Wow, finally. About a month late. I don't normally give a shit about movie-based games, but this one's supposed to be good.

Seems to work fine o CycloDS B.4

Needs a D-pad hack, heh. It's all touchscreen controlled. Looks like a decent game though.

I actually thought of you when I read the Nintendo Power review for the game. Personally, I loved Phantom Hourglass the way it was, and this is supposed to be very much like that control-wise. I feel you, though.

No, the game is actually decent. Really nice 3D graphics (for the DS anyway), though you don't get to control the viewing angle at all. Once you get your character built up a little, it gets fairly interesting.

If there was anything to complain about, beyond the touchscreen controls, it's that transitions between areas takes longer than you'd expect. It's only like 2 or 3 seconds, but it feels longer when you're looking at a black screen or you accidentally walk the wrong way and have to go back and suffer that black screen transition twice in a row.

I'd say forget about the movie being tied to this game and just enjoy the game itself. It is worth a look. The graphics are really good for a movie tie-in game.

I must try this out as an Avatar fan. Just one small question are the other 3 Avatar games for DS worth playing?

----posts merged-----

Just played it and its awesome. The story in the game is about book 1 well you guys probably already know that... The story is kind of mixed up though they skip lots of events, and katara doesn't look anything like she supposed to. The bending in the game is pretty neat. It works fine on the Supercard DStwo. Only problem is that the tut in the beginning on the game is so LONG, and I still don't know how to save the game I just made a RTS for now.

Just one small question are the other 3 Avatar games for DS worth playing? And for the ones that played the first Avatar game for DS is it better then this one story wise, and gameplay?

The game auto-saves every now-and-then. You will see a spinning symbol in the top-left of the top screen when it saves.

So far, it doesn't seem too difficult, but it has that I-wanna-see-what-comes-next type of gameplay that I like. And the graphics are really tight for a DS game. Judging from what people have said about the movie, I think this game is better than the movie.

Definitely worth a look. Only question now is how long will the game last before it's over.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    You should update the 360 to newest dash before RGHing it yes. But not a big deal if you don't, you can install new dash/avatar updates after. It's just easier to do it auto online before, instead manual offline after.

    @BigOnYa I wanted to ask you about your experience with seeing south park. Most of the people a bit younger like my younger brother and cousins that are a few younger than me that saw kids found south park funny because of the curse words, kids at school, that seemed like liking the show on a very basic level.

    I could not quite have a in depth discussion of the show.

    How was it for you? As an adult. What did you find the most interesting part about it. Did you relate to the parents of the kids and their situations. Was it satires, the commentary on society. The references on celebrities' and pop culture.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I remember seeing the very first episode back in the day, and have watched every episode since. I used to set my VCR to record them even, shows how long ago.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just like any comedies really, and cartoons have always been a favorite of mine. Family guy, American Dad, Futurama, Cleveland Show, Simpsons - I like them all.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    South Park is great cause they always touch on relavent issues going on today, and make something funny out of it.

  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa were you always up to date on the current events and issues of the time or were there issues that you first found out thru south park
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Most of the time yea I knew, I watch and read the news regularly, but sometimes the Hollywood BS stuff, like concerning actors slip by me. I don't follow most Hollywood BS (example: the Kardasians)

  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa there were relevant issues before south park was made, that's why i think a south park prequel/spinoff would be great. Randy and his friends in their child hood

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea, like them running in high school together, getting into stuff, and how they got hitched and had kids. And how the town of South Park was back then compared to now. That would be cool to see.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @salazarcosplay if they made a prequel, it would still be about current issues, cause it doesn't make sense to make it about stuff that happened 30 years ago that nobody cares about anymore
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's too late
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the older south park episodes about particular issues usually age poorly since the topic is no longer relevant
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    an exception is giant douche vs turd sandwich, that's always relevant :P
