Sin and punishment 2

So Sin and punishment 2 will be heading to Wii! Which is a bit of a surprise, but not really. It wasn’t that long ago that Nintendo made the game available for the Virtual console. And once they did it became a huge hit. So I guess with that in mind a sequel was to be expected. It would also seem that Nintendo have also realized they can’t keep whoring Mario out in every sport known to man to sell first party titles, and that they’ve realized what we did yonks ago: That there are other Nintendo IP’s that deserve air time.

I really liked the original Sin and punishment, but it was bloody difficult. I hit a stage which robbed me of continues had me dying in seconds and this was on the easiest difficulty setting! I doubt I’ll ever complete the game at this rate - so I may as well look to the sequel. If Nintendo and Treasure co. decide to go Wii friendly, I imagine Sin and punishment 2 will feature unlimited continues and a super easy difficulty which actually makes the game beatable. But it would be kind of cool if they went 100% hardcore.

The graphics don’t look anything special, which is a shame. Because a bit of graphical sheen can go a long way. A few particle effects, more dynamic lighting and better quality textures would’ve been nice. But the game looks decent enough and if the core gameplay can be kept as tight as it was before - then it’ll be a solid game and worthy sequel.

      I disagree, for a wii game its graphics look pretty good. great framerate, lots of crap on the screen, and overall good use of colour, etc.

      i’m looking forward to this game

      There’s been probably so many crappy-looking Wii games, that anything that looks like it might hold its own against the best-looking of Xbox games will look pretty.

      That said, thank goodness for Sin and Punishment 2 looking pretty. Now, I hope the game turns out well.

      The game itself looks really fun. I just wonder if the Wii will choke on some of the particle effects. However we are seeing a really good display of things to come in S&P2.
