New AFL Video Game - Wii - Q&A Thread

[Quivorir]

Just played this game. Glad I didnt pay for it. I know its only the Wii and it has limitations but geez..

Bought it cheap and played it last night with some mates... terrible game, will return to EB for refund.

 

[Mingo]

Have any of you actually given it a chance? I've played it once but it's obvious it has a steep learning curve. People are jumping to conclusions the day they buy it.

 

[Quivorir]

Nothing to do with a learning curve. Just horrible game, horrible play, horrid controls, horrible stupid noise every time you change menu.

Just answer me honestly, how long did you give it? Cause the answer could explain two of your complaints, and who gives a crap about the third.

 

[Quivorir]

I played it long enough to give it a shot, I didnt time it, but I could have given the game 4 years or 4 seconds, doesnt mean the controls or game arent horrid.

 

[Mingo]

See the controls drove me crazy for the first hour or so, but after that I slowly got the hang of it and when I was able to do something half decent it made it extremely satisfying. Doesn't mean I'm gonna buy it at $90, but still

Does have the career mode though which separates it from the other versions.

The draw that the game makes after the first season is dumb. Why would the dogs play home finals at AMMI staduim or play all there home games at camberra?

Did you try using a gamecube controller?

 

[Quivorir]

Defeats the purpose of being a Wii game then.

 

[The Speaker]

Not really.

They designed the console to be used with multiple controllers, so that people can use whatever they feel comfortable with.

 

[Quivorir]

They designed the console to use the motion controlled scheme. they added the other controllers as extras.

So?

That doesn't mean that using a different controller (which they made compatible with the console from the beginning) somehow defeats the purpose of having it on Wii.

What would you have preferred? A new GameCube game?

There is more to a console than the controller.

 

[Quivorir]

Im well aware of that. How ever, using another control wont make this game any better.

Such a shit game, have had for 3 months.....havent played it in 2 and a half

 

[hird+lloyd=legends]

Was funny, because the lad at EB tried to talk me out of buying the game, i did buy.. returned it 2 days later and apologized for not listening. hahaah

 

[Hipster Doofus]

Bought it yesterday, steep learning curve, today I lost a game (5 min Q) to Hawthorn. Final score was 1.2 8 to 0.6 6. It was very frustrating but isnt a bad game when you get the hang of it
