Geist. Oh hell do I want Geist. I mean how good does this game look, I know the graphics appear dodgy but it does seem to be the closest us Nintendo fans will get to Perfect Dark and judging on early shots we could be look at that game.

Complete with its own gimmick. But what do you think? Any games you particular after come 2004? Granted Harvest Moon will undoubtable rule as a supreme title, Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes looks gorgeous and Pikmin 2 can easily be the best title Nintendo have made since the Gamecube has launched.

Here's to the future.

Damn them.

Of course this'd be the perfect oppurtunity to blow everybody away with a genius game.

Nintendo'll give 'em some help.

Rumour has it that Miyamoto are camped with them at times.

But they also did the third person Duke Nukem game.

Zero Hour?

That wasn't bad, and I imagine they had no help from genius and co.

As long as you don't mean Manhatten Project - I'd be rather worried if that was the case.

Zero Hour was excellent though.

You're all assuming that the developer house is automatically bad if it makes a crap game. There are many factors that could influence how well planned it is - of course, you're thinking about the experience, creativity and ability to implement ideas into a practical game. But other issues inlude time restrictions, funds available and meeting publisher requirements, which most of the time doesn't exactly tie in with what the devlopers originally planned.

Just take that into consideration before you go slagging off the dev houses.

Tsk. Just blame the publisher too and I'm happy.
