IGN gives Viewtiful Joe a 9.5 score

I picked it up today for 39.99, and I had a 10% discount. So the total plus tax came to like 37. What an Amazing game. It reminds me of way back when, when games were just plain fun. They didnt have to have a plot, amazing graphics or sound, but they were hella fun. And Viewtiful Joe is. If you've ever liked an Old-school 2D side scroller/Fighter/Platform...you'll love it.

Whew! Well, I picked it up, and I must say, I'm thoroughly amazed. I got a free collector's watch with it and it came to $50 Canadian. Very good, considering some places had $55 and $60. I heard EB had $45, but they sold through.

Overall, just an amazing game. The graphics are SUPERB, the voice acting is SUPERB, the sound is SUPERB, and the Gameplay is Awesome!

Just.. Viewtiful!

P.S. I love all the Nintendo and Capcom references. I won't ruin them though for anyone who hasn't played it yet. =D Go, find some way to play this game, and buy it. It's cheap, you get something free, and you get an awesome game. It's amazing. @_@

*earlier that day*

DM "Hey, do you have Viewtiful Joe bobble heads?"
EB Clerk "Yep, here you go"
DM "Sweet"

Future Shop. I think the watch thing was only this week, because she said there were only a few left at our store, and there was only one copy left.

I played this game and I hated it.

I got the game. It's awesome, love the VFX powers.

The only problem is that I don't want to play the game so much because I know I'll beat it. The game is short, I know, so I'll have to try and not play so much regardless of how fun it is...
