farcry for the wii console, There is no doubt, This game scored poorly in every review its ever graced. 4.0's 2.0s and even negitive numbers from less reputable places.

Aginst all odds I gave this game a chance, playing it vigerously for hours on end and somehow developing a stockholm syndrome for it, Loving it just becuse no one else did.
I suffered through lockups, system crashes, Bugs of every verity and severity.
Untill I came to stage six's defuse the bomb objective.

And off shore oil rig,tons of rebels and a single bomb behind a lock door that even link could'nt figure out how to open.
ive read every giude I can find. The door is supposed to just swing open after I kill every living thing in the rig. Yet after two days of trying and so many lockups. "seven yesterday" and three this morning"
I have given up. You win ubisoft! I gave you more of a chance then anyone else ever would, That you are able to make a game that surpasses drakken In complete sheer swill factor.


Well I must say, I applaud you. The effort It must have taken to make a game this flawed is staggering.
I was saving metroid prime 3 till after I beat farcry. So i would have something great to play to make up for how sucky this game was. But now Im unable to even finish this thing Because of all the bugs. Bravo Ubisoft, Bravo...

It's a Ubisoft game, so that says it all.

Ubisoft = potentially crap games

I used to have respect for ubisoft. But any developer that can allow a game to be released with so many bugs and no way to get updates, Only care about the mighty dollar and not their fans, Ubisoft has made their last dollar off of me. That's a pledge I intend to keep.

Redsteel was the last Ubisoft game I bought, I gave up on the game on the level with the conveyor belt.

I think EA should buy/take the other 80 or so percent from Ubisoft, and keep only the idea's but scrap the coders.

I bought farcry as a budget title, And im still pissed. Even for a budget price. when someone buys a game, It shouldnt be this bugged :(
It's like ubisoft doesnt care about their reputation or something :confused:

minorities do not matter. If the game sells.
I question whether the casual gamer has such strict sense of quality.

i wouldnt be too worried about the crappy games. it happened on ps2 after launch as well and it will be done soon enough. then we'll have metroid, smash bros, mario, battalion wars and so forth to keep us entertained.

the publishers who doubted the wii didnt have any games in the works so when the wii took off they all rushed to start pumping out games to make money and so like ubisoft said.. crap is quicker to make so thats what we got.

But the damage they did to theirselves will not be soon forgotten.
Ubi does have some solid titles. But then sony also had some good consoles once upon a time too. Times change I suppose.

That was top quality thinking.
But now the games quality are slipping. Even the Rayman ones. :(

Splinter Cell was crap (in my opinion).

They should more than apologize, they should refund anyone who has bought a crappy Ubisoft game that requests a refund (that would send them bankrupt for sure - as if I cared about their outcome).

The official games are the only games worth getting for the Wii, and mostly all the ones lined up for christmas.

The third party Wii launch games sucked, they were almost all (rushed) re-releases of what was already out on the PS2 (which was lame).

You have mentioned this several times, it seems you have forgotten about Tekken Tag, SSX, Timesplitters, Unreal Tournement and Smugglers Run.

I remember when I got that many posts, it was 05/06/07 (May 6th 2007) which made my 1234th post better than yours as I had 1234[5][6][7]! lol :p

I can't believe that after selling crappy games they try to apologize by selling you more crappy games. Ubisoft should either put up or shut up.

The real irony here is third party developers complain that their third party titles have trouble competing for attention amidst Nintendo's first party offerings on the console.

Let that sink in for a moment.

Now let it out :rolleyes: :rofl:

I wonder if 3rd Parties have, well....crappy titles because this gaming system, the controls, really are something else. Really new.

Now FPS, they have no excuse. All they have to do is keep the sight in the CENTER OF THE SCREEN.

Third party games should at least be original, people like originality. Even if a title is original and it's crap it's not original, because we already have third party crap...

...I'm only buying Nintendo and SEGA games for my Wii, cause every other company that are making games for the Wii suck!

Resident Evil 4 is the BEST in the franchise so far and the nunchuk/wiimote combo is a great way to play it.
