    Yeah, 2D Boy deserves some success for making a game this good.

    I thoroughly recommend that everyone who hasn't already ordered it goes out and buys it on release day!

    Re: World of Goo

    Good review on eurogamer: http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=249671 Apparently I should punch myself in the face lol. I still think it should be $10 / &#163;5 tbh. I wonder how much it will be on steam. $20 I guess.

    Re: World of Goo

    I've heard of this for a while, but will probably end up getting this on the Wii, its going to be available on their WiiWare download section sometime... If I get impatient then will probably get it on PC...

    And for those of you who can remember that far.... this seems like lemmings (Google it...) doesnt it... And that has to be one of the greatest comments to bestow on a game. Same simple concept and seems to have been executed just as well...

    Re: World of Goo

    I read a thread about this over at some other gaming forums and instantly pre ordered. Played through the first chapter that pre orderers get!

    Absolutely brilliant. Great fun. If any of you like physics based games whats so ever it is a MUST buy.

    Cost £12 and the first chapter took me 2 and a half hours.

    Only thing the game is missing is a level creator. If that was included it could litteraly go on for ever with a decent sized community.

    For all you physics lovers: Armadillo Run. This is my favorite all time puzzle game. Which there is a demo of. Its well worth the cash and I still play it regularly (bought it over a year ago) due to the level maker with player made levels getting released on the website.

    Wish World Of Goo could do that too.


    Needs new monitor / speakers / headphones / keyboard.
    Before that i need money :s

    I did like the demo of that. Might buy it even if I am a Scrooge and it costs &#163;10. Recommend everyone takes a look at that.

    Some reviews of armadillo:
