– camera and controls are taking a top priority “For example, if you’re climbing on a hill, in a game, you’d have to adjust the point of view manually… but that’s not as in reality, where you would instinctively look a bit higher over your head. That’s the kind of adjustment we’ve obtained working on cameras on Wii version.”
– more fluid movements for shooting
– Zapper support reconfirmed – details unclear, but you’ll be doing typical Zapper stuff (aim off-screen to reload)
– Main game runs at 60FPS, online is 30FPS
DS
– online play
– combat system improved over last Call of Duty DS title
– DS touch-screen interactions “We can’t tell you anything, but let me tell you: it’s NOT just about cutting the right cable, turning off a device or a bomb… we want you to put your hands in the real war!.”

Remember, Pokemon Platinum isn’t really a new game, but more of an “expansion” pack of Diamond and Pearl. Still, this should keep Pokemon fans busy while they wait for the next big game. Pokemon Platinum is scheduled for a September 13th release in Japan and other territories will most likely follow soon afterward.

Nostradamus: The Last Prophecy seeing a port to the DS
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News | 0 comments
Ports on the DS, while perfectly acceptable, can only turn out well if the developers can make a smooth transition to the portable. There have been a few DS ports thus far, but with mixed results. Nostradamus: The Last Prophecy is the latest game that is being ported, this time from the PC. Hopefully Elektrogames, the company in charge of the game, will do their best to make sure the game is an enjoyable experience.
