What's harder? (A) Producing a popular cartoon show for nearly
30 years about a trio of fat-faced high-pitched maladjusted chipmunks and their three whiny rodent girlfriends or (B) Producing a single good video game about them? Apparently, the latter was too much to ask for. Instead of drawing on three decades of creative material, developer Brash Entertainment crapped out an epic turd that features inane musical mini-games where the vermin feign instrument playing while you preoccupy yourself with pushing buttons and trying not to vomit on yourself. (Why penis why?!!)
We know the story too well though: The developer surely had zero budget to make the game, the movie industry is absolutely to blame for the debauchery that's already overdue to go straight to DVD, and surely rushing the game team to bang out anything that resembles squirrels mating to music for a marketing blitz on chilluns to sell this crapola. My only hope is that they spared the production team by leaving out the rolling credits in the ending so they could not be tracked down and killed by people that make the mistake of purchasing this.
This all but reminds me of how good games like Duck Tales were on the NES. Look for those on the Virtual Console and save your money lest you enjoy internal bleeding.

Dicks.
@Krayven at least this video (not in the mood to look for others)this feels more like a rip off of Samba De Amigo its missing the mid selection but it really looks like it flows the same.
fuck thats horrible...
my ears are literally in pain
FUCK.
I would try to give a game like this the benefit of the doubt if I had to, but it looks like someone missed a class of game design aesthetics.
Gaming has developed. Gaming licenses about movies not so.
Nope.
According to the Kid Confidence blog, even parents and little children are like wtf at the release of this game. The article goes on to talk about how the game is played and such too.
That has to be the worst rhythm game ever conceived.
Another thing: Does it just jump from the Wii Menu to the game, using the Disc channel as a title screen? Or is that video just edited to spare us a little bit of pain?
They have awesome ideas, stuff and games, but then they do shit like this...
DO NOT FREAKING WANT. D:<
