^No. FLUDD actually worked.

And by "it was devoid of a soul," I mean that the game wasn't even trying to be fun.

And another thing. While the "gameplay" of Luigi's Mansion is original, it is terrible. Besides, I think you mean "the story is original." Stuffing a guy in a haunted mansion with a vacuum has nothing to do with the gameplay. It is the plot.

@mjc0961: At least Mario Sunshine was actually fun to play. At least Mario Sunshine wasn't horrifically broken and awkward. At least Mario Sunshine was fun to look at and to listen to. At least Mario Sunshine had a soul.

@Shane Gill: The hate comes from the fact that this game is bland, the gameplay is awkward and boring, and it is completely devoid of a soul, as I stated before. Deserves a 4 at best.

Good god, I hated this game. It was kind of humorous, but it was just so BLAND, and the only things giving the game any life were the ghosts with all their colors. It was laughably easy and could be beaten in a single day. Controls were rather awkward, and it was completely devoid of a soul, from start to finish. The only thing even mildly entertaining was the last boss. (Well, that, and the one-liners that came from the Boos were kind of funny.) Oh, and hunting for Boos was incredibly frustrating, because they could go through a wall and then you'd have no clue where they went. The ghosts were kind of fun to look at, but otherwise a broken game.

Re: Sega Strikes Poor Sonic Games from Catalogue to "Increase Brand Value"

YoshiSage

Wow. I've got a lot to say about what you guys had to say. Let's go down the list.

@1: You forget the DC title and the Advance titles.
@2 and 4: Lol
@6: Are you implying that Sonic has always been terrible?
@14: True, true.
@18: You forget the Advance and DS titles.
@19: You forget the Advance titles.
@20: "Playable" does not mean "good." The best of the three that you mentioned was Dark Brotherhood, and even then, I still traded it back because it's essentially not fit to be called a Sonic game. Black Knight sucked.
@23: Because an awkward soundtrack, blandish graphics, a frustrating camera, frustrating gameplay, frustrating controls, and frustrating everything is so much fun, amirite?
@30: Completely untrue. You forget the Advance and DS titles. And Unleashed.
@34:
@35:
@38: Because... well, I don't know why. My best guess is that they were trying to cater to ten-year-olds... and we all know that little kids have the worst tastes known to humans (and not just in video games). Sorry, but it's an almost proven fact.
@39: And for the umpteenth time... You forget Advance titles, DS titles, Adventure titles, and Unleashed.

Re: Review: Gods vs. Humans (WiiWare)

YoshiSage

Well... I've always hated humans. I've always wanted to play a god, too. So, naturally, the game piqued my interests.

But I'm still passing. What with the high pricetag and the repetitive level design, it doesn't seem to be worth a lot. Gyrostarr, a WiiWare release from two or three years ago, is similar to Gods vs. Humans in that the levels are pretty much identical, but you can get that for less than half the price of this.

@Angelic Lapras King:

Aren't you one of the ancient members that posted since the VC-Reviews days? Never thought I'd see you posting again.

Anyway, exactly what do mean by that?

Re: 3DS Launches Feb. 26 in Japan

YoshiSage

$300 IN JAPAN. There's still hope for a lesser price here.

But even so, it might be a while before I can afford it. I was looking forward to a pre-Christmas release too
