Electronic Arts is putting together a little co-op action game for XBLA and PSN that looks friendly enough for a small child, yet it still may have enough style and substance to keep any older gamers interested. It's called Spare Parts and it stars two robots (Mar-T and Chip) who find themselves put out with the trash on an alien planet. The goal is to work together -- the game can be played cooperatively with two players -- to find lost ship parts and eventually escape the dump they're stuck on.
For the whole month of April Spare Parts is 50% off for gold members only of course. This would be an opportune time to purchase this title, especially if you have a friend that likes co-op games and even games like the classic Crash Bandicoot titles from back in the day.
PlayDevil has posted a in depth review of EA Bright Light new adventure game for Xbox Live Arcade "Spare Parts".
i thought this game was fun as hell for bein a download title. imo it seemed to be about the right length. not too long, not too short. somehow felt just right. least imo thats what a $7 game should b.
AAG's John Elliott writes: "It feels a lot like the popular LEGO platformers series at first, and has a very similar style of control and perspective. But don’t be tricked by such similarities, this EA-Developed platformer is a long way off the quality of the of those heavily original series’."
