What are we looking at for scrubbed filesize and cIOS status?

**Atreides** · 2010-08-26 21:32

HUGE, download is 7.4gb, uncompressed it's almost 8gb but WBFS manager shrank that down to 7.2

and I'm running it with no problems 249, in usb loader gx

**Kaisha** · 2010-08-26 21:34

Jesus christ, how many gb of FMV did Team Ninja pack on there?

Looks like I'll just buy the game when the price drops, I can't afford to download that much in one go on my current ISP. Hope to hear more good things about it.

Link to the download? D:

**Atreides** · 2010-08-26 22:41

here's a stream in case anyone's interested

Site i download games from has it. Wiisos.com ( spanish site) 71 x104MB files with different upload sites. USB loaders should work fine with 249. If burning to DVD DL and you have issues some have posted using cIOS Rev20.

So, you definitely need wiimote to play this? I was hoping for some controller action, since I wanna try this...

**Corrderio** · 2010-08-27 08:43

Yeah, but you use the WiiMote two different ways to play so it's all good.

Does anyone know of any other stores doing a similar promotion to the K-Mart one Kyo listed where you get a 20$ credit towards something else?

I know Wal-Mart also is, but I'd like to get it on my lunch break and there's no Wal-Marts or K-Marts in NYC. Amazon is also doing a similar promotion where you get 20$ credit towards another game, but I'd like to be able to get the game on release day and not wait for shipping. Gamestop is giving art prints if you pre-order which is cool I guess but not worth 20$..

Amazon and Wal-Mart.com both have release-day shipping (may not apply today if it's too late, idk), I priced them out recently and Amazon was $56 shipped release day to me and Walmart was $52 shipped release day (for me specifically, may change based on location and tax for you), the benefit being the former's $20 is only a game credit that expires while WalMart's is just an eGift card without an expiration.

I already know what I want with the credit and ordered from Amazon.

**Atreides** · 2010-08-27 10:18

gamestop's flyer for next week has a Metroid sale: $20 off a wii remote motionplus bundle (normally $54.99) with the purchase of Other M

**Atreides** · 2010-08-27 11:32

8.5 from lolnintendo power too.

Only real negative thing I read that I didn't like was that Samus is a whiney bitch. Not sure if it's true but god damn it if it is.

**Atreides** · 2010-08-27 11:53

she narrates a lot, her voice acting is probably the weakest part but it does a decent job of making the story seem more dramatic/interesting.

**AoE** · 2010-08-27 12:12

I wonder how many people are gonna change their tune now that people have a review the game that isn't based off 30 mins of gameplay.

She has some serious daddy issues. I don't think it's really that bad though, then again I'm not a Metroid fan. So they're not shitting on my precious silent heroine who had no personality to speak of anyway.

I think it's disappointing that Samus went the whiny daddy issue route instead of something else. There's so much potential for different character types, seems a waste to stick with something so...common.

You do realize this is the same magazine that gave FF13 perfect 10s, right?
