"Not every game needs to be new and innovative to be fun, but it does need to get what it does do right. In another spot in the game a calendar displays a cutesy kitten with big eyes and the words "Don't be a sourpuss" written on it. To me it seems like a desperate plea from the game-maker to the gameplayer, but unfortunately Spark has again left a sour taste in my mouth after another round of its well conceived but poorly executed games."

Looking for great games for the holidays?

Blair Herter announces the winner of G-Phoria '09 Game Most Deserving of a Uwe Boll Movie. Nominees include 'Golden Axe: Beast Rider', 'Castlevania Judgment', 'Legendary', 'Onechanbara: Bikini Zombie Slayer' and 'X-Blades'.
NOTHING deserves a Uwe Boll movie. That guy is simply atrocious at everything he does. I can't believe how he can make a move so stupid, I'm not kidding I got sick after watching House of the Dead. It's like he actually wants to fail. A monkey with a camera and 10 bucks can make a better movie than this guy.
I've already seen an Onechanbara movie. Made in Japan and campy as hell but I enjoyed it thou :)
Oh, this game doesn't look so great. Unfortunately it isn't such a bad concept, it just wasn't pulled off effectively.
It's a shame, as many of the early vids and info was pointing to a good game. It got 3.5 at GameSpot . .. which is around the same mark.
Well at least that makes my bank account that much higher, was thinking of getting this, seems I'd better not.
