Eat Them! is a cool idea, but it never gets beyond "smash stuff," and that holds the title back. That could be forgivable if the gameplay really wowed IGN, but smashing a city in the beginning is pretty similar to smashing a city a few levels later. It's pretty and there is fun to be had in it, but overall it's a package that's a bit shallow and flat.

Ripten: It’s a very magical holiday season as both Christmas and Hanukkah fall upon the same release week. Will the December blues continue with yet another bah-humbug release week or could a release from a galaxy far far away have gamers yelling, “Ho, Ho, Ho!” ?
I wish I had enough money left over for SWTOR. Yes, I know it's a game you shouldn't put on the back burner, but presents come first. Sorry Bioware. I'm going to have to make you wait on this one (sadly). :(
I'm also excited about Trine 2. I wonder how it's going to be?
I already bought Trine 2 on PC and It's GREAT. Much better than the first, and I loved the first one =]
I still have yet to give Trine 1 a complete playthrough. Now I have to, on your rec. :)
Time. I'd love SWTOR, but when the hell would I find time to play it?
Never, that's when.

TGH writes: Remember Rampage? You know, the Midway classic that pits one of 4 mutant monsters against the world? You take control of a monster, eat people for energy, and destroy as much of a city as you can in the allotted time. Eat Them, is very much built off of that same framework. FluffyLogic has attempted to recreate that arcade “Destroy the world feeling” with a fully customizable monster romp of their own.
Game was very mediocre. I mean it had a lot of customization but it could have done better.
My standards in gaming aren't too high, like some of you all. I love games that score 5.5 and 6.0's more often than not. Bionic Commando is one of my favorite games this gen. It got low, low scores and was touted as being average. It is anything but.
I will buy this game and love it I'm sure.
Some highlights of the review in question, if you please --
"The story's cool and told through some funny cutscenes"
"Everything's bright and colorful. I dig the cel-shading"
"The music is chiptune-influenced and catchy,"
"I'm fine with smashing stuff"
"There are a bunch of comics to unlock and play through -- It's cool that you can play with friends on the couch through it"
Sounds like a bad game to me too. The above is why I'm glad I don't listen to other people's opinions when it comes to what I like. They try to inform you of what you should like but they don't know you so they don't have the authority to tell you what you should like or even suggest to you what you should like.
I hate what gaming and reviews have become to be honest.
