Slog - Comments on UR MR GAY http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/11/ur_mr_gay Hey, fellow Seattle gaming addicts. I'm assuming at least a few of you will be lining up on Sunday to buy what just arrived at my doorstep: But I'm not just posting this to brag. (By the way--NAH NAH NA-NAH, NAH! PHHHHBT!) See, Mario titles are like the Disney animated movies of the game world--high production values, ridiculously targeted to kids, still somehow fun for everybody...and, at least with this game, conspiracy theories about weird, hidden sex jokes. If you take a close look at that box art, you'll see a few letters with sparkly effects on their edges. Turns...

It looks similar in scope, in that it's fucking HUGE, but it also looks just as fun. I'm jealous of you, you gaming bastard.

First impression--immediately fun and accessible, but it's making me a little dizzy. Like previews of the game have shown, this title's all about running around on tiny little planets. Thing is, the way the camera follows you around has, so far, set in a bit of motion sickness, and this is coming from a guy who normally isn't affected by 3D games like that. But I honestly haven't played much, thanks to some distractions that came up, so don't consider that an end-all opinion. The camera stuff may clear up very early on into the game. But the first half-hour...well, watch out.

People seem to love it so far.
