Little King's Story Comments by Ellie Gibson

Nice to see Ellie get to review a game worth an 8/10 for a change! Guess they decided to give her a break from all the 2's and 3's...

I guess it's back to the PC cartoons for us all; the cast has to include a member of every race and at least one disabled kid and episodes need to be focused on stressing how everyone is special and can make a difference and how everyone has their own unique talents! Yay!

Psychonauts wants its design doc back. ;)

Maybe I'll get this. The Wii's been collecting dust for a couple of months now.

Almost bought this today but went for Riddick instead. Next time. Next time.

You need to grow some balls. You walk in a shop, pick something up ,and buy it. If you're that insecure you give a toss what the person serving you thinks you must be about 12. If you're an adult, how do you ever cope with buying toilet roll, or condoms, or anti-perspirant?

I bought this on Friday and I'm really enjoying it having begun my pogrom against the Omii in earnest I'd like to make a point on the motivation:

There's no option to ignore Howser's demands or question what the Onii did in the first place to warrant their wanton destruction, or to just have a nice sit down instead.

The Onii are UMA, Unidentified Mysterious Animals: they're freaking monsters! If you get close they attack you without compunction. There's a certain convention in these games: the monsters attack, you kill the monsters. If you didn't you'd get killed. You don't negotiate with the Space Invaders. You don't wonder how it all started between the ghosts and Pacman, I mean who ate what first?

How come no-one champions the goblin or goomba or demon-spawn causes. I am saying, wouldn't it be nice to have more green/fungus-based/demon-spawn-birthed-
only-to-destroy-all-life-everywhere characters in games who aren't baddies?

If you need motivation you can go "Star Trek" and attempt to make peaceful first contact with them and watch them beat-up your humble red-shirts. Then you can feel righteous because they "started it". It happened to me, afterwards I sat there, cradling poor, sweet Lisa (the Basic Grunt's) still warm body to my chest. I cried out my anguish, swearing vengeance through my tears. She was to have been my wife on the morrow, the world will pay! All is darkness! All is pain!*

I felt kinda silly the next day, when she washed up on the beach, alive and well.

Secondly, the Onii King throws down man! He challenges you and says you suck. Yes, perhaps it's not the best reason to go to war, but hey, it's about as good a reason as you normally get in games. Or the real world, based on recent events.

On the building the church thing, if you have one then your worthless peons... erm... I, obviously mean loyal and valued subjects, can get hitched and have kids. Kids can be pressed into labour like adults - they can, apparently, climb trees - which I assume is useful. I can't find the shifty little shi... cherubs anywhere.

* None of that really happened. All is not darkness. All is not pain.

Edit: Got koopas and goombas mixed up, what a faux-pas!

Yeah, this was a no-show in the charts. A shame.

@Coin-Op

I´m sorry but i´m getting pretty tired of you being a prick with you comments.
I checked out your forum activity and i´m pretty sure you don´t have a Wii.
If you do, then please give it to someone who appreciates it and never enter a Wii section again, unless through some miracle of God you are given the ability to criticize in an intelligent constructive matter.

picking it up tonight!
