Review: The Next BIG Thing

I honestly wouldn't have bought this game if it weren't on sale, but the concept looked interesting and so I thought I'd give it a try. I'm glad that I didn't buy this alone and there are other games to capture my attention because, quite frankly, this game thoroughly annoyed me. 

Sure, it's a nice concept. The reporters following leads, finding clues, figuring out creative ways to use completely (and otherwise should be) useless materials, monsters (er... well this part is debatable); but the 1950's style wasn't pulled off to the best of its abilities and, I swear to god, if I hear another person say, "Ayo" I think I might just kill myself. 

I hated the dialogue. Hated. Liz does not need to repeat "Dan Murray"'s name every time she speaks to him. Liz also doesn't need to be a psychopath. Maybe this game wasn't meant for my age range... Maybe this was all a dream...

Nope. I actually paid for this.

Damn it.

On the bright side, at least some of the other games (one at least that I've tried) in the Pendulo Adventure pack weren't that bad...

Score: 3/10
Price: $2.49 (during the sale)/$9.99 (full price)
Platform: PC 

P.S. What the hell? You can't even play this is windowed mode. Seriously, what kind of madness is that?
