New Family Guy: Back to the Multiverse Gameplay Details Revealed

"In this universe, she's still one of the ugly ones" :D

[VanguardOfCalamity]

whats up with the statement

"to battle Stewie’s evil twin, Bertram"

I didn't think they were twins...

[BigPappaPump]

They're not. The writer fails to realize that they're half brothers.

[StayStatic]

Stopped reading there

[Dovahkiin]

Ugh, what a shame. They don't deserve the genius of Family Guy.

[SilentNegotiator]

To be fair, FG doesn't really lend itself to a VG universe. It's really sort of a shallow universe when you think about it. If the show were more like the beginning and less about politics and smugness (eg. making aids jokes while being so critical), it might have grown strong enough to be a compelling universe. Another problem is that they managed to kill off several interesting characters and now spend too much time on celebrity one-time appearances. They're hitting the same issues that the Simpsons faced about the same number of seasons in.

Even their main characters are less compelling than they used to be:

Genius of Family Guy?

Humanity can't come off as anymore hopeless than with a statement like that.

[SilentNegotiator]

Awful FG game #3. More than likely.

(unless there were other titles than the FG VG and that MMO that I don't know about)

So you can only choose between Stewie or Brian

...LAME

I want a hit and run style Family Guy where we can choose differen't characters to play as so we can do their missions

Come on...can we finally get an open world Family Guy game, is it that hard.

[AgreeFairy]

It's from Activision so you'll only get to play as other characters if you buy them as DLC. At E3 they'll probably announce Family Guy Elite.

[--Onilink--]

i had read that there would be some other characters but not for the story, i even remember reading that a pair would be Peter and Death, i think it was in the IGN article

[user5467007]

Yeah but it's just for challenges thats all

[trickman888]

I wouldn't be surprised if this game sucked.

[Killman]

Might as well add this to the list of concepts/games ruined by Activision now. Sure, this game didn't have much potential anyway, but I see it doomed from the start with Acti in charge.

"New family g"

stopped right there.
