:lol sorry dude, that's up to WB to announce, not me.

*wink wink nod nod*

Carry on, sir!

 

[Goldrusher]

Wow. And after watching this video, I think the game would be awesome as an HD release on PSN and Marketplace.

 

[Artanisix]

I have never heard of this game until seeing this thread.

My hype level is now through the roof.

WANT WANT WANT

After watching this video, I think the game would be awesome as an HD release on PSN and Marketplace.

I've got to stop posting so much in this thread. BUT. I agree in the sense that the graphics actually look quite good to me for a DS game, especially considering the number of sprites they had to create. And I don't even see any lag when they type in one of TENS OF THOUSANDS OF OBJECTS and it instantly spawns. If they just did a simple port to run at an upscaled resolution in a Steam game, I would rebuy the heck out of it.

 

[Jocchan]

So I've been thinking about this game philosophically, and it strikes me as very essentialist. It supposes that every object imaginable comes from some sort of essence that can be defined simply by writing it. For example, if you write "cow", you get the essence of a cow, not any specific cow with its own unique history. This makes me wonder if an existentialist version of this game could possibly be created, and if so, what would it look like?

It would be pretty much the same, but you couldn't spawn God.

 

[abstract alien]

Leave it on ds.

 

[rollingstart]

I don't get it on the PS3, but it would be great on the iPhone/iPod Touch.

oh yeah, a Steam version would be great. The popcap games all run at a very low resolution already, this can do the same.

The objects are actually 3D polygons but displayed on a 2D plane from what I understand.

Congrats to you and your team again, Jackson!

[bigdaddygamebot]

I plan on using ninjas for every level of the game.

Much like real life, the judicious application of ninjas can be used to solve any problem worth solving.

 

[Disguises]

Just thought i'd post and say i'm 100% buying this game. Read post 217 a while ago and it basically totally sold it to me! haha. Games looking very good and can't wait to get a hold of it myself! Gonna try and find myself a copy of drawn to life soon, always wanted to try it. Keep up the great work 5th cell.

 

[Jocchan]

The objects are actually 3D polygons but displayed on a 2D plane from what I understand.

Yes. Drawn to Life also used them (so the game could animate automatically what you drew).
It's a good design choice for three main reasons:
1- they can create and animate objects far more quickly and reuse assets here and there
2- the DS can draw a decent amount of polygons at the same time
3- collisions and physics are easier to manage when every appendage is a different polygon

 

[Captain Smoker]

Game of the Forever.

 

[Hours Left]

Congratulations Jackson/5th Cell for all the accolades, they are well deserved.

So is anyone going to have a sidekick/mascot that they are going to summon on every level? Possibly to try to work into every solution or just have along for the ride?

 

[Ramenman]

Seriously, they actually made an official art from post 217 ?

Incredible.

 

[abstract alien]

What exactly is the control scheme for this game? Ive never even thought about it.

 

[jrricky]

Wow. And after watching this video, I think the game would be awesome as an HD release on PSN and Marketplace.

Leave it on the DS. That's where its market is. Plus it would become cumbersome when typing with controls unless its on the Wii.

Touch the character, and touch where you want him to go, pick up, use etc.

Let's see what the intelligent minds on GameSpot and IGN have to allow.

PREPARE FOR LAUGHS AND ANGER

Maybe you could have a seperate category for "Game of the Show for People Over the Age of Five".

wtf? Game of the show to Scribblenauts!?

Da HELL? Scirblejvhfhcfjf, whatever its call, won GOS?
*starts searching for alternative gaming site*

.....wow, that game sucks

WTF I mean c'mon I mean yeah really good thing a good idea BUT I MEAN CMON GOD OF WAR 3? AC2? UNCHARTED 2 ? What in gods hell has happened in this god damn world...

wtf is with scribblenauts that game looks DUMB i think AC2 Uncharted 2 or GOWIII should have won

WTH, game of the show is scribblenauts ?? Mankind got crazy or what!!! SWTOR or GOW3 should have won that.

This dont deserve to be the "game of the show"

Gamespot Aprils fools day was way back!

Can't believe you guys gave the Game of the Show to....Scribblenauts.

Ok, we get it. It's original. But its still just freaking Scribblenauts.

are you kidding me? scribblenauts wins best overall? not uncharted 2? not god of war 3? not mass effect 2?

i've lost all faith in ign.

