looks really interesting, but the pics on IGN make the graphics look fairly blocky - is this just the preview pics or is that how the game will look? If so I expected more of a next gen console, even the Wii.

With names like Travis Touchdown, and the fact that in the videogame you are trying to buy video games, this game already annoys me. Glad I didn't buy a Wii.

This game is actually one of the few Wii titles I'm looking forward to. Suda51 and the Grasshopper team make some truly psychadelic games that are unlike anything else. I even liked Killer7 despite the game's many short comings. The crazy style, offbeat stories, and not-broken gameplay really interest me from an academic perspective to see how far games can be pushed.

Approaching the game with such a heady perspective definitely isn't what your average gamer does though, so it's understandable why Suda51's games don't reach much commercial success. HOWEVER, this is one of the only Wii exclusive hardcore games developed by a 3rd party. If any Wii owning hardcore gamers want to see MORE 3rd party exclusives, they better damn well buy THIS game.

I have to admit, I freakin' love this game. Sure, the graphics aren't nearly as polished as games like GTA for the other consoles, but the fun game play will easily distract you from the graphics (which are actually pretty good for a Wii game). The intentional low-fi 8-bit style menus, maps and music definately strike a chord with the old skool gaming fan. And you gotta love being able to dismember, decapitate or cut people in half using a light-saber, and not worry about "joining the dark side". Is this the best game for the Wii?? No. Is it worth the purchase?? Most definately. Do I like answering my own questions? Yes.
