I have a Wii, and I'd much rather see this on another platform. Why? Because Wii games (even ones with wonderful art direction) look godawful. The resolution is just too low to succeed with anything besides the whole retro-low-res vibe. It may not be a big deal if you're playing on a small TV, but on an HD set, the 480p resolution cap is awful.

Can anyone tell me what's so special about these particular pads? I know people in general don't like the 360 controller for SFIV -- I've played it that way and thought it was fine, but I'm not exactly a fighting game junkie. I'm just trying to decide whether to pick up the boxed copy or to get it on Steam and use the 360 controller I plan on buying for my PC anyway.

Do want.

Please.

I hadn't heard of Dark Void, but now I'm interested. McCreary did great work on BSG.

As a side note, I'd love to see his badass arrangement of "All Along the Watchtower" make a cameo in the game. Probably not going to happen, but, you know, a guy can dream.

I do! It's awesome! Got it through Steam as a birthday present.

Commented.

The World Ends With You was a "holy shit" moment for me. It was incredible to realize that a game had been designed so centrally around the controls and layout of the DS -- I just couldn't think of anything else quite like it. Other games use the stylus well (Metroid Prime: Hunters and Trauma Center come to mind) but they usually don't know what to do with that second screen -- map, score, progress info, whatever. TWEWY is different. The combat revolves around using both screens simultaneously, in a careful, rhythmic, balance. It's totally system-centric, completely tailored to what the DS does well. For me, it has more or less defined what devs can -- and should -- do with the DS platform.

Apologies for the double post -- email mistake.
