I for one am very interested in this title.....

and I cant help but laugh when he recharges his sword in the trailer and it looks like hes jacking himself off for a moment.....rofl.

I don't mind Ubi publishing it since they have a good marketing budget. Just glad they aren't developing it.

[Phoenix]

Yeah, same here. It's also a bigger name that should get it more sales.

[TheGreenElf]

Yeah, as a publisher, it's hard to ask for more than Ubi, however, it all really comes down to the developer on this one.

Breaking down my top Wii games Im looking forward too we've got...

1. Super Smash Bros Brawl
2. Super Mario Galaxy
3. No More Heroes
4. Fire Emblem 10: Goddess of Dawn
5. Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles

Im so impressed with this title that its amazing bumped FE10 from its former number three spot. Suda 51 is a genius and Im glad its coming here in its complete form. This is a very inspirational game for me and I hope that Gouchi Suda continues to push the creative and innovative envelop. You just cant find talent like his often!

Ubisoft is quite a good choice as far as publishers go. Hopefully the game will play as good as it looks.

[TheGreenElf]

I just hope it shapes up, most previews haven't found it very good so far. At least not excellent...

Previewing a game like this is akin to trying to review a taco from looking at the tomato.
Its not like they are allowed to sit with a finished build and play for a hour or 3 to get a good feel for it.

I thought Capcom would publish the game.

But Ubisoft is just as good!

[Lynk Former]

It doesn't really matter who publishes the game... I mean Nintendo publishes Capcom games that appear on their system down here in Australia...

If my memory serves me well Ubisoft has published a number of high end games from other studios. Lets think now...ah didn't Ubisoft do the PC version of Resident Evil 4?

[koten]

Yes and no. Ubisoft did publish it, but they also ported the title. The main drawback to that version of RE4 was apparently the button sequences didn't work well on PC. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I doubt that it was their fault.

Still, a playtest is a playtest and if you are able to find something wrong in less than 20 minutes with the games, that's never good.

I'm sure if we played an early build of a game like Super Mario Bros. 3 we would've found it to be vastly inferior to the final build. But none of us ever got that chance, we never saw SMB3's earlier builds, just the final version.

Those days, you didn't have any kind of real preview into the game before it came out. I wonder how many of those games sucked before we finally got that release version...

Halo played like ass prior to its release.
