Wii's Jumper gets 1.75/10 in extremely short review from Game Informer

To all the truck drivers out there who are transporting copies of Jumper: Griffin's Story to retail, please redirect your shipments to Alamogordo, New Mexico. You'll know you are in the right location when you see thousands of E.T. cartridges moving out of the way to make room for your shipment.

they charged 49 99 for it while Okami will be sold for 39 99. thats a crime against humanity.
I guess it comes with the territory of being the hoottest casual friendly colsole outthere.
I think ps3 is saved by its more hard core owners who wont buy this crap so they dont make that crap on ps3. also even if ps3 was outselling the wii, you cant make this on the ps3. place it next to uncharted and it will look 10000 worse. becauze of the ps3 power, you either put money in it and make a quality game or dont make it at all.
If you are going to make a movie based game on ps3 you need to start early. start making that game before they even think about making the movie. example start making god of war game. then later on make the movie and release it at the same time.

The cover artist for the game is the main course...or the BAIT.....
i mean Wii developers just want to put a cute and kiddy cover on a whatever game then sell it on like 0.1% of all consoles sold and make some money...

It is like...hell, i say they are more like cheating money than making money

TheWickedOne5902d ago

Not the first 1ish/10 score for a game on the Wii.

MK_Red5902d ago

But it must be the first from Game Informer. They usually go with 2 and 3/10 at worst.

MK_Red5902d ago

Well, games based on good movies turn out to be crap. This game is based on a bad movie...

tweaker5902d ago

this is pretty embarrassing.

Continue Play - Review: Jumper: Griffin's Story

Jumper: Griffin’s Story had me walking on air. I don’t mean that in a heavenly bliss sort of way, but in a more literal sense. There was an entire level in that physically had me running twenty feet above the ground. There was a particular floor, who’s texture would disappear from a certain field of view, which made it seem as if you were standing on nothing. This was only for one level, but considering the game only took me 2 1/2 hours to get through, it was a decent chunk of the campaign. This little bug is a great representation for the overall experience you’ll have with Jumper: Griffin’s Story.

10 Terrible Video Games Based On Movies

WC writes: Video games based on movies on the whole are, let’s face it, a load of old tosh most of the time, and it’s not hard to see why; developers blow all their cash obtaining the license to adapt a popular film, and have little left to actually pump into, you know, hiring programmers with a fully functioning cerebrum. Hence the reputation video game adaptations of movies have earned as generally being ropey, with only a few notable exceptions, such as Goldeneye on the N64. Here are ten particularly offensive instances of a studio throwing quality to the wind in favour of a quick buck.

As bad as it was I found myself actually enjoying Friday the 13th when I was a kid. Even with a purple Jason

NukaCola4189d ago

I always remembered Friday the 13th as one of the most horrifying games I have ever played.

Battleship: the board game : the movie :the game : the book.

Lets face it, we need more books based on video games, as much as battleship needs a longer title.

The 10 Worst Games of This Generation

Because we care about our readers, Cheat Code Central has put together a list of games that you should probably avoid. If you pick up one of these titles anyway, don’t say we didn’t warn you.

Fylus4477d ago

Oh. Yet another list.

Oh... It's another top 10 worst games list...

Heh, modern journalism.

Jake_the_Dog4477d ago

I can think of worse games, and they're all shovelware.

Tanir4477d ago

they are all kinect aswell lol, odd that wii has better bad games than the kinect haha

OhMyGandhi4477d ago (Edited 4477d ago )

These aren't the worse games around. And as rentals go, Terminator wasn't an atrocious game.

Baka-akaB4477d ago

None of these games are even "worthy" of such a list . The underlying issue with such sh*tty list , is that they'll always only refer to somewhat known or popular obvious titles

ShaunCameron4476d ago

My problem with DOAX2 was that it put more emphasis on building and maintaining relationships than the sporting activities it supposed to be about. I man, what the .... does relationships have to do with sports especially the individual sports? I'm trying to play sports.

Bomberman: Act Zero? It really broke my heart to see what this once-respected IP devolved into. It made me despise the XBox 360 and the PS3 and its owners and developers for their rabid demand for "realistic" characters/graphics.
