    Mad World is a game being developed by Platinum Games (the people behind Okami, RE4, Viewtiful Joe, etc) and published by SEGA, exclusively for the Wii.

    Now, Mad World isn't your regular game. Not much is known about the story at the moment...but what we do know is that the graphical style is cel-shaded black and white, and it's VERY bloody.

    Find out more here- http://wii.ign.com/a...4/874210p1.html

    I'm sort of psyched for this game, but the main part about it is that another developer is starting to take the Wii seriously, after High Voltage's lead.

      Eww, it's all black and white? That's not conducive gaming.

        It looks......violent.

        Not sure if I'll get this game or not. Be sure to stay tuned for Jack Thompson's inevitable ranting and raving about how this game is a "killing simulator".

          I can't decide if I like the graphics or not. It's unique, but a bit messy as well.

              Wikipedia said:

              Platinum Games is a Japan-based independent video game development company. It was founded under the name Seeds, Inc. on August 1, 2006 by Shinji Mikami, Atsushi Inaba and Hideki Kamiya, the former key members of Capcom's Clover Studio and still retains many other former members of the studio.

              Clover Studio was responsible for many critically-acclaimed titles such as Viewtiful Joe and Okami. However, due to poor sales of its games (despite positive reviews), in October 2006 the Capcom Board of Directors voted to shut down the studio. The dissolution took place in March 2007 and all original IPs developed by Clover remained with Capcom: Viewtiful Joe, Ōkami and God Hand.

                  You can't handle the truth!

                  Anyway, this game doesn't really catch my interest much, but that doesn't surprise me since Zeypher likes to make topics about every new game coming out on the Wii. :/

                    Except for the blood...It's based off of Sin City.

                        Seems like they're trying to pull off a spin-off style of No More Heroes, with a hundred times the blood and gore. Hmm.

                          This.

                          Looks alright, but at the same time looks like another desperate cry for attention, saying 'Look at me, the Wii can be adult too! Look at how original and bloody I am!'

                            Game loses points for no color. I'm not interested in this game at all.

                              The lack of color's going to hurt it. Even the screenshots are sort of hard to make out. There's too much contrast between the blacks and the whites. Where's the gray?

                                    The colours are a bit of an eyesore though, yes.

                                        Meh, I actually kind of like the colors...gives it a mysterious feel to the game, but they could get annoying after a while.
