Sir Clinksalot Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 Can't wait for this. Already at the top of our list for fall of 2009.
Mochtroid Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 You made Aladdin? Second fave Genesis game after Sonic. Â Also, the cutest clay ever made: http://kotaku.com/5314903/a-boy-and-his-home+made-blob
ajinaz Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 It's now available for pre-order on Amazon. Congratulations Robb!
HELIXJ Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Sweet going to pre-order one now! Â The game looks awsome Robb
robbalvey Posted September 22, 2009 Author Posted September 22, 2009 Keep an eye out for the next issue of Nintendo Power for some great Blob coverage and a fantastic review!!! Â
ernierocker Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 Game Insider magazine had a preview of the game this month. It discussed the seven transformations of the blob. I love puzzle-solving games like this, so I will probably be buying this game! Looking forward to playing a version of this game where I don't end up throwing it across the room.
ernierocker Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 Looks like I read that wrong the first time. The article actually talks about the first seven forms they encountered. My bad.
CorkscrewFoley Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 Nice, now there's another game to seduce me into getting a Wii (although I've wanted one for awhile). Congrats Robb, this was one of my favourite Nintendo games (and I have the emulator on my Dreamcast).
FeelTheFORCE Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 I liked the preview in GamePro also...looking good Robb!
derek_lentz Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 Robb Alvey: Does The 7th Guest ring a bell? Wow! That game brings back some memories. I remember playing that game for a long time. I absolutely loved the story line of the 7th Guest. I am definitely looking forward to trying this one out.
Maximo37 Posted September 30, 2009 Posted September 30, 2009 Just two more weeks... I can't wait to hug blob!...
dammie16@vt.edu Posted September 30, 2009 Posted September 30, 2009 I had never played these games in the past, or heard of them for that matter, but since I "Know" Robb I will def. pick this up because it sounds like it would be worthwhile. Â Glad you posted this here because it would certainly be a game I would have never given a chance.
Maximo37 Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 8.5 from Nintendo Power... That's AWESOME!!! One week to go... Can't wait to return and explore Blobolonia all over again...
Erik Johnson Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 Trailer!  http://wii.ign.com/dor/objects/14326534/a-boy-his-blob/videos/boyandblob_trl_trailer_90309.html   Video Review!  http://wii.ign.com/dor/objects/14326534/a-boy-his-blob/videos/boyandhisblob_vidrev_100908.html
Maximo37 Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 Seriously cannot wait to play this. Grabbing it Wednesday morning on my way home from work (along with a 6 pack of Amber Bock)... "BLOB"... (gives hug to Blob...) Â And here is an incredible review from gametrailers.com... 8.5=AWESOME! Â http://www.gametrailers.com/video/review-a-boy-and/57585 Â Â Â ************************************************************************** (edited AGAIN!!) Â Okay... picked the game up this morning (10/14) on my way home from work and played it for an hour... and it simply rocks so far... can't wait to play a little later on again after visiting Typhoon Lagoon (for a beer, perhaps two) and a quick nap in the lazy river... AWESOME (and beautiful) GAME!!! BUY IT!!
disneyfan1313 Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 We got this game today and all I can say is WOW! What an addictive game! Really takes all that was great about the original and turns it into a great "modern" puzzler. I also love the fact that the blob makes a "nom nom nom" sound when he eats the treasure chests..
robbalvey Posted October 20, 2009 Author Posted October 20, 2009 ^ Thanks guys! Glad you are enjoying it so far! Â --Robb
Maximo37 Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 And one more amazing review for good measure... This is one of the best ones I've read yet!!! It's from the NintendoLife website...  http://wii.nintendolife.com/reviews/2009/10/a_boy_and_his_blob_wii  If there were any doubters, then let that change your mind. A Boy and His Blob "WiiMake" is old school goodness with a new coat of absolutely fresh paint... I've convinced a couple of co-workers to make the purchase too. And they are also loving it!  I'm about 1/2 through the 2nd world. Having trouble finding some of those pesky treasure chests. I haven't yet resorted to any FAQs or walk-throughs. And don't plan on it until absolutely necessary.  Great job and congratulations on this amazing title Robb.
robbalvey Posted October 20, 2009 Author Posted October 20, 2009 I'm about 1/2 through the 2nd world. Having trouble finding some of those pesky treasure chests. I haven't yet resorted to any FAQs or walk-throughs. And don't plan on it until absolutely necessary. I will tell you they are not all easy to find, but we did spend a LOT of time trying to make sure the levels are fun to re-play when you go back and try to get 100%. Â --Robb
Sir Clinksalot Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 Planning on picking it up this week, but most likely won't play it for awhile. Â From this point on, any movies/games we buy end up under the Christmas tree. I'm really looking forward to playing it though.
Emiroo Posted October 21, 2009 Posted October 21, 2009 Robb - Â Are you at liberty to discuss the development timeline of the game? We'd all love to hear any other development anecdotes as well... Â P.S. Care you share your inital thoughts about Epic Mickey?
ajm1240 Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 Blob got some love on the "At1Up" podcast. Â Apparently, the chicks love the "Hug" button. Â http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/podcast.the1upnetwork.com/flat/1UPFM/AT1UP102009.mp3 Â (Remember, right click, save as...) Â Blob talk at the 24min mark.
disneyfan1313 Posted November 2, 2009 Posted November 2, 2009 Still enjoying this great title quite a bit - Are there any Easter Eggs you can share with us?
