I agree, i think we should ban this "Hold your Wee for a Wii Incident" topic... Although it is sad and a horrible thing to happen it really isn't gaming news, plus its already been talked about on 3 shows now (Guys on a Show, Travis and Sundays show)... Unless the family/lawyer decides to sue Nintendo in conjunction with the Radio Station (which they haven't officially decided yet), then its really not gaming news...

Heavy Weapon

Postby robbway » Mon Jan 22, 2007 1:12 pm

Heavy Weapon is a really fun game. It has that "too much shit on screen" factor, just like Mutant Storm and Geometry wars. However, it is a psuedo-side scroller and only fires 180 degrees.

I'm not much of a multiplayer, but the Heavy Weapon Live games are ridiculously hard. There are more enemies, and the game where you keep respawning during multiplayer as long as someone remains alive. The respawns get slower each time, and you're basically helpless to watch the last player die.

I also like Survival over Mission mode--another odd reversal of my normal tastes. Survival is very nonstop old-school arcade, while the Mission mode is less old feeling (and it has breaks!).

robbay,
I totally agree with you about Heavy Weapon. I wasn't expecting much when I downloaded the trial version; Two levels later I'm bying it. I even got my wife addicted to the game when I talked her into playing online with 3 other people online. Besides Cloning Clyde, Heavy Weapon is my favorite Live Arcade title thus far.

I got bored with Heavy Weapon at level 3.
I suspect I might like it when I power up the hell out of the tank.
But I played the demo, and got really really bored...

Apparently Sony Pictures has forced Zootfly (the maker of the Ghostbuster game) to take down all the videos, picture and any information about the game from off the internet and its own site. Apparently they are still working out a deal behind closed doors to get the rights to make the game... Just watch Sony force them to make it PS3 exclusive...
