I honestly gave this game a fair chance. I went into it expecting nothing, knowing nothing about it except its arcade history. As soon as I popped the game into my Wii the horror that bestowed my eyes are unmatched by any game I have ever played.
The graphics are crap and dull, green rooms and big worms that multiply everywhere. Repetitive gameplay mechanics is expected from Alien Syndrome, but the way it was executed turned out bad. I must say 411 readers this game is a complete waste of time and money.
I don’t understand how this game got out of the door. Well yes I do understand how this one got through. Riding the Wii bandwagon of success is popular now and day.
PSP to Wii ports are common and I don’t have a problem with it unless it’s clear that the parallel development is aim at the minimum spec console. Alien Syndrome is a prime example of how it can go severely wrong. The graphics suffered, the story being told through storyboards is fine, but it could have been fully animated.
The interface would have been readable. The minigame would have worked. The game could have gone a totally different direction if it was made for the ground up for the Wii, or maybe I wouldn’t have, but at least the game would have looked a bit better than what we have here, PSP assets on a Wii.
