Few days old, only came across it recently though.

Those actually look pretty sweet! Alot better than some of the other games I've seen.

The mario game looked good in motion but the Zelda game just sucks ass.

Where the hell is the kick ass models from the demo last year??

Lol, nice comparison. At first I equated it with LucasArts i.e Monkey Island 3, but I think your vision is much more appropriate.

Link does look weird in the stills... but he looks worse in motion... check out the videos!!!

I don't like the new Mario. Why is he in a city??? Mario games traditionally take place in weird creative worlds (The Vanilla Dome, The Giant Zone etc) and never have there been houses, streets and other real life shit!!! argh, I hated it when Sonic (in his games on the DC) came to "The Real World" it sucked... think about it this way, will it seem like Mario when your jumping across roof tops and dodging traffic, or would it seem more like Mario if you were jumping on a goomba off of a big green pipe then making your way up a bean stalk?

I?ll get Link (in spite of his disturbing new design) but I?ll pass over Mario based on what I?ve seen so far.

Bad ports look to be making their appearance on the GCN too? Sonic 2 looks EXACTLY the same as it did on the DC. No improvements AT ALL.

Oh well? I?m still going to get one. The GC that is.

BTW ? what a name? Mario Sunshine !?!?!?

Mario Sunshine??? Woah they really arnt aiming this game at anybody male and over the age of 12 are they?

by **Pdaimaoh** on Sun Aug 26, 2001 4:28 am

HEY! fuck you
I love the sunshine! I'm no prozac freak like the rest of you!

I prefer the psychotropic worlds of oldschool mario and sonic, but I think the world they showed will allow for more of the bouncy jumping bliss of M64!
I'm all for that
but the houses need to be orange and purple
and the sky shouldn't be blue, unless the grass isn't green

I doubt that comparison is right for zelda and dragon's lair

I think zelda will allow you to run back and forth and shit
then again, that demo footage sure looked scripted...ugh ugh ugh
I won't buy it if it isn't truly playable!

PSO Vers2 looked good on GC ,as well.

*Cue PD*
"PSO! THAT GAME SUCKS!"

Am i the only person who loves the cartoon shaded look of the new zelda? If you checked the video at ign you would see that there are scripted sequences but the rest of the game looks to play similar to ocarina of time/majoras mask

by **adidas** on Mon Aug 27, 2001 5:55 am

mmmmmmmmmmm.. Prozac

by **adidas** on Mon Aug 27, 2001 7:21 am

Gamecube is starting to disappoint me and it won't even be out for awhile yet.

by **Pdaimaoh** on Mon Aug 27, 2001 5:52 pm

PSO?
man that game sucks

Sabin, you aren't the only one!
there are four or five other people that like it a lot, too
