World Of Goo Review: Fun Bounces Off Me And Sticks To You
Know that I am not a “puzzles man”. Narrative-driven problems in an adventure game, I can do, but a wholly-dedicated puzzle game? Not for me. The endless repetition, the cold, sterile environments and the focus on head-scratching over finger-twitching seems more like punishment than enjoyment. More »

The Best World of Goo "Review" Yet
I stumbled across this "review" of World of Goo courtesy the boys at Rock, Paper, Shotgun and nearly ruined my laptop while reading, as I spewed my morning cup of coffee all over the screen. Andrew Doull, IT manager and occasional GameSetWatch columnist, wrote an homage to the game in the form of EA CEO John Riccitiello fan fiction. Yes, fan fiction. Which includes ninjas, an evil plot against our own Brian Crecente, and much raving about those damn 'little guys' who keep managing to pull out big hits: More »

Weekly Wii Update: Goo Art And Secret Mana Street Fighters
Nothing makes me wish I were at home with my Wii and not in a hotel on a borrowed laptop more than a really good weekly Wii update, and this one certainly qualifies. Both WiiWare and the Virtual Console alike are getting two excellent selections each this week, and it all starts with Goo. Yes, World of Goo, the indie game that we've drooled over muchly in the past has just hit Nintendo's WiiWare service for a relatively modest 1,500 Wii Points, joined by the second in Nintendo's Art Style series, Cubello at an extremely modest 600 points.

2D Boy Drops Historic First F-Bombs During A Nintendo Presentation. Kudos to 2D Boy's Kyle Gabler, for bringing the adult language to the Nintendo Media Summit. It's certainly the first Nintendo media presentation to feature the phrase "Fuck that" delivered by a presenter. Later, Kyle kept it rated-M by announcing that other games "can totally fuck you" in relation to asynchronous multiplayer in the WiiWare's World of Goo. Oh, and World of Goo looked gorgeous on WiiWare. Off to play it!

You Just Won IGF! That Means...?
It's the Sundance of gaming. Or is it? That was bandied about (and overheard) a lot at this year's Independent Games Festival. Sure, the festival has been around for ten years, but this year, things were different. What, with the PlayStation Network, Xbox LIVE Arcade and WiiWare providing very real outlets for indie games, these games suddenly have a market with publishers are looking for the next Everyday Shooter.

IGF Focus: World of Goo
Trying to keep up with all the Independent Games Festival nominees is quite a chore, much less trying to actually play them. But, every once in a while, one really sticks out and really makes you want to play it. Such is the case with Kyle Gabler and Ron Carmel's gorgeous and quirky World of Goo. Under the name 2D Boy, gabler and Carmel have created a captivating game experience that has netted them three award nominations in this year's IGF: the Design Innovation Award, Technical Excellence Award and the highly coveted Seumas McNally Grand Prize.
