I don't know if this looks awesome or stupid... probably pretty cool, but we'll see. Better Transformers designs than the recent movies at least, though. :) I don't hate the movie designs as much as some people, but yeah, they just aren't the same as the classics... this game isn't quite the straight classic designs, but it's close, and that's great.
As for the gameplay though, that we'll have to see.
Anyway, so far, the game's mostly good, very much like Phantom Hourglass but with a somewhat better story and less choice in where you can go (because instead of being able to sail freely around you're stuck on the tracks). Because you don't need to go up the tower each time the fact that you're returning there each time means less, and I think I'd actually call that a bad change. Also, I've heard that the game is harder than PH, but apart from what I'm about to complain about below I haven't really noticed that. The music, graphics, and gameplay are all good, and it's just as fun to play as PH was. Mostly a good game.
So, what's the real problem? The flute. Specifically, those songs you need to sing on it in time with the spirit things. I'm at the second of those, with the spirit in the snow area, and I got there several days ago but can't get any farther because it's pretty much impossible. I might just have to give up here, I don't know... it's bad enough that it's a music game thing with timed button presses, and remember that that is something I'm HORRIBLE at, but beyond that, in order to press the buttons you have to BLOW INTO THE MICROPHONE! It's just ridiculous. Oh yeah, and the game gives you no indication of what you're doing wrong or how well you're doing until you suddenly fail after the third time you're supposed to play the notes. Cruel. So yeah, I'm stuck there and don't know if I want to keep trying... it's just ridiculously hard.

I just found some interesting things on the server.... Hmmmm..
Ow well enjoy!
Quote:Mike Fleming and I have just confirmed that Sony Pictures decided today to reboot the Spider-Man franchise after Sam Raimi pulled out of Spider-Man 4 because he felt he couldn't make its summer release date and keep the film's creative integrity. This means that Raimi and the cast including star Tobey Maguire are out. There will be no Spider-Man 4. Instead, the studio will focus on a reboot script by Jamie Vanderbilt with a new director and a new cast. All this took place today at meeting on the lot today. An official Sony Pictures news release about it is
I could take a recasting but not a reset, Its way too soon to rewind back to the beginning again!!
Bah, doesn't he have a sense of humor? Sure, the game looks awful, but shouldn't it get some points for the ridiculous Alvin and the Chipmunks music? :)
Sounds like it's real though, they've got some details, such as that the original creator of NBA Jam is working for EA now, and they own the rights to the series name... those sound promising. NBA Jam T.E. is the best basketball game ever, even if the ones after it weren't quite as great it's still awesome to see it some back.
I only wish it was with Midway (poor, semi-dead Midway...) and not EA... but oh well.
