"Alvin and the Chipmunks is a running joke that's lasted fifty years. It began as a novelty record featuring witch doctors in the 1950s (speeding up vocals to chipmunk squeakiness) and branched out from there. The song spawned more songs, and then a 1960s cartoon, and then a 1980s cartoon, and then a 1990s cartoon. It's a kid's favorite but a parent's nightmare. After all, we've been hearing those squeaky voices for decades, but to kids, the helium-tainted voice tracks are new and hilarious. So clearly Alvin and the Chipmunks for the Nintendo DS, a rhythm-based game set in the universe created for this year's theatrical release, is aimed at the younger crowd that still digs those whiny lyrics set to contemporary music. But that still doesn't excuse some of the shoddy development – the DS version's a better rhythm game than the console editions of the design, but it's definitely no Elite Beat Agents and the soundtrack will drive the parental units bonkers."

No, today I'm listing off what I think are the Top Ten Worst Wii Games. Folks, brace yourselves, we're about to dig through some shovelware."

Brash Entertainment is a new publisher which will be focusing solely on movie to game adaptations. While Griffin's Story is the second game from Brash Entertainment Alvin and the Chipmunks was the first game released from the company. Unfortunately Alvin and the Chipmunks is a simply dreadful title as well, and one that's best used as punishment for children, rather than a reward.
Even though a live action film was only released theatrically recently, Alvin and the Chipmunks have a long history. Alvin and the Chipmunks are actually a music group which debuted in the 1950's. Since then we've seen an Alvin and the Chipmunks television series and plenty of merchandise. The live action film wasn't received well critically, but was a financial success. The game sort of takes inspiration from the live action film."
Surfer Girl says that there was a Borat mobile game, the sequel to Alvin and the Chipmunks is on its way, RedLime is not Road Rash, The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena is still on track for release later this year, and Harvey Smith is game director of an unannounced title at Arkane Studios Austin.
this is the worst, Indiana jones is coming out with the movie, Doesnt take a F*cking genius to figure that out
The movie is coming on May 22, 2008. She is saying that the game won't be out in 2008. Eurogamer also says this: http://www.eurogamer.net/ar...
untill i see lucasarts say the exact words, "its not coming in 08" i dont belive surfer guy or girl. official statements always help :) its always and insider, c'mon its probably some fat bloke who made crap up
I disagree, I think surfer girl is great fun, sure her posts are hit and miss but at least they are credible more often than not. She is much better than someone like Gamesblow, has anyone been on that guy's site lately, what a joke?
A 98% approval rating? Good one, that will be why he has so many people on his ignore list. The guy is a fool.
Why does this crap always get approved if its not surfergirl its someone else with rumors or random googling. This person has no creds whatsoever. Hell even I could begin one it could go like this
Hi i'm mountain climbing hermaphrodite and while typing in random words in google I found this rumor 'GTA5 will be a ATARI 2600 Exclusive'
