Nice review of what seems to be a very interesting game that (if I owned a Wii), I'd be very interested in at least renting. If I had any qualms with it, it's that it feels a bit incomplete to me as far as how all of what you said fits together. Like, it seems to me that in an attempt to not give any spoilers, you might not have given enough information as to how the levels are designed, what your objectives are, how the humans fit into things, etc.

I know you control a spider or scorpion, you fight other insects/arachnids, humans are involved and snakes tend to be bosses, as well as that you get to have a bit of unrealistic fun with your critter of choice, doing neat attacks and stuff with them. But I guess, considering the very high rating you gave the game, I'd like a bit more info as to what's going on and why this game is such a high quality action game that happens to feature spiders and scorpions.

You're making me feel bad again about selling my Wii, Louis. Stop it.

In any case, if you can evoke emotion in your readers like you just did in me, you're doing something right. Good job.

Wow, big praise. I think this is the first review of this game I've read that hasn't been largely negative.

Really, Lewis? Ever since GameRankings went down I've been pretty out of touch on the professional consensus for current games, but I remember IGN gave it a favorable rating.

I'm planning on getting a Wii within the next week or so, and after I get all of the "big" titles, this is one of the games I've had my eye on. This review only reinforced that. So well done, I say.

"Negative" is harsh. I meant most aren't so gushingly positive. What's it Metacriticing at the moment, about 60-70% or something? Not that it matters.
