Quantcast



I'm not entirely sure what I've seen here, but I kind of want it. A game where RPG-like battles involve such special moves as knocking an ice cream out of someone's hand or playing loud music at your enemies kind of wins, as far as I'm concerned. The fact that giggling cylindrical monstrosities are the stars of the show makes it even better.

Everyone over at Gametrailers seems to have written Zubo off as just another crap EA game, but it looks somewhat inventive and fun to me. We won't know for sure until there's more than this E3 trailer to go by.

It looks alright.

It has potential to be fun.

it looks like some kind of catoony game that slowly drives you into madness, wich I kind of like.
I just wonder if you can make your own main character.

I agree with nebones, it has the potential, but I don't know if the developers will follow through on it...>.>

We'll see, I guess.

I think attack are timed with rhythmic music kinda like Elite Beat Agents paired with fighting. Looks like it will be fun.

I really wish this was for XBLA or something. Looks pretty cool.

This game looks awesome. The guys at 1up have described it as an RPG with Elite Beat Agents-style combat, which sounds incredible.

Seems to be a game about bullying.

I hope I can steal candy from the enemy before bashing their face in.

@ lv54spacemonkey;

And how do you know? You played an early version of it? Or are you EA PR? O_o

The art style is intersting. Other then that we'll have to wait and see about it. It could easily go either way depending on what is done. I won't be getting too hopeful over it but if it's great that would be a nice surprise.
