Mad World “at home” on Wii, says Platinum

September 10th, 2008 @ 15:19

Mad World creator Platinum Games has said to CVG that Mad World was developed for Wii because “it feels like a game that is at home.”

“We’re really interested in the Wii platform so we wanted to create a really cool and stylish game for that,” said Platinum’s Atsushi Inaba.

“As you can see [from our Leipzig presentation] it’s really easy to pick up and play so when we came up with the concept of Mad World the Wii felt like a good console for that. It feels like a game that is at home on Wii.”

I get the horrible feeling this just isn’t going to make release. I hear the swishing of a ban hammer, and can already smell the Daily Mail’s fervour.

Stylish is a word that suits Platinum games.

I am the only person to have a problem with Okami, but this is atleast challenging the Wii, even if there seems to be nothign other than a quite cliched ’style’ to it.

This game looks like a contender for the polished turd award.

Blerk don’t get all confrontational becuase Okami was your favourite thing sicne sliced bread.

I didn’t even share my ‘controversial’ views on it.

There is pleasing me, it’s kind of possible

Tonka agrees with me, right? Not about Okami, but this.

If you think it looks like a waste of a cool graphics engine then yes.

“even if there seems to be nothign other than a quite cliched ’style’ to it.”

Typos and all, pretty much sums up what I said, so yes.
