What are they trying to do, make me relive my youth? Although this one is not by Atari.

I just saw this on Amazon. I hate to say it but I'm curious.

Eh, it's just another shitty licensed game. Don't go for it.

Huh????????? The game is called Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer but the description says...... "Experience hours of fun and absorbing game play in this superb adaptation of the Cartoon Network film Casper's Scare School. Compete in a series of sporting events to help Casper win Gold and stay ahead of the game!"

Oooooookay.

Yes it all looks screwed up. I bet its just some casual toy-making game.

SO anyone get/1st impressions of Haunted House? IIRC released Tues 10/5 last week...

If it was The Year Without A Santa Claus, it would feature the Heat and Cold Misers.

I'll bet it sucks but I actually like the look of the screen shots.

Hmm, no youtube videos yet either.

I am kind of curios. It would be nice if it was a real game, and not just some crappy collection of themed puzzles weve seen over and over again on the Wii.
That would be really cool actually, going on the whole adventure and seeing the Abominable Snowman. Even cooler if it included the animation on the disk..

Hehe "Silver and gold, silver and gold".

Can't find a source link right now, but Ataris next retro title actually is Star Raiders.

If there are no bouncing bumbles I'll be upset.

Sometimes I think that game designers have really gone off the deep end... WHO is the target audience here exactly?

Oktoberfest: The Official Game

Secondly, WHO in their right mind as a publisher would bankroll this? Hopefully that over-pronounced cleavage was thrown in as part of the bargain, or they got ripped off.

[ Also noticed that ONE copy is available. The urge to try and play something that is potentially eye-bleedingly bad has struck me. Oh yeah, I have other bad games I can play... ]

Rudolph, huh? Not so sure how that would fly today.

Now back in the 80s on the Atari 2600? They could've probably made a decent Rudolph game following the general plotline of the cartoon by making it a series of minigames. Naturally would be aimed toward children, but I think it would've been able to sell quite well back then.

But I just have my reservations about today. Sounds like the game in today's market might be more of a Misfit Toy, unfortunately. But we shall see.

Gee, look at all the wonderful features!

Quote

• Durable anodized surface makes sears, browns, caramelizes and deglazes with ease
• 98.7-Percent pure aluminum construction for superior conductivity
• Nonstick-roasting rack is easy to user and clean
• Oven and broiler safe to 700-degrees Fahrenheit; safe to use in metal utensil
• Nonstick-roasting rack is easy to use and clean

I don't think i want my Nintendo Wii to be caramelized, though. And I think 700-degrees would qualify as my Wii overheating.

If it also brew's coffee, put me down for two copies.
