Agreed. Boom Blox looks like it would get old very fast... I don't understand the appeal, and I don't think it would have any popularity at all if it wasn't for Speilburg's name on it.

Oh stop bashing and just get on with getting Blast Works.
It's not like bashing will do anything.

Bashing is part of our opinion of said topic, which is the whole reason to post. IE: discussion about topics here can sometimes show opinion of the topic, imagine that.

Bashing is also what PS3fanboys and Xbox360fanboys and Wiihaters love to do.
It gives my brain a rotten aftertaste whenever I think about it.
As far as I can tell, most other "bad" games in this site weren't bashed on. But just because people actually WANT to get the game, it gives people the complete right to bash on it. As if you could sway our opinions about the game.
You know, like what people do with No More Heroes and Super Smash Brothers Brawl.
We say we hate them for doing that, and there we go, doing it ourselves.
Doesn't seem like progress to me.
But I suppose if you want me to give you my previous response through an opinionated manner: "Hey, get a life. Hating will only make you waste your breath on deaf ears."

Calm down there Josh the world won't implode due to shovelware and excess mini-games...actually it will. Boom Blox isn't a mini game pack its a puzzle game that actually has had thought put into it.
Which I can't wait for!

I really want Boom Blox, but I'm still going through Okami, and haven't even played Mario Kart Wii yet. And then there's WiiWare next week.
I need to learn how to stop time, or something.

Also still working on Okami...that game is ridiculously long (and awesome).
I got to a point that i was sure was the end and it was just the beggining, i was actually like 1/4 way through the game. I think i've put like 25 hrs or something into it already and am only half way through.
But i think this looks fun, i like puzzles, and it looks like something my girlfriend could get into.

I'm all up in that Boom Blox. i haven't been this unerservedly excited for a game in quite a while.
(That includes Kart Wii, which I still have a lot of trepidations about.)

How exactly was Spielberg involved in this game? Was he the likeness for the monkey?

He came up with the idea. And he had money.
That's all that's needed to take credit. :P

What's Dog Island like? It sounds kinda cool. Maybe a horror game where you fight zombie dogs? Or an RPG where you grow your own dogs and fight against evil zombie dogs? Or maybe a platformer where you jump on zombie dogs?
....
Just tell me there are zombie dogs!?

It's not really a minigame. But if you fail to see the difference between a fully-functional building game with great physics, and a short minigame with simple actions - then who am I to stop you?
