Boom Blox is one of the best games i have played in awhile. The play mechanics are astounding. I am totally ashamed of how i blasted this game when i first saw the videos. I thought it was a kiddy game. Its not. This is a pure video game and only the Wii could deliver something like this. I cant find anything negitive to say about the game. I just went through three hours of multiplayer with my brother. We cant stop playing...just taking a small break. This game belongs TOP on your Wii list.

I really want it. It's the only other third party Wii game besides No More Heroes that I really care about.

It will sell. Even if Nintendo didn't make it, you have a big name on the game and it's Steven Spielberg. Websites like Yahoo and I would not be surprised that Facebook and MySpace will praise the game.

Boom Blox is really the kind of title that Nintendo is all about; its a game for absolutely everyone. Where most third parties seem to differentiate between "casual" and "hardcore" (neither of which exists as a label for a game btw), EA and Spielberg has managed to create something that harks back to games of yesteryear, which were just pure fun, and focussed on the gameplay benefits of the time.

Gamespots review is terrible. Complaining about a story in a puzzle game? :| Ah well. I cant wait til Friday!

Pfft that's one of the silliest GS reviews ever, they say the physics are floaty when every other site praised them, and they said the story is rubbish, that's like saying Tetris' story sucked, it's a puzzle game it's not supposed to have a story.

It looks like a good game, but I'm going to wait for the price to go down. Nothing against it... But from what I've seen, it looks a bit shallow.

I haven't read any reviews on it yet. Just looked at the scores. I'll read GameSpot's, IGN's, and Game Informer's reviews soon.

Edit: On top of that, I still want to pick up Dewy's Adventure, Zack and Wiki, Mario Kart Wii, and Okami Wii. I especially want to pick up the latter because I've heard it's a lot like Zelda. I'm not too crazy about the art style, but it looks like a lot of fun.

thats bad sign then. When you cant find a game in the store, it usually means that its selling bad. That sucks because it kills the chance for a sequal.

I haven't even played it yet, but I know it's gotten excellent reviews. I thought it was stupid when I first saw it as well.

Great game but I expected more puzzles... like around 300.... but I suppose I got to unlock many more puzzles.
