It was still using the Halo logo on Industrial waste (65 milligrams of sodium? Is that even legal?). I was judging by that Penny Arcade strip.

Do you not eat anchovies? 1100mg per serving (2)

Just some statistics:

-7 out of those 20 are Nintendo first-party titles.
-9 of those 20 are ports.
-In Comparison, there are somewhere in the region of 45 games (47 to be exact) that have received scores below 50 on Metacritic.

Also those are all based on Metacritic statistics. I would never actually give Madden or any other rubbish American game 83/100.

I'm a vegetarian, so no. But what I mean is, is 65 Mg per serving legal in a liquid. It sounds like it'd violate a lot of standards.

Valve is American.

What do 90% of popular American companies make? FPSes. And guess what, most of those games are no better than average (the original Doom, Half Life and Quake 3 are the only honourable mentions IMO). I would MUCH rather play Goldeneye or Timesplitters 2 than any of those games.

That Rockstar game? I've never really had any sort of likeness of any Rockstar game; I've played Grand Theft Auto, Bully and even Max Payne and I've never liked any of them. I don't own a PS3 and this game is of absolutely NO interest to me whatsoever.

On topic, I will tell my friend that has a wii to rent dead rising and I will try it (he likes dead rising anyway) maybe it will surprise me.

How the hell am I a "xenophobic shit"? Let's break this down:

Valve: Half Life series (which I hate).
id Software: Doom, Quake (both of which I think are no better than average).
Bungie: The Halo games are the only ones which I have played, all 3 of them are really overrated.
Interplay: This is one big exception. I like most of the games these guys put out.
Bethesda: The Elder Scrolls company, right? Nope, I don't like them.

Let Me guess:

Rare, anything Pre-MS
FRD, anything Pre-Haze
Capcom, anything Pre-Godhand/clover closing
Konami, you only play MGS (and possibly Zone of the Enders)
Nintendo, because they are totally supporting their faithful(http://www.vgcats.com/comics/)

There are many, many great US developers that you just choose to gloss over due to taste. Also, most of the tech you play on is still developed in the US (nVidia, Power PC, Intel) so I mean seriously, blanket statements are idiotic and you seem like one of those people who will always claim the SNES was the best gaming era ever and everything else is pure #*$& and probably think the Xbox 360 is garbage.

I can admit to be wrong and I may be, but this, my friend, is how you are presenting yourself currently.

Rare: Yes, anything pre-MS.
FRD: Yes, anything pre-Haze.
Capcom: Again, you're right.

Konami: NO; Contra, Cybernator, Gradius, Castlevania and Pro Evolution series. NOT Metal Gear Solid.
Nintendo: I support them because of the NES and the NES alone.

Personally, I don't really like any of the consoles this era but I have a Wii because of Virtual Console and Brawl.

I was about 60~70% right,... I tend not to dwell on the past an old games. Old games should be a benchmark for what the studio has before, but once I beat it or know I don't like, I move on.

Dead Rising for the Wii, to steer it back, is gonna be good, probably. I really think they need to make the mall smaller (IE shrink the square footage of places and remove a few useless racks of sales goods, NOT remove any sort of store or content, keep that the same) since the Wii will not be able to show as many zombies. In doing so, there will be less on the screen and a better sense of close quarters fear that the 360 was able to produce.

Really,... I dont even like the PS3, but give it to them. Not the Wii. This coupled with Megaman 9 (compare Megaman 9 vs. Bionic Commando Re-armed, you can still have the same type of gameplay... but 8-bit, seriously? What, did you guys get 4 interns to make it?) really has me doubting Capcom.

Oh well, I know I will buy RE5. Guess that's all that matters.

There is no way in the world the Wii could run Dead Rising as we know it... is there?

I'm thinking Dead Rising - The Rail Shooter.
Just remember I fucking called it.

I'm probably wrong though - Capcoms Wii efforts have been pretty smart so far.

Yeah I just have this mental vision of instead of like the 300 zombies on screen from the 360 version down to like the ghosts from PacMan bobbing around moaning. Dead Rising was impressive really cause of how much stuff it stuffed onto the screen at once. The first time you were surrounded by a horde of like 80 and your baseball bat broke you know you pissed yourself a little. I agree though, and think this thing isn't going to be a port, which is why it has the different subtitle. I think it's gonna be a lot simpler and a lot less technically impressive. Except chopping off heads with the Wiimote would be pretty neat.
