The Video Game Critic

[QUOTE=JustLikeHeaven]
So anyone that's played Wonderful 101 really love it?  [Crickets] *dodges lettuce/tomotoes being thrown*...
[/QUOTE]

I don't know if I really love it but when it works, it's freaking awesome.  When it doesn't, well, that gets you the C grade.

There were some awesome boss scenes that reminded me of Sony's God of War III in just all out epicness.  The downside being some, long drawn out fights and wonky controls that are nitpicky to initiate in the fury of battle.  

The other thing you get that the instructions fail to mention at all is the upgrade aspect by purchasing different morphs.  They're a must to get better at the game.

C range is fine when you compare it to Pikmin 3.

[QUOTE=darkrage6]Are you planning on reviewing the 3DS version of Lost Worlds?  Maybe you'd like that one better, I thought it was pretty fun.[/QUOTE]

I thought the 3DS version was okay, but I think Dave will hate it just as much, considering it has many of the same problems as the Wii U version.

[QUOTE=Josh]I watched my son play the Sonic game yesterday at a kiosk and it literally made me sick. Blech! He actually said that it was fun but then later said that it made him sick as well. The gameplay looked pretty pointless to me - which is a criticism that I have of many modern games.

It's weird that you mentioned this.  I was watching a video of this game on my iPad yesterday and after 3 or 4 mins I thought I was gonna get sick!  I think it had something to do with the speed and the constantly shifting camera/plane that Sonic was running on.  It was very disorienting.  Too bad, because I wanted to try this one, but I'm gonna stay far away.

[QUOTE=videogamecritic][QUOTE=Sut]Seems all sorted now, I'm on ios.[/QUOTE]

So the mobile site is no longer an issue?[/QUOTE]

Thanks for the attention to the mobile site. Things do definitely seems browser dependent. 

Running Android 4.1.2 on a Samsung Galaxy Note II phone, the site on a very popular Android browser called Dolphin has some ugly issues. However, switching to Google Chrome seems to have fixed those, and the site by and large mirrors the desktop version. 

I used Dolphin as my default browser, and especially for this site as Chrome had been giving me a text version of the forum page. That might have been corrected or an issue on my end as it seems to be working fine now.  Solution for me then is to use Chrome when mobile and I want my video game chit chat fix.   Not sure how your android emulation works, if you can test the most popular browsers, or just 'Best if viewed on...' note would be warranted, as Dolphin is a very popular browser in 2013 on Android.

How about a new icon - promotes motion sickness! 

Maybe have the icon be an air sickness bags or a doubled over stick figure.  How many 3D games do this for people! 

Wow, I didn't feel sick at all when playing this game even with the 3-D on.  Can't really think of a game that's ever made me physically ill.

Question: What was the first video game character to be in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade?

Answer: 

.

Sonic the Hedgehog back in 1993.  The next was Pikachu 8 years later...man, Sonic ruled.  
That original Sonic balloon popped quite some time ago, but a new 3 dimensional helium filled giant Sonic is in the parade pitching Lost World.

Now you know something you didn't this morning.  Who says this site isn't educational?

Question number two, where is Mario in the parade.  Come on Nintendo, I know you are a Japanese company, but give us Americans a Macy's Mario balloon.

I wasn't aware that Rayman Legends for the Wii U also includes enhanced versions of all the stages from Rayman Origins.

I got this for a great Cyber Monday discount.
