New Review Posted: LocoRoco

Andrew Fletcher reviews LocoRoco, and finds it blissfully positive:

"Every time I hit the Power switch, I'm reminded of why it is that Sony's cult platformer has won so many hearts. Quite simply, no game is as unfailingly happy to see me as LocoRoco, and I really can't help but beam a smile straight back at it."

Read all about the joy here.

The controls sound great- pity I'll never get to play this.

Re: New Review Posted: LocoRoco

This review would be more useful if it stopped gushing at length and took two consecutive sentences to explain just what the game is. It's about collecting by tilting and merging blobs? How does a level start? How does it end? What's the goal of a level? Does it even have levels?

Glad you liked it, but I won't be able to tell if I like the game itself from this review. And, no, I haven't bothered to read up on the game...but I'd hoped a review might inform me about it.

Ha ha. No, I just don't have the money for it. Why couldn't this come to the GBA or something?

Or the DS.

Btw, copy editors:
"...will have flown right passed." was in the review.

Re: New Review Posted: LocoRoco

Um... because the game was designed, implemented, and published by Sony?

Re: New Review Posted: LocoRoco

and because the DS is teh suxz.



The game is a lot of fun and one of my favorites from E3. I can't wait for it to finally come to the US. I might have a reason to dust off the PSP other than for in-flight movie watching and music listening. Kind of funny how everybody rags on the system for not being just a game system, but the game-playing ability is the only one I don't use. Hmmm.... Well, besides the craptastic web-browsing.
