Ok so the visuals are not up to next gen standards just yet but i expect a bit of spit and polish will sort that out. After reading some in-depth previews the game is literally screaming ingenious new Perfect Dark replacement. It looks like it has adopted the perfect dark graphical style and the new ghost feature looks set to add far more depth to the first person proceedings, a dying guard can shoot a switch, a woman can do a retinal scan into a computer... set pieces and good multiplayer fun ahoy!
But Viewtiful Joe still tops my anticipated list... oh yes.
> I found Monkey Ball's golf minigame awful.
I find the mini-Golf version better in the original. In fact, I can't play Monkey Golf 2.
I'd get the game if they'd have had the brains to put an analog swing in. After playing and loving Tiger Woods 2003, there's no way I'm going back to the old crappy button pressing method.
It'll be fine by the time it comes out. I'm assuming it's not actually finished yet, right?
It's supposedly looking very crap at the moment, dated controls and rather glitchy graphics.
Advance Wars 2
Mario Golf: Toadstall Tour and the GBA version
And they'll do for the moment- I'm trying to save up for a new PC. Luckily, the GBA Mario Golf doesn't come out until 2004. I'm going to get US copies of AW2 and MGTT when they're relased soon/next month.
