Hmm... an article on games being too easy... I must obtain this issue.
So, I think I heard someone say this was for XBOX?
Another awful-looking character, although not quite as bad as Vexx. Now I understand why people were looking forward to Tork. It's not that Tork looks great, it's just the better-looking in the sea of shit that the mascot platform genre has become.
What would you prefer. I only ever hear about modern platformer stars lack in the "good design" dept. But I never hear what you'd actually like.Quote:

How is a Voodoo Doll not a good/cool/neat idea for a platforming character?
Any type of character is fine, I have nothing against the character being a voodoo doll. I just don't dig the design. It's generic.
My biggest problem with the genre of late is more the scavenger hunt mentality. Even games with great characters have fallen victim to it(Super Mario Sunshine, Sonic Adventure 2).
"Generic" how?Quote:

That's fair. And it's certainly an accurate assessment.Quote:

To me it lacks personality as opposed to a character like Bonk or Klonoa which have a certain charm to them.
If Voodoo Vince turns out to be a good game, then I won't care too much about the character. I don't like the characters designs in Donkey Kong Country but I still love the game.
I suppose, then, it's a matter of taste. I hate Bonk's design. ;)Quote:

Anyone have the game pics out of the magazine yet? That appears to be the cover, so there should be some pics on the inside of the magazine.
Wow, so much bitching :p
