    tehcoolryan you're not very good at posting. In general.

    Yeah, the Napolean Dyynmite game was just a collection of crappy minigames, wasn't it? I figure that might be the same thing.

    I would bet cash money that it will be a lazy collection of minigames rushed to release to try and catch some of the hype the movie is pulling in. I'll be it will either hit right after the movie is out of the second run theaters, or right before the DVD release.

    Also, they must capture the feeling of inappropriate sexual tension between old men and children.

    It wasn't good enough to get a lot of things. Namely all of the attention, crazily good reviews and best picture nomination. I hope this is as related to the movie as the Wayne's World game was related to that movie. Because that shit was nonsense.

    One day, someone is going to challenge all the gaming conventions and make people rethink what exactly a video game is. But something tells me it won't be a movie license.

    I think someone already tried a pretty cool arcade game about dating but I can't remember the name.

    It would be better if it was a Look Who's Talking game.

    Bitchin' soundtrack? Check.
    Bruce Willis? Check.
    Crazy Taxi style cab driving minigame? Check.
    Kirstie Alley (before she got fat)? Check.

    Formula for GOTY, I'm telling you.
