It has 2 player co-op on the single player campaing but it isn't like NSMB or Rayman. Player 2 controls a flying character that can interract with the backround to find items or help with enemies ect. and does zero platforming. When playing alone you control the character with the right analogue but the actions of the character are more limited.
Tomorrow.
To be honest, i was a bit surprised myself. I haven't pre-ordered anything before on PSN so i'm not sure if it's normal or not? In my downloadlist, there was a link to download the game and install it (just like any other PSN game). I took a while (10.5Gb download + install) but i now have a Puppeteer icon in my XMB. When i click it, it tells me the content is not playable yet. I haven't got a clue if it's the full version (the demo was 5 Gb) and if it's normal thoughWe'll see next week i guess...
Usually the game downloads itself a week or so before release. Money is removed from your account (or charged to your credit card) a couple of days before release. The game becomes playable at 1am on release day.Expecting 8.5 to be lowest
I have two controllers and a pair of feet.
Webstore?
i was leaning towards trading in stuff at gamestop to pick it up, but looks like i wont have to!That's optimistic. Even if it's great I feel like there are plenty of reviewers who automatically dock a point for it being a retail platformer, because, you know, it's not as innovative as minor variations on the FPS formula that's been used since the early-mid 90's.
Yeah, there is something DKCR-esque about the handling, which is a wonderful thing indeed, although nothing happens when I try to jump mid-air while rolling off a ledge, lol.
Agreed. Sony's unwavering support of weird new titles is awesome.
Nope. You can use the scissors to chop up enemies and also use the secondary character to pull off their heads, as well as Kutaro's (these are actually trophies).
Why can't digital purchases get the same treatment as buying in the store?
I really want to buy this on digital but I'm a huge sucker for soundtracks & extra digital crap for no reason.
Something cool about using the scissors to attack is that with the basic Kutaro-sized enemies (Grubs, I think they're called?), you can kind of juggle them with the scissors. In reality you probably only need to hit them twice -- once to stun them so they expose their tendril-like weak point, and again to snip the tendril and free the child's soul trapped inside -- but it's fun to repeatedly hit them so that they juggle above you.
