Marble Balance Challenge 84.

Is that the gooseberry fool European name for Kororinpa 2?

PostRe: NGamer issue 36 by **Fruits Punch Samurai** » Thu Apr 16, 2009 11:34 am

Yep thats the one.

Peggle Dual Shot 83

Puzzle Quest Galactrix 77

Wait.

What?

I might get those (although I expect Galactrix is horrible overpriced compared to Live?)

What do they have to say about Punch-Out?

PostRe: NGamer issue 36 by **Fruits Punch Samurai** » Thu Apr 16, 2009 11:44 am

They seem to really like it, the preview doesn't really say anything negative about it. Says it looks fantastic in motion and figuring out a boxers weakeness is great.

How could pikmin NPC possibly be better than Metroid NPC

I was expecting better.

Broken Sword: Shadow Of The Templars Director's Cut 75

That's more like it. Still WRONG, but more like it.

It's aged better. I do think there was a whole FPS comparison thing going on in the Metroid review which perhaps wasn't entirely fair, but going back to Prime after Corruption is a bit of a shock to the system. Shows how well streamlined Corruption was. That said, some prefer the lengthy backtracking and slightly less linear approach. A lot of the bosses are better in Prime, too.

Balls. I cancelled my sub and now I really want to read this.

It says if you played the original a fair deal the sequel provides a deeper and more demanding game but for casual players of the original they may not be enough new content.

It obviously goes over your head.

80. There was a big thing about the review comparing it to Halo and the like.

PostRe: NGamer issue 36 by **Winckle** » Thu Apr 16, 2009 2:03 pm

Oh dear, comparing it to Halo...

I read it as you shouldn't compare it to Halo. Or something like that.
