it's that attitude which is killing the games industry.
"i dislike this variation", well then it's your lucky day because we're bang in the middle of the pre-christmas rush of mediocre copycat games that needed neither inventiveness to create nor imagination to play. you may as well just buy 1 game, 1 movie and 1 cd, because surely everything else would be variant?

I pity you Cubist - and your crap, sad ways.
Be gone from my sight.

If you want to know who the friend is then I'll tell you it's Phuzzy. Ask him if you don't believe me but I'm telling you it's scary how like Power Rangers it is. Go go mishapen freak! **rolls eyes**
Power Rangers? That just proved you've obviously just made up this 'friend' who has the game. It's more like a fish tank than Power Rangers.

As for the characters being disproportionate I'd like to point out that that doesn't MAKE a game. It as an unconvential aspect that can occassionaly be associated with games but that's it. Many games have characters which are in proportion, this is irregular and I dislike this variation. The T.V. show i was mentioning was feckin' power rangers **shudders** I mean seriously, he becomes a lycra clad hero when he says a special phrase?!? Why doesn't he just say "Go go feckin' power rangers!" for gods sake. Grr it's so bad. Also what I said is not a contradiction. What I meant to say was to rate it properly I should play it but morally i don't think it deserves it as it looks terrible.

Once again someone is trying to enforce their beliefs upon others as if they have the last word. Well get used to people disagreeing with you because people do in the real world. I would also like to point out that as I have already said I have only formed a part opinion by commenting on the visual and sound aspects I have beheld. It's not as if I'm going on about Gameplay or anything. That would be stupid but I'm not. Just judging on what I've seem which i dislike.

You can't form a partial opinion of a game you've never played. Games are for playing.

"The characters are disproportionate", he says. Well, erm, that makes a game now, doesn't it? Er, no. What TV show is this that you're implying that it rips off, because I doubt there's any TV show anywhere that follows the same plotline as Viewtiful Joe. And I'm not even going to talk about the stupidly contradictory term in your last sentence.

If you judge a game by it's looks, you're officially an idiot. I'll play a good game no matter what kind of style it has, as long as the game is enjoyable. And enjoyable is precisely what Viewtiful Joe is. However, some are too narrow-minded to accept this kind of genius.
