Pilotwings Cube? - Smoke - 30th April 2003

A new Pilotwings for GameCube? By Factor 5?!

Eurogamer

*Crosses Fingers*


Pilotwings Cube? - Darunia - 30th April 2003

Wow, PilotWings, and Factor 5 no less...that IS impressive. Seems like they've stereotyped themselves into a rutt of flight simulators...but I suppose its what they're best at. Any 3rd party support at this point makes me a happy Goron.


Pilotwings Cube? - Weltall - 30th April 2003

Do we need another crappy Pilotwings? Wasn't one enough? :(


Pilotwings Cube? - A Black Falcon - 30th April 2003

What? Pilotwings on SNES and Pilotwings 64 were both really good games! A new one would be very cool...


Pilotwings Cube? - Weltall - 30th April 2003

I only played the SNES version. And because of that I'll never play another Pilotwings game. That crap was awful.


Pilotwings Cube? - A Black Falcon - 30th April 2003

Uhh... because you disliked that (good) game you'll never play another game in the series even if its different? And by Factor 5? Erm


Pilotwings Cube? - OB1 - 30th April 2003

Wow, this is awesome news! Both Pilotwings games were fantastic (Wetall is stupid :P ), and it'll be amazing to see what Factor 5 does with it. Hopefully it won't be as tough as PW64. And bring back the biplane levels!

BTW here's an update from ign:

Quote:Reports have indicated that a playable version of Pilotwings GCN could be demonstrated at E3 2003. IGNcube, though, has heard just the contrary; that while the game is in development, it won't be debuted at the big show.

We contacted Factor 5 president Julian Eggebrecht for comment, but he had none. "We are working on a second game, yes, but no comment," he teased. "Not on who is publishing, or what platform -- no comment."

I did that with Army Men. Even if God Himself made a new Army Men game I wouldn't play it.


Pilotwings Cube? - Darunia - 30th April 2003

...even by Factor 5 ? What if they make it so that you shoot down TIE fighters in your glider or whatever the fuck it is?


Pilotwings Cube? - A Black Falcon - 30th April 2003

But just because one game is bad, it doesn't mean a whole series is!


Pilotwings Cube? - OB1 - 30th April 2003

And PW is good!

Army Men. Tomb Raider. GameDay. Pilotwings.

Sure, they might be able to fix the suckage. But I doubt it.


Pilotwings Cube? - big guy - 30th April 2003

OB1 the toughness of pilot wings 64 was its best part. you had to be perfect...i mean, sure you could swing in and land on the runway slanty to save time...but you'd get points taken off...so you'd have to floor it and loop around to make the runway straight in front of you for that 100%. you had to think about what you were doing, and take chances to try to get the big points.


man, i loved that game...almost got all gold medals...then i worked on gett 100% on all the missions...it was the only game i've ever really bothered to try and do that with.

anyway, i wouldn't have them lighten the difficulty at all.

and i also don't like the SNES pilotwings...although i only played it emulated and found it very difficult to play.


Pilotwings Cube? - Great Rumbler - 30th April 2003

That's pretty cool news, but I really wish Factor 5 would make some other kind of game.


Pilotwings Cube? - EdenMaster - 30th April 2003

Let Weltalls preconcieved notions of an excellent series be his own mistake, and we should ignore all of his posts hereafter.

I'm looking forward to another Pilotwings, I loved the first two. Who remembers flying the helicopter on missions at the latter half of the SNES version? Incredible games.


Pilotwings Cube? - OB1 - 30th April 2003

I also got all of the gold metals in PW64, but I remember it being pretty damn tough.


Pilotwings Cube? - Dark Jaguar - 30th April 2003

Never played any Pilot Wings games myself, but Weltall I do suggest you at least try out PW64 before condeming the series entirely. If F-Zero is any gauge, I believe this series isn't like the rest of those you listed where the suckage does indeed spread across them all.

What I mean by F-Zero is that while I enjoyed the SNES version, it wasn't enough to really sell me on racers until F-Zero X, with true 3D gameplay, came out and really blew me away. I think maybe PW64 may compare with PW in that way, but as I said I base this on no actual evidence except that the 3-headed monkey over there told me so, having never played either game. I'll likely start out with the new GCN game, assuming it actually is being made.


Pilotwings Cube? - OB1 - 30th April 2003

That's a good comparison.


Pilotwings Cube? - A Black Falcon - 30th April 2003

F-Zero on SNES is a great racing game, but I would agree its not on the level of F-Zero X... but for when it came out its as good as you can possibly expect. It was, after all, a launch game...


Pilotwings Cube? - OB1 - 30th April 2003

Indeed. Now let's get back to making fun of Darunia.


