Loco Roco Demo!!!

[Tappy_Tibbons]

This game frikkin ROCKS. It is so unique and soulful!!

You have to update to 2.70 and then download the file because it does not come with the American firmware.

Which update is 2.7? I don't even know if I have that one yet. Loco Roco is one I've wanted to try.

These firmware updates are getting kinda ridiculous.

You know how Glockstar hates anything even remotely cutesy? If he were to see this game his head would explode into thousands of gristly bloody pieces of chunk. It's injected with only the purest and sweetest of sugars and supplemented with tons of puppy dogs and sunshine.

And be forewarned, you'll find yourself humming and singing along to the theme song even though you can't understand a word being said.

Too bad I don't know how to play the game since the instructions are in Japanese. I'll see if I can track down a translation somewhere...if I find one I'll post it here.

Control Instructions: Hold L or R to tilt the level. While tilting the level with one shoulder button, press the other one to make the blob jump in the direction the level is tilting.

You eat the red flowers to grow larger. Pressing circle causes you to separate into smaller blobs, and holding circle causes you to rejoin.

Okay, this game is awesome. I don't even know how to explain it's appeal, you just have to experience it for yourself.

Gadfly, you'll have a freakfit over it.

Does it have a pending release in the US?

[Renzatic Gear]

Yup. I think it's coming around September.

Hey, I resemble that remark.

No, seriously, that isn't true. That's just generalizing. Tho' it is hard to figure out what it is exactly that I hate and/or where I draw the line. Even I don't know.

I do know that I hate Mario's voice. And I hate the way a lot of anime - or anime-based - characters are animated.

But I like Daxter and Clank. I like Winnie the Pooh.

The cutest thing I've ever seen in a videogame are the characters in the Lego Star Wars game. But I like that game. And I love those guys! I guess I'm okay with them because they don't say anything.(?)


Anyways, it sounds like you're double-dog daring me to try this Loco Roco game. If that's the case, you're on!

I'd suggest checking out some videos (http://media.psp.ign.com/media/772/772060/vids_1.html) before you take the plunge. While I think the game is great, I can easily see how it could annoy the everliving piss out of someone that doesn't have a high tolerance for Japanese style quirky.

[Glockstar]

Yeah, let me do that. :p (I can't get that friggin thing to run anyhow.(!) I hate this thing sometimes.)

[Renzatic Gear]

This link should help you get it running. (http://forevergeek.com/psp/loco_roco_demo_released_for_psp.php) It's a fairly straightfoward process, but it's confusing because all the instructions on the site Tappy posted are in Japanese.

So after having played through the demo level about 6 times, I've managed to find all but 2 of the blobs, all 3 of the little black men, and am just 30 shy the max amount of fruit in that level. Needless to say I'm gonna be first in line when it comes out later this year.

I think you're all turning Japanese. I really think so.

For some reason, ever since I updated my PSP to 2.7, I cannot connect to an access point.
