TalkBack / RE:Spider-Man 2 Goes Double Platinum

« on: July 07, 2004, 10:54:43 AM »

I heartily recommend this game!  it's like a cross between Tony Hawk and Grand Theft Auto. Except with webs.  If you like the open ended gameplay of Grand theft auto, and the freedom of moves of Tony Hawk, then you'll like this game.  I'm fairly certain that they will sell them with no problems.   ( it was actually sold out at my local EB for game cube, and I havd to get the guy to look in the back at Futureshop, there were none on the shelves.)

I've been up way past my bedtime the past 2 nights playing this game.

TalkBack / RE: Enter The Matrix for a Lower Price

« on: March 12, 2004, 01:18:00 PM »

Hrmph, Still seems to be $39.99 Canadian.  (checking FutureShop.com)  I'm not even going to think about buying this untill its atleast $29.99  CDN  (the price of Beyond Good and Evil)  

I've heard nothing but good things about BG&E, and I've heard almost nothing but bad things about this Matrix game...  I'm suprised they didn't change the price earlier.

Porting it to the Gameboy might be a little bit harder than you think.  If I'm reading it correctly he's written it in GameMaker.  checking on the GameMaker websites info page it appears that it only works for Windows based systems.   He'd have to port it to run under a different development enviroment.

I'm not saying it's impossible,  He'll still have the sprites, and all the scripts and everything, but he might have to write some engine code to go along with it.

They've got some pretty interesting forums there on making Zelda games for GameMaker, plenty of example scripts for Zelda type Games.  It might be interesting to see how easy one of those Zelda Engines could be ported to a GBA dev environment.