I almost agree with this whole list. I don't believe ME2 is going to be a better actions game than uncharted 2 or even God of War 3. I think scribblenauts was great pick for handheld but not for game of show. That should have been ME2, Uncharted 2, God of war 3, or MW2. No way if you put a kiosk of any of those games next to a kiosk of scribblenauts that people will flock to scribblenauts. NO WAY

Why this game? I know you want to support an small game, but come on out of Alan Wake, Mass Effect 2, Modern Warfare 2, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. You chose this game game a Nintendo DS game!!!!!!

A DS game won best @ E3? If this wasn't so stupid it'd be a pretty funny joke.

scribblenauts best overall?!?!

ign, what is wrong with you?!?!

Best Handheld: Scribblenauts vs GT PSP vs MGS PSP... ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!
Overall Game of the Show: How can you give this to Scribblenauts? Have I not mentioned enough games to completely discredit your article?

Everyone I hope you read MY article and come to the conclusion that IGN are just a bunch of sellouts and don't deserve the audience they have. If any of you think I'm mistaken please reply my message and I will gladly take to consideration what ever you tell me for future reference.

Overall Game of Show: Scribblenauts
hahaha theres a laugh
oh IGN you are the living end

Scribblenauts overall best of show?!?!?!?i took IGN as a joke before but now,hell i won't even visit this site anymore after this post

Okay, what the hell? Scribblenauts looks awesome, but it was NOT the best of the show. Please try again.

Scribblenauts looks skeptical. You would think they can put a little more effort in the graphics I mean seriously game looks like it was programmed by lazy people. Yes we know gameplay Is more important I agree but from what I seen you just type in something and it shows up on your screen I can do the same thing on google and it will show up on my screen. Hopefully there is some nice gameplay to the game as well.

AND COMMENTS OF THE SHOW AWARDS GO TO:

GODZ_PIZZAMAN, of IGN!

WHAT THE FUCK????

It's a double awesome victory! The best game won, and the hornet's nest of mouthbreathing idiots has been whipped into a frenzy. :lol

 

[Jocchan]

Wow, I feel dumber after reading those. Thank you, kind commenters, for now I have witnessed what pure idiocy is.

 

[Eteric Rice]

And those are the types of people I wish would leave gaming forever.

 

[TheOddOne]

Game is amazin', it won because it bring something new to the table.

:lol :lol :lol

that can't be serious...can it?? :| If it is, I'm surprise that person is able to type by himself.

Also, Scribblenauts is skeptical of what? Humanity?

That is a GOOD one, man...

It pleases the innermost corners of my heart that some people are destined to die in a fire.



Those websites make our Prototype thread look like high fuckin' tea.

Not even the game does know it, apparently.

 

[RagnarokX]

What does this even mean?!?

Scribblenauts doesn't believe in the moon landing.

 

[nny]

What does this even mean?!?

means that, after those posts, Maxwell is losing his faith in humanity.

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

I want to kick all of them in the nuts!

Ive starting to lose faith in humanity, I really hope those bastards dont bring to the world new kids. We dont need more of them.

Ah... I'm really looking forward to Heavy Rain. :\

 

[Piggus]

Leave it on ds.

So less people can play it? :/

Don't get me wrong, I have a DS and will be picking this up because it looks incredible. But that's just all the more reason that more people should be able to experience it. A game like this is a big step forward in my opinion and should get the attention that it rightfully deserves. I'm really glad the gaming press is picking up on it and letting people know how awesome it is.

 

[Wired]

Fuuuuuucking hell, if I was a mod on any board where those comments were posted it would result in a lifetime ban, I'm serious.

 

[Jocchan]

Ah... I'm really looking forward to Heavy Rain. :\

I'm also looking forward to the game, honestly. It looks interesting and I liked the beginning of Indigo Prophecy. What I cannot stand are the swarms of people championing it as a milestone in videogame history.

 

[pulga]

Sometimes, GAF can be a pain in the ass. But then I read posts like those and thank the heavens GAF exists. God, the level of idiocy on other boards is astounding.

 

[AniHawk]

Swarms of people? I don't think they'll find much company when the game finally releases. Should be a rather spectacular sales bomb.

Yeah it's an experience akin to reading youtube comments.

It makes your brain melt and start dripping out of your ears.
