Well I do know having played it!You'll never know. Some of those movie/cartoon/tv show games get some good ratings[7-8] from IGN.
Phew... *wipes forehead* I'm glad that the cover informs me of "the official videogame" nature of this title. For a minute there I thought this was that cheap Golden Compass clone by Seegaa.
The only thing I want to know is why Gamespot has a launch center for this game.Â
Other notable games that Gamespot has recently had launch centers for: Phantom Hourglass, Super Mario Galaxy and Call of Duty 4.
You mean to tell me that Golden Compass somehow warrants standing beside those mammoth titles?!
The Golden Compass (book) is actually a very good read. I personally hated Narnia, and TGC is alot different. They probably used this box art to make it seem more Narnia-ish based on the movies success. I haven't watched the movie, but I probably won't as most book->movie transitions make me want to kill all those involved.
Yeah, it's kind of weird that I haven't. I've read The Hobbit and half of The Fellowship. I got bored with it, but it's not the book's fault - I'm just very hard to please. I'm not a big fan of Tolkien's style, though I can't really figure out why. Another example is that I wasn't even motivated to read the 6th or even the 7th HP books, despite my stance that it is indeed a great series.
Back to the topic at hand, I'm the same as you Mewgia: I want to see the movie regardless of the reviews only because I want to see how they handled the adaptation. After, it can't ruin a book I've already read countless times - it can only shed a different point of view on it, which I welcome. And who knows? It might be good.
Just don't play the game. It starts off WITH Iorek in the North on the way to save Roger. What happened to the whole book? Haha, watch, the movie will be like that, too.
There have been many good cash in games since Aladdin, but recently I enjoyed Spider-Man 3 GBA, TMNT GBA & Heroes Mobile. A lot of people liked Transformers DS but I didn't.Has anyone played a good cashin lately? I don't remember a solid game since Aladdin. :/
