![]() The mechanics (in my opinion) outclass Marvel VS. This Wii-exclusive fighter took the worlds of anime company Tatsunoko and game lords Capcom and shifted their worlds on their heads. Nefarious's half-baked plans or taking down Megacorp, Ratchet and Clank is one team you don't want to mess with! What is the hold up for a Ratchet & Clank HD collection? We've seen Kratos in HD, Ico and Shadow of the Colossus, soon to be Silent Hill and Metal Gear, so how about everyone's favorite lombax? With the addition of trophies, all four (or three depending on your view) classic Ratchet titles would simply look grand in HD and have oodles upon oodles of longevity and lasting life. Nintendo has already made two of the best reviewed games this generation, so why not share them with the HD crowd? It makes too much sense to this superhero! Whichever the way, Mario would never have looked so brilliant and vibrant. With the Wii U, fans could play through these games either with a dual retail release on one disc or through downloadable means. Imagine traversing planets and planetoids alike in and HD version of the Super Mario Galaxy franchise, the Wii's most graphically competent game series yet. The cel-shaded style of the game is already breathtaking, so putting it in high-definition only seems like the next step in making for a scrumptious package. Imagine exploring the Great Sea, seeing islands with the game's massive draw distance, weathering impressive storms, and sailing from place to place via the King of Red Lions boat. A port with Wii controls or the Wii U tablet would be wonderful all to itself. The art style of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker would lend itself well to the HD capable Wii U. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker (GCN) What we'd wind up with is a game that's exemplary in art design and as an art form. From the makers of Odin Sphere, Muramasa had little in the way of slowdown unlike its predecessor, so that wouldn't even have to be fixed. Muramasa had players exploring the Japanese countryside, taking down mythical bosses like the giant Oni and Kraken. The game already looks gorgeous running on Wii hardware, but just imagine how colorful and marvelous it would look in HD. There were rumors that this retail Wii game was coming to the downloadable services of PSN and XBLA, but it was just that- a rumor. Who wouldn't want to see the birdman in crisp and clear HD? ![]() Even the later games in the series which introduced the ability to get off your board in order to reach otherwise difficult-to-access areas provided some fun to this dulling series. Throw in drop-in/drop-out online play, and you're golden. Activision could have the perfect moment to reboot this once-popular and now-faltering franchise with a downloadable game that remixes the very best levels of the original Tony Hawk titles. There would be nothing better than manualing and reverting in glorious HD. Tony Hawk Pro Skater series (PS2, GCN, XBX, PS1, N64,) Whether you agree or not, let your opinion be known in the comments section. The following are just a sampling of those titles. However, there are a handful of games that haven't made the jump to HD which I think is a missed opportunity of sorts. With the advent of the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, gamers the world around have been able to play their favorite games in all their high-definition glory. Throw in two 3DS Ambassador-inspired SPC Quickies segments, and we had a pretty entertaining month review-wise here at SuperPhillip Central! Let's hope October is even stronger for games! ![]() Wrapping up the month, we had our one and only retro review of the month with Mario Party 2 that garnered a respectable and great 8.0 score out of ten. ![]() Star Fox 64 got an online-less remake which got it docked some points for an 8.5 while a myriad of Kirbys marched happily onto the DS with Kirby Mass Attack (8.75). Leading things off, we flew the friendly skies in Pilotwings Resort (7.5), putted and drove the ball in Let's Golf 3D (7.0), and mid-month fended off the Chimera invasion of America in Resistance 3 which earned the highest score of the month with an admirable 9.0. After being forced to combine three months into one for a lack of reviews, SPC picked up the pace with no less than six individual reviews and two SPC Quickie segments. ![]()
