Capcom has confirmed that since the initial unveiling of its exclusive Wii project 'Spyborgs', the game has gone back underground for some major re-working:
Do you feel this was a necessary step for the game that many believed looked to be a cross between Jak & Daxter and Ratchet & Clank?
"You won’t see new assets for several more months. We’re refining it considerably (pretty much as significant an overhaul as Dark Void underwent from its first announcement to its first big reveal). I have seen a new build recently though… it’s coming along nicely. That’s all I’ll say about that for now."
- Christian Svensson, Corporate Officer/VP of Strategic Planning & Business Development.

2141 405 30.04.2007 S.JThe game looked fine in regards to art direction, and the graphics would've had a boost by the time of release anyway, it was just Capcom's timing of Spyborg's unveiling that attracted the criticism.

If you are one of the many complaining about lack of great Wii games, and you don't own Okami, then pipe down and go buy it.

The problem is the cartoon feel will make it look like a movoe tie-in on the shelves. Good for sales but bad for hardcore gamers' potential interests.

176 14 23.03.2008 D_prOdigyThe FMV in the trailer looked an awful lot like Team Fortress 2, which did make me pay serious attention to the game rather than jump on the wagon of hate. If they use that style as a bar to aim for, it may yet look like a typically stylish Capcom game.

1508 81 08.05.2006 noneWe didn't see much of gameplay mechanics. I do not know what they are reworking, but I hope they do not change the quirky characters and the great childish humour (humor? homur?) and absurdity flashing up in the trailer.
They altogether may change graphics, making it better and more nerdy (say: Graphics-whore-approved).
It's great when they are able to take the game back and improve it. I hope they don't scale down the good assets.

I find your lack of faith disturbing!

But it's great to see them delay a game that they know needs to be worked on. Thank god some developers have common sense.
