Guys... i think it flopped... Still deciding whether to get it though. I like the idea, but controls can really make or break a game.

they should be ashamed in giving the game "game of the show" at E3 instead of Uncharted 2....

Why? Shouldn't the game that gets the most buzz at the show be declared Game of the Show? E3 is not a show where you can judge the final product, but, rather, a show where you can see the potential of upcoming games.

Scribblenauts had the most potential. Therefore, it was Game of the Show.

By who? Two or three people? Fakeboys? :roll:

Seriously, good job to anyone blowing this out of proportion.

nhh18

Nope man, not just a few people... I think you should remember after E3 this board was flooded with Scribblenauts topics on how it'd be GotY.

I am proud to be the only one to say this is the most overhyped game this gen and get called an idiot by a dozens people. now who is the idiot?

Well, I don't know if you were the only one, but I did create a topic asking for people to point me out why it was sooooooo hyped. I guess you can say I was always skeptical about it.

Wow that's a shame, the only thing they bring it down for is the controls. After reading The Good section, I'm amazed it still got that score. :P

Scribblenauts is only as good as your imagination.

Sure you can solve multiple puzzles with the same combinations, but that isn't really the point of the game. Is it? I've taxed myself to do something different with every puzzle because I have those resources available to me thanks to the developer. For anyone who simply breezes through the game, of course it won't be anything special. It will be quite a forgettable experience.

However, for those of you who actually challenge yourselves and your brain, you will find what I believe is one of the most, if not the most, rewarding experiences in gaming.

8.0 with finicky controls or not, this is one amazing game.

I swear there were a bunch of people calling this game of the year and how is its better than halo and uncharted, and the same time making extreme remarks over other games as well.

Nah he said gt psp is worse than scribblenauts. Eh I should have said not many people were hyping it (but I have no clue) but this was hyped more than any wii game this year that is for sure.

on like 2 sites:roll:

Whereas Uncharted only won Game of the Show on X-Play. People were impressed with the concept of Scribblenauts. It was the darling of the show. Everyone was talking about it and sharing stories of what they were able to do in it on the show floor. There is no arguing that Scribblenauts, a game that came out of no where for most people, stole the show.

It's great that a game has those kind of resources for you to just play with. However it's a balancing issue on the developers part if someone can get away with "breezing" through a game. I want the game to challenge me, not me challenge myself artificially.

No, not many people were hyping GT PSP... Not much of a flop even if it does poorly :o Scribblenauts probably will be remembered as the biggest portable flop of the year, taking into account Zelda probably won't get a 4.

WAS ONLY HYPED AA

Kidding. Although, I can't say I'm suprised. The hype of the game was ridiculous... 8.0 is still a great score though, regardless of what it was hyped.

I don't see any cow doing that... and GT, like someone said before, wasn't as hyped as this. Hell, I think it wasn't even hyped at all, so it doesn't really have anything to do here.

There goes the "GOTY.":lol: I knew it would end up like Spore. Anyway despite it being a flop through, it good to see that it still a good game, so I will at least rent it. Hopefully if they have a sequel, they will fix the controls.

8 is about right. I love this game though. As does my wife and she has never played a DS game before. I put it down to go to the bathroom and can't get it back now. Great game. On a side note, M&L Bowsers Inside story is amazing.

I'd doubt there's actually going to be much damage control. The people who claim ownage will laugh at all the losers on the internet who hyped this flop, while the people who actually hyped it AAA GOTY will probably be off having fun playing Scribblenauts.

You seee this is quality damage control. I see this all the time and it never gets old. Well you had enough time to damage control.