Pilotwings Cube? - EdenMaster - 30th April 2003

Hey, I made it into somebodys sig! Granted it's only Weltall, and they were words never said HERE, but they were, in a way, the first words I ever said Weltall. Ah, memories...he wasn't even <i>called</i> Weltall back when I said that!

Still, I've been quoted in a sig! W00T!


Pilotwings Cube? - Laser Link - 30th April 2003

It's always fun to be quoted in a sig! Happy You Got Quoted In A Sig Day! *gives EM cake*

Pilotwings 64 was good. I really enjoyed the ultra light plane thing, but some of the other vehicles were not quite my thing. I'm sure Factor 5 will make this the best one yet.


Pilotwings Cube? - Darunia - 1st May 2003

Indeed. Now let's get back to making fun of Darunia.

Shit head.


Pilotwings Cube? - EdenMaster - 1st May 2003

Now I'm in OB1s sig too! Do I get another cake?

Oh, and Darunia? The correct way to spell it is without a space.

Shithead.


Pilotwings Cube? - OB1 - 1st May 2003

Hahaha, poor Darunia. He can never get it right.


Pilotwings Cube? - Great Rumbler - 1st May 2003

I pity da fool what don't use proper grammer!


Pilotwings Cube? - EdenMaster - 1st May 2003

It's the Mr. T of DOOOOOOOOM!


Pilotwings Cube? - Great Rumbler - 1st May 2003

Eek


Pilotwings Cube? - Darunia - 2nd May 2003

*Declares formal state of war on EdenMaster; OB1*


Pilotwings Cube? - OB1 - 2nd May 2003

Yeah I think you've done that a few hundred times already.


Pilotwings Cube? - Great Rumbler - 2nd May 2003

Darunia, as a a rule, declares war on anyone who insults him. Napoleanic complex, you understand.


Pilotwings Cube? - OB1 - 2nd May 2003

I'm very well aware of that, but he's done it so many times already...


Pilotwings Cube? - A Black Falcon - 2nd May 2003

Yeah. It gets VERY old...


Pilotwings Cube? - Great Rumbler - 2nd May 2003

So does your's and OB1's bickering, but we love you anyway. :)


Pilotwings Cube? - OB1 - 2nd May 2003

But that's not a saying.


Pilotwings Cube? - Great Rumbler - 2nd May 2003

It still gets old, though.


Pilotwings Cube? - A Black Falcon - 2nd May 2003

What? Do you expect one of us to suddenly decide that we don't wnat to defend our positions any more? Yeah... right...


Pilotwings Cube? - OB1 - 2nd May 2003

If we didn't argue then there wouldn't be nearly as many posts here.


Pilotwings Cube? - Sacred Jellybean - 2nd May 2003

And the board's content would increase 20% in terms of quality.


Pilotwings Cube? - A Black Falcon - 2nd May 2003

We'd have half as many posts, and 2/3 less quality. So there. :p


Pilotwings Cube? - Great Rumbler - 2nd May 2003

The average quality of posts would probably go up by about 27.8%.


Pilotwings Cube? - OB1 - 2nd May 2003

Oh is that so? I suppose we should all post like GR and just talk about exploding stuff.


Pilotwings Cube? - Darunia - 2nd May 2003

My wars of glory, conquest, and hissy fits generally lead to %71.43% of all posting. I'm the one who makes the world go' 'round, baby.


Pilotwings Cube? - OB1 - 2nd May 2003

Me: over 12,000 posts

You: not even 3,000 posts


:p


Pilotwings Cube? - A Black Falcon - 2nd May 2003

Yeah! Without us this forum would be DEAD! Dead dead dead! :D


Pilotwings Cube? - Darunia - 2nd May 2003

My dear OB1, numbers matter not...each individual Goron post is hand-crafted with perfection and finesse...my posts, while less in number, are works of intellectucal mastery. So, you see...I am God. :p

I haven't talked about anything exploding in a long time and you know it! ASM on the other hand has posted several times recently about things "exploiding", which, if I am correct, is similar in some respects to exploding.

If you're really God how come you make so many spelling and grammer errors? :)


Pilotwings Cube? - lazyfatbum - 3rd May 2003

I love the PW games, they can frustrate the fuck out of you though. Hopefully this one will get in to more detailed and realistic surroundings and flight craft physics. Start us out with throwing paper airplanes off the grand canyon or a sky scraper... then we'll work our way up to F-16's WITH STEALTH CAPABILITIES OMG *****SHOCK AND AWE***** Imagine time shifts too, like suddenly, while flying over Germany, or is it France? Hmm... Luxomburg. Your plane turns in to a dog house. And then Jews love you.

Oscar: I spent so much... what did I buy? Hmm... Butter... eggs... bread... juice... WHAT?? I had a coupon! I COULD HAVE SAVED MORE!

Maybe I'm spelling it right, and humanity has it right...afterall, I am God.
