Oct. 12 - Super Scribblenauts hits shelves!

Hot new DS title by Warner Bros. arrives.

That was fast... a little too fast. Never got around to the first one...

I missed the first one too. I'm not going to miss this one though!

I got the first one. It was fun and very creative. Quite an accomplishment. It still got old pretty fast, though.

The first one was shit, dont buy into the hype.

While I wouldn't go so far as Triz, I didn't really describe well in my last post. The first one had a lot of hype, I think, mainly because it was quite a technical accomplishment. Unfortunately, that didn't translate well into fun gameplay.

I know a lot of people these days claim to like wide-open "sandbox" games where you can do anything you want to, (I don't,) but when you go too far, it makes games kind of directionless.

The game was a ton of fun to just fiddle with for awhile, but it was 90% novelty, which just doesn't hold up long. It wasn't crap by any means, despite what Triz says, but it also wasn't really worth $30.

you are right Antilles. I bought into the hype picked it up and had fun for 5 minutes. Then I realized the controls were trash and the novelty was gone, so I stand by my assesment that the game is trash.

Sounded fun, but as you said Antilles, mostly a novelty. The adjectives are a nice touch BUT... sounds like it could make it even more directionless.
