(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurocom )  Cry some more about the lack of achievements, they're pointless.  They just make a number by your name get larger.

You assume because I like online play that I'm ultra-competitive, or that all online players are ultra-competitive, which says to me that you're loving handicapped. All of my friends that I play games with I am friends with over live, so it's simply a convienience that games have an online play. Splitscreen is more of a hassle and an artifact nowadays, as it was invented for multiplayer specifically, but we're in the era of online gaming now. Sure it's fun once in a while but just generally it's outdated, like a drive-in movie theater. I know the Wii supports controllers, I'm not stupid. As for graphics vs. gameplay, I'm not an ignorant forgettard marcem. Of course a game is nothing without gameplay, but it's impossible to argue that aesthetics are not important in games. I love Perfect Dark, but lets face it, the N64 version is so heavily outdated that it's ugly as sin. As for achievements, it's called metagaming, they provide a sense of accomplishment and something extra to a game. No stuff they make your "score" rise, but now you're arguing that scoring is pointless. FINALLY, I didn't know Rare had sold the rights.

In summary, you're an idiot.

Probably because instead of making it organized, they invented some sort of obnoxious code system.

Regardless of what people are saying (None of which have played) I'm definitely not getting a wii for it let alone buying it in the next 6 years.

I'm going to agree. I just watched the gameplay videos and it looks as if they didn't just update it, they redesigned it quite a bit. Perfect Dark was perfect on the arcade because it was updated with higher-resolution textures and models, but nothing about the core gameplay was changed, even the voice acting was left alone. I think those are important because it preserves the nostalgia.

I forget what the deal is with the licenses, but I think Nintendo holds a chunk of it so the chance of GoldenEye for the Xbox is pretty slim.

I'd like a PC port of GoldenEye and Perfect Dark but I'm pretty sure that would never happen.

It's just a reskin of Quantum of Solace.

Holy stuff, that FN Scar looks terrible.

I'm not saying you have that attitude, I'm saying that it gets tiring to see "xXuber1337Xx12352" or "imleet6234" all day.  It's fun to sit down with brothers or friends and just enjoy the game, set custom rules for a game, and screw around in the game.

I find online play to be an extreme hassle, it rarely seems to work when I try to play games with friends.  I don't know if I'm just playing the wrong games or what.

Alright, let's buy 4 consoles just to play with my brothers in my house!  It's DAMN fun to play games on lan or splitscreen, because you are there with your friends.  You don't have to deal with microphones or anything like that.  In fact, so many people wanted splitscreen in Mod Nation Racers that they added it at the last second.

It's in beta, the graphics aren't as good as they will be in the end.  It's not like graphics that aren't as smooth as uncharted 2's will make the game stuff.

But is that extra required?  Nope.

Why not both splitscreen and online? :cookieMonster:
