Atari announces The Chase for DS: Destructoid announces ham, for salad photo

Atari is pleased to announce a new heart pounding game, The Chase: Felix Meets Felicity available on Nintendo DS. This is a fast-paced game in which players navigate their way through bizarre obstructions, interruptions and mishaps, using the stylus to draw a path to the object of their affection.  The Chase: Felix Meets Felicity is scheduled for release in February 2009 exclusively on Nintendo DS.

Destructoid is pleased to announce a new mouth watering meal, Ham available with salad. This is a tasty treat in which gastronomes navigate their tongues through crisp lettuce, finely chopped tomato and sensational pinkened ham, using a fork to grasp and take to their mouths the object of their affection. Ham is scheduled for release in February 2009 exclusively with salad.

NEW YORK, NY – November 10, 2008 – Atari brings a fresh approach to platforming on Nintendo DS™ with The Chase: Felix Meets Felicity, the fast-paced game in which players navigate their way through bizarre obstructions, interruptions and mishaps, using the stylus to draw a path to the object of their affection.  The Chase: Felix Meets Felicity is scheduled for release in February 2009 exclusively on Nintendo DS.

Join in the adrenaline rush by jumping in the shoes of Felix or Felicity to race across town in time to rendezvous. To make it unscathed, players need to deftly navigate a series of obstacle-laden environments without ever letting up the break-neck pace.  Run, jump, dodge and slide through hectic scenarios while desperately trying to stay ahead of the clock and weather. The pick-up-and-play gameplay makes ingenious use of the Nintendo DS stylus to draw platforms to climb and hop across, dodging difficult barriers and any cold-hearted misanthropes who get in the way.

"We wanted to create a high quality action platformer that had lots of personality to it while keeping the great arcade-style gameplay to the fore," said David Geudelekian, Producer, Atari.  "We've brought the best of old school arcade platforming to the new-generation DS while making the most of the hardware in terms of graphics and the clever use of the stylus in gameplay.  The result is a great example of classic arcade action brought right up to date for the DS."<

"Our goal with The Chase: Felix Meets Felicity is to create a game that is not only great fun with brilliant original gameplay, but something that competes with the very best platform titles on DS," said Cyril Voiron, VP Brand Management, Worldwide Publishing, Atari. "In a busy DS market we're investing the time and effort to deliver a fun and innovative game of exceptional quality to DS owners everywhere."
The Chase: Felix Meets Felicity, developed by Razorback, is scheduled for release exclusively on Nintendo DS in February 2009.  For more information about Atari's entire line up visit www.atari.com.

This looks kinda fun, but what's with the GIGANTIC SCREENSHOTS? It's a DS-game for god's sake! The shots should be small!

Ham is on my must-have list for 2009.

"Delicious," says IGN.

"This is the other PINK meat!" says Gamepro.

"What the fuck?" says Nintendo Power.

It looks like Atari is making good on its "casual-centric" attitude. I'm hoping that's not completely the case, as they still own all the rights to the Dungeons and Dragons games.

For a novice, for a person who doesn't know anything about gaming, Ham surely is a fantastic introduction.

What kind of pre-order bonus are we talking about for Ham?

This metaphor doesn't work, because ham, especially those smaller ham cubes, are great with salad. Just like garbanzo beans. And cheese. And bacon bits. And chicken. And dressing. Nice try, though. :(

I made myself hungry...
