The only one I´ve played was Kirby´s Adventure(I think) on the NES.

I can't see this game getting a score below an 8. It just oozes innovation. :P

8.4 from Gametrailers: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/re...ys-epic/706189

the only thing that will hurt this game is the difficulty. If it offered a more challenging mode I'd be expecting no less than a9 from GS but unfortunately because of that, I'm thinking it might miss it.

IGN said that getting 100% in every level can be difficult.

Although the fact that you can't die in the game makes me think that this game will get a 8.5 here.

I hyped it AA with a personal A. Guess I was wrong but it still looks like something I'd have to force myself through, just like SMG2.

I would think that Gamespot would give it at least a 9.0. Game gets released this Sunday. Weird day for a launch, but I'll be picking my copy up.

Joystick with a "Warm and fuzzy"4.5/5: http://www.joystiq.com/2010/10/15/kirbys-epic-yarn-review/

"Kirby's Epic Yarn makes a convincing case for the idea that we don't have to be challenged every single time we play a video game. Occasionally, it's enough to be happy."

Then what happens if you get hit? If it's anything like Forza 3 or Braid where you get to rewind whenever you want, it shouldn't be a big deal.

You lose your beads when you die, ad you lose the ability to attain 100% completion per level.

1UP said this too, for adults its very cheesy but for kids it should be fine. I'm guessing 9-12 should find it pretty good. Anyone older would find it too childish.

Except for 1UP's review concludes with "Put simply, Kirby's Epic Yarn is a game everyone can enjoy."
