Oh dear. My mom is the biggest arachnaphobe I've ever seen. Like, if a spider is on TV she'll run to the other room until someone changes the channel. EVen if it's a cartoon.

I'm so getting this game and inviting her over for some Wii gaming. Does that make me sick?

...

Was I the only person who thought this was a joke?

I will be staying far far away from this game too, but not because of my arachnophobia, but because of the fact that this game looks like it was made by a 5 years old boy...

Here was the pitch for the game,
Game Designer: "We got this exiting new franchise we have been working on, it is a mulitplayer and single player game where you form teams with your friends and attempt to battle other clans for control of territories online, your clan or group will be able to build weapons together using the game's weapon forge function, which will load the weapons online to the central server and make them available for download or purchase by other clans if the weapon becomes widely accepted over time. The territories are differentiated and will span from all sorts of different levels such as snow, or the mountains, grasslands, the center of an abandonned city and a rainforest with weather effects. Vehichles can be used to crush your opponents team and to break down barriers built by the other team, we will be adding tanks and jeeps, motorcycles ect. You can customize the look of your charachter so that your team will remember it is you playing. We will add downloadable maps and weapons as real time progresses outside the game world!"
Operations Manager: "Hmmm sounds expensive."
Game Design: "Or we could always just make a shitty spider game for the Wii."
Operations Manager: "Thats genious!"

@MosesMonster:

Agreed. They make them more real, and then you don't want to play certain aspects of the game. I'm just barely at the point I can look at a fake plastic/rubber spider from across the room. :/

If this were a horror game though, with giant insects, count me in, I'd play it, if only for the shear horror of wetting myself nightly as I play it.

Game looks sick. Not sure if the trailer is actual ingame or cut scenes but the game at this point looks nice. It's pretty much a guaranteed rental for me at this point. I'm going to be looking forward to initial impressions on this.

I agree with all the assesments of people saying at least THQ IS TRYING. Nice to see something different. I mean one of 3 things could happen.

1.It could suck
2.It could be mediocre
3. It could be good

But you'll never know, hats off on them for trying.

There are so many people with fear or issues with the creepy crawlies. Hopefully they will over come it.

This is certainly an original concept, I love it! I hope it's executed just as well but I fear that it's sales won't do so well. It seems almost anyone I talk to is deathly afraid of spiders if not snakes, scorpions, etc. Never been bugged (haha, pun was unintentional) terribly by insects and creepy-crawlies myself but I'm sure this is one to that'll under my skin.

I'll probably show it off to my sister just to mess with her though.

@holysocks: Apparently you've never heard of arachnaphobia. It has nothing to do with "crying like little girls lolol i r a macho", it's just a common fear that most people have.

Atmospheric insect battle simulator eh? I know this isn't going to be an interactive nature show or anything, but if they could base the structure of the gameplay around the actual habits and routines of the real thing it could be an effective way of sneaking education into visceral entertainment.

That said... that scorpion causes a surprising amount of bone crushing noises when body slamming it's opponents.

It'll be so weird trying to take on a person in this game, seeing as I'm far more likely to empathize with him than a scorpion. D:
