GamingExcellence: "If all you saw from Hail to the Chimp was some cut scenes and graphics for the game you'd think it had some promise and that's one of the problems, it does. It's plenty obvious that a lot of work was put into crafting the cut scenes and doing all of the voice work but not as much time was put into the game itself. Honestly if this game were taken back and reworked into a cartoon then I'm sure it would be plenty of fun for kids and adults alike due to all the double entendres but as it stands it's an amusing cartoon interrupted by bland game segments."
ZTGD: Last week we delivered buyer's guides to inform our readers what to get the gamer in their life this holiday season. Today we bring you a list of ten games that should, in no circumstances, be placed under the tree for your joystick junkie. This list of games was actually harder to construct than a list of must-haves for the simple fact that there were a ton of games this year that we should avoid at all costs. Each game represented below is a mockery of why we came to love games in the first place.
I bought Altered Species and really enjoyed it. I traded it right after I beat it as there was absolutely no replay value to it, but at least I had fun while it lasted.
lol did fall for IRONMAN right after i saw it at the movies lol
(i get all geeky after have seen a good movie lol(good thing i traded it the next day lol))
i think i borrow sonic from work 2day just 4 the Ts lol
You realize you can return a game as defective within 30 days of purchase at Gamestop, correct? (With the exception of PC games, for obvious reasons.)

"0:00 I'm a fan of politics, games and humor, so something that combines all three should be a slam dunk. Still, the general reception the game got has me less than optimistic.
0:01 Oh, what a shock, version 1.02 of the software has to be downloaded. At least it's only a 24 MB update, so it should take too long.
0:04 Three minutes of downloading and we're done. That has to be a record for the PS3...
0:05 Cut to a deserted island with a large yellow, mustachioed clam. "Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls ... let me introduce Hail to the Chimp," says the high-voiced clam. He goes on about how clams have been abused. "Power to the clams ... kneel, things with knees! Kneel before your true masters!" Then, "from the GRR newsroom, it's ... the news." Woodchuck Chumley talks about a democratic election to replace the king of the animals.
0:07 Cut to a commercial for "Just for Gorillas" fur color. "Now silverback is just an honorary title." Heh. Then a stylish ad for Spanish armadillo Santo."
PS3 Fanboy writes: "Big smiles on both sides of the Atlantic this week. America gets three big games in the form of LittleBigPlanet, MotorStorm PR and Fallout 3. Europe may not be getting their hands on LittleBigPlanet until next week, but at least they've got Fallout 3, Quantum of Solace and Valkyria Chronicles to tide them over which, from what we've seen, look to all be excellent titles." Here's the full release list:
US Games
* LittleBigPlanet
* SingStar Vol. 2
* MotorStorm Pacific Rift
* Fallout 3 (Collector's Edition)
* Moto GP 08
* Baja 1000: Score International
* Guitar Hero World Tour
EU Games
* Fallout 3 (Collector's Edition)
* James Bond: Quantum of Solace
* Siren: Blood Curse
* Valkyria Chronicles
* To End All Wars
* Buzz! Quiz TV Special Edition
* Hail To The Chimp
Asian Games
* Fallout 3
* Fracture
* Gran Turismo 5: Prologue Spec III
* Grand Theft Auto IV
* LittleBigPlanet
* SOCOM: Confrontation
* Yamasa Digi World SP: Bounty Killer
Fallout 3 is the only title releasing in all three areas in the same week?
Strange...
anyways, i cant wait to eventually pick of Valkyria Chronicles... got exams atm so will buy at a later stage.
And maybe delaying LBP in EU won't be such a bad thing... I mean, sales could be massive if released all over the place but as a fail safe, if sales are not as expected, maybe if EU sales are really good, the US and japan sales can pick up.. but if they sell bad but i somehow doubt it will. Sony needs this to do well, and the bundles in japan will surely help there... especially when u can get the bundle and then have a nice selection of new titles to choose from to compliment the purchase.
I don't think Fallout 3 is being released this week in Japan.
Edit: Sorry, I just realised that said Asia, not Japan. Ignore me.
i want LBP i hate sony europe -.-. well guess waiting another week wont kill me but still.... hurry up.
