Yeah i really appreciate the uprise in quick look video's!

"It really is Call of Duty 4" haha, i knew you were going to say that.

It looks... interesting... to be honest, it looks a little tedious and boring, but oddly satisfying when burning things.

I compelted this last night, one thing you can do that wasnt in the video is when you have monsters leashed is press X and he will throw it to The Maw.

"The Maw's kind of a dick..."

REVIEW = DONE



Great work Jeff ;)

Novel idea, but lazy execution. Having to eat all those creatures in each level is a bad way to artificially make the game longer.

That being said, I want to play something like this now! I've been surrounded by crazy intense games for far too long; The Maw looks relaxing and oddly satisfying.

This game seems kinda crazy.

I also like the quick look vids.  I'm really glad about this one because it saves me a purchase.  Didn't look too fun :(

Looks fun.  I heard the game isn't very long so I might get it when it becomes and Arcade Hits or something.

Watching Jeff play this game was more exciting than playing the game itself.

I love these first looks, this needs to become a regular thing.

I don't know, I kinda liked the demo. I thought eating stuff was pretty satisfying.

Lovin' the Quick Look videos guys. Thanks!

This game just confused the hell outta me...

Nice video. The game looks like it could have benefited from having a more Overlord-style control scheme.
Mattalorianon Jan. 22, 2009 at 1:42 p.m.
I approve of these "Quick Look" videos, although the game itself looks much less interesting.
TrueEnglishGenton Jan. 22, 2009 at 1:47 p.m.
It is kind of funny I guess!

Confusing as hell though and does look kina dull in areas!
darkjester74on Jan. 22, 2009 at 1:47 p.m.
Played the demo, really enjoyed it.  One of the better XBLA games, IMO.

more of these videos, they're awesome

This game looks meh. I can't really tell if I like it or not.

And these Quick Look videos are really cool, keep it up!
