Billy Hatcher & the Giant Egg
Billy Hatcher & the Giant Egg Publisher: Sega Developer: Sonic Team Platform: GameCube ~i was recently introduced to playing the demo for this upcoming game...originally, i held little interest for this platform game because: 1 - i was unwares of this being a Sonic Team project.. =. 2 - it was about a character rolling chicken eggs around a 3D world.. -.O *cough* alright, with all that aside - upon finding out who was designing this game (& me being such a zealot for PsO.. ;p), i figured - ok, why not? at first, the premise is ODD - this character - Billy Hatcher (i assume this to be his name..) - has to save the world from darkness by rolling eggs from 1 checkpoint to the next; upon doing so, he manages the care of his egg by feeding it, & yes - it grows...the size determines the level of control.. first impression - ST finally lost their sanity, too much PsO programming drove them over the edge...but after playing it - it's addictive, fun & did i mention fun? the animation is clean, the character designs are really creative - truly, a mark of ST's ability & that chicken suit gets funnier everytime i play...in short, i look forward to it.. ^.- anyone else tried it? |

I really like the graphics and clips I've seen so far. I admit, I'm still a bit skeptical. I'd like to get my hands on the demo. I think they have it on a GameCube preview disk for like $9.99 somewhere. Anyhow, the game is nice and clean huh? Nothing I like more than that. ^_^ How are the controls and camera angles? I really liked Sonic Adventure 2, but sometimes the camera angles were just.... ugh. Hopefully this one grants more freedom than that title.
Oops, fixed the typo now. ^_^; How I overlooked that, I don't know... >.> -------------------- PSN ID: USF_Tailgater

Yeah! Camera Angels! (I promise I'm not picking on your spellin' Mute, I just get tired of being called "Angle" so I think it's nice when someone transposes "angle" into "angel." I read an article on this game, and it looks pretty interesting, although initially when reading it I had the same "ST has gone bonkers" thought run through my head...hehe. I'll have to get a hold of that demo disk -------------------- |

Well, has anyone got this game?
The graphics look top notch. Very Sonic. And the character models look eggcellent! The theme music on the Sega site kicks booty! I was, like you guys seem to be, a little hesitant about this game. But, after watching the video, I think I might have changed my mind. I have not played the demo. It be nice if I could find the disk for cheap. Seeing as how it's a few months old now and some of the games have come out already. -------------------- |

I played this game too lol, I can't say that I enjoy this game as much as I enjoy Sonic but it's still fun on its own. The game itself is pretty easy. Target is selling the game right now for 29.99 I believe.
*SPOILER* There's a Rappy in the Sonic Eggs |
