Don't read if you didn't finish the game!

This Galaxy Map, in front of Jupiter, Saturn, Mars, Moon and Earth...they look just great, right? Thats where I have a question..is this a 360 Movie in Background, cause it looks just to detailed and there is so much going on for the Wii...or is this all real time?

There is no movie it looks that detailed because a few planets and a bunch of stars is a lot less work for a gpu to render then the usual huge open 3d structures/landscapes throughout the game. But i do agree it looks awesome though :).

wow, impressive, I mean no landscape, but a lot of asteroids with different movements, if you compare this to the
inside of the Bionis, around the heart
which isn't an open landscape too,
the galaxy maps
looks million times more impressive. Its really a shame than we didn't get a Star Fox for Wii :)

Animating asteroids isnt gpu heavy. The droids probably only contain like 6 pixels each as well. Hell, if you go with 2D cheating you could bring them down to 3-4.
You'd be amazed what you can achive with low-poly modelling :)
And the actual background is probably a tiled 2D image

    I've been to his chicken restaurant he started in his 2nd movie, Holy Chicken, was pretty good. It is only 15-20 miles from me in Ohio. It only lasted 1 yr or so then closed tho.
  • OctoAori20 @ OctoAori20:
    There are very few people I just have just an immense dislike of and he's one of those very few people, the only other example is Gene Simmons. My musician uncle on my mother's side of the family actually met Gene once during some event and said he was the most unpleasant person to be around.
