Activision’s SpongeBob Squarepants Planktons Robotic Revenge Nintendo 3DS

by Leave a Comment

Now, I’m skeptical at what my husband has done here. He purchased a Nintendo 3DS for MomStart. He says it’s a business expense because I’ve received about four Nintendo 3DS games and we couldn’t play them so we couldn’t review them in any way. I never asked to receive these games they just show up on my doorstep. So now we can review them and Activation’s SpongeBob Squarepants Planktons Robotic Revenge for the Nintendo 3DS is one of the first. This is another game that we received and my son used on his trip from Seattle to Texas and Back

  • JUMPING JELLYFISH: Jump in and out of gameplay at any time with 3 of your friends. With local multiplayer, if at least one player continues, so does the game!

The game was developed by Behavior Interactive, and published by Activision, whom took over the license from previous SpongeBob SquarePants video game publisher THQ after the company’s closure. Home console versions of the game will feature four-player co-op, whilst the Wii U version will allow for an additional fifth player when using a GamePad with four other controllers. Portable versions are solely single-player games. SpongeBob_3DS_FOB

This game is really fun. You can play with the controller or the Kinect in this one. In Wipeout Create and Crash you can create your own obstacle courses. You can also send those courses to your friends.
There are also 12 episodes you can play through which will take a couple hours. There are over 50 different obstacles the game will throw at you. Some of the obstacles are difficult while some are just too easy. The episodes were pretty fun and you should enjoy it!

Activision ABC Wipeout 3 Xbox 360 Kinect Video Game

by 6 Comments

imageWelcome Back To Wipeout! Except this is my first encounter with the game and as I’ve looked at reviews of the older versions it looks like I’m lucky I started out with Wipeout 3. Of course, being in the tech field, I understand that it takes a while to get the programming with a new technology like the Kinect right. I’ve noticed with a lot of newer games they are a lot more forgiving than the older ones. It’s getting easier and easier for my kids to play, yes they are getting older and more coordinated but I can also see the forgiveness. If the kids can play it without getting frustrated then I’m satisfied and I’m satisfied with Wipeout 3. I love that this game’s activity level is active. It rains so much here it’s nice to have something for the kids to do indoors that keeps them jumping and moving.

Game Play:

You can just use your arms as you would as if you were running. To jump, you lift your hands up in the air. You can tilt your body backwards or forwards to adjust or when you’re in the air to go further or shorter. With the current Wipeout, you have 3 attempts to master that obstacle. At that point, if you failed the game would advance you past that obstacle.
