Lucidity

Interesting idea, but I think Lucasarts were a little too fond of the idea to revise it when it wasn't fun to play. Look past the surreal dreamy imagery and you've got a tedious little game on your hands that is not very fun at all.

I love how XBLA lets you download a free trial. Saves me from buying stuff like this and instantly regretting it.

Seems I'm not alone, either. I've seen mostly negative comments on the game so far.

Developers should really create demos before they are allowed to create whole games. Then, if the demo gets a good response, they should be given the go-ahead. It would save us from a lot of (by no means all!) crappy games and save companies a lot of money.

Of course, we'd also have to kill all the douchebags that give poor scores to anything that doesn't involve weapons, manly men in space suits, and bouncing breasts.

God damn, there's so many of them.

Unfortunately, the audience for that kind of junk outnumbers us to the point where what WE want out of our games is not quite as significant as one would like...
