Great news. I played some of the first one on Wii, I should throw it in again and play some more, but I've been too busy with PS3.

gaffyh5077d ago

Yeah, I gotta say it is a fantastic and really fun game. I hope it is downloadable though, cos it's the kinda game you can jump in and out of.

SpoonyRedMage5077d ago

This was known since it was first announced....

Convas5077d ago

YES!!! This is a Day One buy for me!

Finally I can play de Blob with a standard control style. I loved everything about the original on Wii except the controls. Jumping by flinging the remote up is just silly. I hate when games throw in motion-controls like that for no good reason when a simple button-press would get the job done with more responsiveness.

SpoonyRedMage5077d ago (Edited 5077d ago )

The Wii version has standard controls as well now. It was a stupid design choice.

callahan095077d ago

What do you mean when you say the Wii version has standard controls as well now? Do you mean the original game or the sequel that's coming out?

SpoonyRedMage5077d ago (Edited 5077d ago )

De Blob 2 I mean, they've mapped jump to the A button. Although I'm not actually sure if it has CC/GCN Pad support strangely enough.

I'm not sure if new control schemes can be patched into Wii games but any updates would have to been anticipated, but it is possible to patch. Treyarch patched Modern Warfare: Reflex.

callahan095077d ago

OK, cool. Well, I'll still get it for PS3/360 as opposed to Wii because it'll be the same game but better in terms of graphics. So I'm still happy with the announcement that it's coming to PS3/360. But either way, for everyone interested on any console, I'm glad to hear that everyone can play it without having to rely on stupid motion controlled jumping mechanics like the original.

Ace_Man_65077d ago

Definitely getting this because it looks like a good idea & I know a designer of the game :D

The load times in retrospect are unbearable but I did have hella fun playing couch co-op with my gf on the PS3 and PS2.

anast346d ago

Couch co-op is the best alternative.

Rynxie346d ago

Resistance 2 co-op was amazing! I wish they would remaster resistance 1-3 and killzone 1-3 for the PS5.

Not huge games or recent games, but free is free, claimed! Thanks.

darthv721143d ago

Stacking was part of GwG last month (if I recall) and it is surprisingly fun.

Orchard1143d ago

Then I may have just hit 'install' instead of 'buy' due to my lack of Japanese knowledge :P

Father__Merrin1143d ago

I already had stacking but redeemed the rest cheers 🥂 de blob and ikaruga was in my wish list
