Seriously, this game makes me glad that I didn't sell my DS... And I was truly about to a week ago. Basically, anything you type in will appear before you and you can use it to solve puzzles or quests. IGN: Scribblenauts Preview
yeah it looks tons o' fun. My friend told me about it the other day and after watching the developer walkthrough and the God vs The Kraken video on youtube i now cannot wait for it. its nice to be excited about a ds game that isnt an ace attourney 1 for once. now all i need is a wii game to get excited about....
Here's a quote about it stumbled across "I had played all the big titles at E3. Private showings of God of War III, Heavy Rain, Alan Wake. But at 4:00 on Thursday, I was wandering around the show floor, wondering what else I had to see. I saw a small little booth for "Scribblenauts!" in the Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment section. I mean, who goes to that booth? But I remember hearing about it on GAF, and so I decided to check it out. Best game of E3? Without a fucking doubt. Anyone who says otherwise did not play Scribblenauts. Best game of all time? Jesus Christ, I don't know, maybe. It's a game that challenges your IMAGINATION. No other game has ever done that. So listen to this story. I was in the early levels; I didn't quite have an idea of how ridiculously in-depth the database was. I was summoning things like ladders, glasses of water, rayguns, what have you. But I reached a level with zombie robots, and the zombie robots kept killing me. Rayguns didn't work, a torch didn't work, a pickaxe didn't work. In my frustration, I wrote in "Time Machine". And one popped up. What the fuck? A smile dawned on my face. I hopped in, and the option was given to me to either travel to the past or the future. I chose past. When I hopped out, there were fucking dinosaurs walking around. I clicked one, and realized I could RIDE THEM. So I hopped on a fucking DINOSAUR, traveled back to the present, and stomped the shit out of robot zombies. Did you just read that sentence? Did you really? I FUCKING TRAVELED THROUGH TIME AND JUMPED ON A DINOSAUR AND USED IT TO KILL MOTHERFUCKING ROBOT ZOMBIES. This game is unbelievable. Impossible. There's nothing you can't do. Holy fucking shit."
Yup, I'm in. The shit I am going to come up with..... Now if I can type Transformer or Jedi and something resembling either comes out..... Damn.
I dunno, honestly this could come out pretty bad. Yeah, okay, you type in anything and you get something, that's awesome, but how is it a game? What I mean is, I hope the puzzles aren't open-ended to the point where you're just typing in random things in the hope you get something that will help you solve the level. There's such a thing as TOO open-ended.
Dude, Dinosaurs stomping zombie robots. It can be a 10 minutes long and injected poison into my eyes and it's getting my $30 day one.
I'm not saying it couldn't be incredibly awesome, but my interest in it depends on more if it's a game than if it's a fun tool. Game=purchase, fun tool=no sale.
My question is how can they fit a model for almost anything a person can come up with into a little cart.
I'm in. Can't wait to try this. Actually even if this hadn't stopped me from selling my DS, Golden Sun would have.
Scribblenauts is out today! I snagged my copy from TRU this morning, they're running a promotion (in the US at least, and today only I think) that you get a $15 gift card with purchase (the game is $30). I used the $20 gift card I got with Batman: Arkham Asylum and got the game and gift card cheap. Nice Now to play this sucka.
My mom let slip that Scribblenauts is one of the games I'm getting for my B-day this Saturday. Yipees, free Scribblenauts!
