I might actually pick it up when it comes out (tomorrow maybe). If anyone wants I'll post impressions.
 
It looks okay. It looks to me like a muli-player Ape Escape game, except it only involves beating each other up. I like the character customization, though. I would prefer another real Ape Escape instead of a party game like this. I mean, there already is a party Saru game coming out for the EyeToy.

The game actually looks pretty good cell shaded(waits for the "THAT'S NOT REAL CELL SHADING" rant).

I want Ape Escape 3...



I find this Cell Shading very common. Nothing exceptionnal. I think the characters looks boxy. They could use more polys.

I whinny my fervor lowly, for his length is not as great as those of the Hylian war stallions
Yeah, I thought the cellshading was decent too.
 
Looks like it'll get at least one solid night of smash-em-up 4p play, but we'll have to see whether it has any actual depth. It looks like a ton of hilarious fun either way, so I can't wait to play it.

I'm a fan of the Saru Getchu series so this one definitely piques my interest. I'm hoping it's a Monkey Ball-esque game in the sense that you have a large selection of fully fleshed out multiplayer games.
