It'll work better on Natal I would think. But we'll have to wait and see :)

Shouldn't it be "And so it continues..."? It started with that game nobody bought on Wii... No More Heroes, and it followed with the maker of that mediocre FPS that was touted to be a graphical powerhouse, what's it called? You know, the one made by HVS? Oh that's right, nobody cares...

They need to release this soon while people are getting fit for summer as well as fulfilling their New Year's resolutions!

I see this working well with both Natal and PS3 Eye/wand. Hopefully they're different experiences that take advantage of the features of each.

And so begins the ports of Wii games.

At least now some publishers might be able to make their money back on some of the titles which didnt sell as well.

WildArmed5181d ago

I just hope that the 360 n ps3 doesn't get flooded with shovelware though.
The casual games (like EA sports active) I'm not fond of moving over to these consoles.
but the games like No more hereos, etc I can't wait to play :)

Dead Space: Extraction on the PS3 and Sillent Hill: Shattered Memories. Both are good games but the lack of HD was enough to make them less than stellar. I still consider myself an HD fanboy so any Wii game that was as good as these being ported and made to look better on an HD console will be big for me.

WildArmed5181d ago

I dont think they'll do a res upgrade or anything for that matter.
They already lost money for the most part.
They are just gonna copy paste for the most part..
But i'd love it if they did use the Dead Space textures in DS:Extractions etc etc.
as long as the game looks good, i dont mind. I dont need the best gfx ever, but gfx like WKC, Mercenaries 2.

Mediocre gfx do fine.. just not psx gfx please

SilentNegotiator5181d ago

You think that exercise titles that didn't sell on the Wii are going to sell better on hardcore-oriented platforms that need sold-separately accessories to play?

Nah, it's not even going to pay off the expense of porting them.

I just wonder if the product will be as successful on the PS3/360.

i think the question here is: does anyone care?

reason why i buy no Ea games

lodossrage4407d ago

What the heck is wrong with EA. Some of those games aren't even two years old. Hardly even a year and a half some of them.

And they only JUST put that simpsons game on psn and xbl, and they're pulling the plug already?

Yeah I'm glad I got that as a PS plus game because I'd be pissed if I bought that

Dark_Overlord4407d ago

I think you may have got the wrong simpsons game, the one spoken about in the article is this one

lodossrage4407d ago

Ok now I'm not too upset lol. Plus the one I meant isn't even made by EA lol

Thanks

EA need to change their business tactics, it's obvious they are bleeding money even with all the sports franchises they hold.

So whats the best fitness game on the market?

Lans from TecStories writes: I've been avoiding games like UFC trainer or Zumba Fitness like the plague, writing them completely as casual fitness fads, I've just started an exercise regime and was looking for an interactive game that would keep me interested in exercising for a while. I decided to browse around the web for decent games that burn fat. What i found was Zumba Fitness, UFC Trainer and EA Sports Active.
