Does anyone know where the game hides your save files? I wanted to be able to transfer my saves between work and home, but I couldn't find it.
Just got it. I preordered so they sent me a download link early. Best of all there is no DRM whatsoever. Just download install and play.
I just finished the first chapter and holy shit, if they keep up this kind of of innovation and creativity through the whole game this is something really special. It seems like every single level they introduce some crazy new concept or goo type, or just makes you use what you got before in some awesome new way.

EDIT: Where exactly do I get that profanity pack? I preordered early enough to get the Ch1 preview, but don't remember getting a link to the add-on.

Guys, I hope you know what to do on Monday. I got already my copy of the game and it's more than just awesome! It's fantasic. I'm now in chapter three and I can't stop thinking "wow". This game is even 100$ worth. You have to buy this.
I mean, we may be talking about the best game ever. Relly. No fake.

The Nintendo channel on the Wii has a World of Goo video up now but it is not available in the Shop Channel yet. It must be coming this Monday for Wiiware. Has that been confirmed?

I asked the dev which game I should get (PC or Wii) because I was so torn. He said the PC version is more accurate with the mouse, but the Wii is more fun (because of the wiimote?) and has co-op.
Can't wait for Monday.

Sweet, just read on the 2D boy website that the Steam version has STEAMWORKS implemented so there are achievements etc 
In finished the game a few seconds ago with tears in my eyes. It's difficult to find words do describe the quality of the game. I'll write tomorrow the review for my gaming site and there is only one score I can give: 10 out of 10. The game doesn't make any fault. It does everything correct. I mean. Look at the graphics. So beautiful. Forget hardware specs, this game looks on every system awesome. And the sound. Epic. I'll put this music on my iPod and I'll listen to it whenever it's possible. A game sounded never so fabulous. The controls are fantastic and the gameplay? No words to discribe this. And of course there is a lot of variety.
3 meters behind me are a few hundred games. I enjoyed most of them and I can recommend most of them. But not a single game of my collection is as good as World of Goo. People. I played the demo of World of Goo a few months ago and it was fantastic. I looked forword to the game. I thought this may be one of the best games this year. And now, I played the full version. And it wasn't one of the best games this year. It was the best game ever.

Just pre-ordered this as I read that the site pre-orders can be turned into full versions on Steam, which is fucking awesome. The Chapter 1 preview should help pass the time this weekend in my new internet-less house
The review of IGN is up! Score: 9.5. -> http://uk.wii.ign.com/articles/918/918954p1.html
awesome review and first impressions. Well, then I'll quit my whining earlier in this thread and get it on PC because of these subtle facts:
Steam version: 20$ + taxes = ~18, available in 2 days
PC/Wii retail version EU: 30/40, available end of february 2009 (according to amazon.de)
I'd still prefer it on Wii(Ware), but hey, I don't wanna wait 4 months and pay double the price.

Has Wiiware been coming out at a consistent time every Monday morning? I want to know when to start checking. Please include time zone.

So I made today an English video review. My English isn't that good and I'm not the best speaker. But I really want that all people buy this game. Maybe it was the best game I've ever played. I really love the game and you'll love it, too.
GUARANTEED BUY X 10!!!
Thank you so much for making that video review! After watching your review, this game has shot to the absolute top of my anticipation list, and the best part is that IT COMES OUT ON MONDAY!!
Also, I just text messaged all of my friends and DEMANDED that they go check World of Goo out!
As an engineering student, I think the concept of building structures with truss supports is a fantastic idea!
At the end of your video review where you showed a level in it's entirety. I was literally falling out of my seat as the tower at the end almost fell into pit below! And WOW at the music!!
Please include your review on the front page!!!!

Your english makes me think you look like this:GC|Simon said:
As for the review, it was good, but I had to close it halfway through. I want to go in as blind as possible. Good work though.

Nice review; seriously though, I don't even know where to set my expectations at this moment, I have not heard a single downer about this game, and all the praise surrounding it is damn high indeed. Good thing I first heard about it 2 weeks ago, otherwise I think I'd be going in expecting way too much--nonetheless, Monday cannot come soon enough!GC|Simon said:

Wow. Thanks for the review! I didn't view the entire level part of the review, but from what I saw I was very impressed. I'm going to get this monday. Go WiiWare!GC|Simon said:
Love the music from the trailer http://localhostr.com/files/2e00c8/WorldOfGoo.mp3
How's the music in rest of the game?

The two highlights for me were the creative requirements for each level (as in: every new level has a new goo, new obstacle, or new method of using goo or the environment to get past an obstacle or meet the goal. It's brilliant)... And the music. The music was superb.

So, now I'm not on my phone, this might actually let me post (Stupid iPhone Safari)
I finished the Chapter 1 preview on Saturday and ITS AWESOME, even though I suck at building towers, (the tower of goo level took me many an attempt) I'm so looking forward to being able to grab the Steam version when it hits (15hrs? lame, that's not the 13th, that's the start of the 14th, silly Valve)
