I think it was Ed Fries that said Blinx will be the first 4D game...I think Eddy is the man! He knows his games, and seeing the E3 video makes you really just want to play it for jolly good fun. It isnt the fun of stragety in Halo, but it looks to be fun...although I guess you cant really die, time will just rewind...I'll have to investigate that later...but the coolest thing I think so far is the record mode. You can enable record mode, kill some monsters or whatever, then rewind back and play and you will be playing yourself in real time, and your recorded self will also play, killing whatevermonsters you ,killed when you recorded it...this seems sweet because you have power to do 2 different things at once, or have the strength of 2...there are probably more stragetic uses for this as well...

"Blinx will be good just because everyone enjoys a playformer, especially a platformer with something special." ... since when?!!?! lol! platformers are THE WORST GAMES MADE PERIOD! there's a million and 1 platformer games and they either all suck or are all aimed at kids in grade school, platformers are THE WORST GENRE in all video games!
the only good platformer i have ever played is ape escpe on psone, but its always the same thing... you lways have to adjust the camera angle and it gets annoying as hell. munch was ok to, but it got boring real quick.

Dude, OEM, I like rtcw, and I own it. But no offense the game isn't that great, the singleplayer's just boring with those idiotic mutations with the electricity that fling themselves at you. And the multiplayer is incredibly repetitive. Sure I play it every once in awhile for a few laughs but geezus, stop worshipping ID.

dude, GET OFF MY NUTZ ALREADY! everyother time i post something when you are on here you follow me to that post and just for some reason disagree on purpous with almost everything i say. as for rtcw NOT being one of the best games ever, try and tell that to all the people that bought it, as it is one of the best sellers of the year, is game of the year, and well, if you disagre then you are clearly in the minority like around 3 million rtcw players to 1.
so stop swingin from mah nutz pahleeze!
and get a clue while you're at it.

Ok, OEM Alien. I shall bow down to you. You are correct. All platformers suck

WTF is wrong with this guy...

RTCW is an ok game but not game of the year. I just finished playing it recently as well as Medal of Honor the weeks before. There are aspects of both that I like, and dislike. They both were good games but neither was great and I absolutely love FPSers. They were worth playing through once though.

Multiplayer, I prefered MOH:AA but there were so few maps. I didn't like RTCW's multiplayer that much.


Whether you like platformers or not this game should sell quite well.

Ironic that you XBOxers hate the game, yet I as a GCN owner consider Blinx to be a breath of extremely fresh air for XBOX (as in finally an AWESOME game for XBOX that interests me!) I am wondering if it could even be done on other platforms. I doubt it, except for maybe PC, because you need a HD to store the first recorded version of the game, as you play the 2nd "layer" in real time...that takes serious hardware to do, and XBOX is indeed equipped for this. GREAT GAME IDEA! It will never be as big as Mario or Zelda, nbut in terms of qality, this game is definitely a contender for Game of the Year. I like it so much better than Halo from what I played of it, and I havent EVEN PLAYED Blinx Just goes to show that XBOX is finally getting the goods. Damn, so its GT3, Klonoa2 on PS2; SSBM, Mario Sunshine, Celda, Starfox Adventures, Starfox classic, Metroid Prime, Pikmin, and SMB on GCN; and now Tork, Sega GT, Ralli Sport, and Blinx on XBOX! Finally FINALLY FINALLY! Now the question.....where can I find 400 bucks lying around
