IGN's review of Scrapland is up. For those of you not familiar with it, take the art style a nd a few gameplay tidbits from Beyond Good and Evil, mix well with a slightly less open-ended but still incredibly cool GTA-ish world (with 3 dimensions of traffic to play in!), and add a dash of Messiah. Oh, and you can customize your ships. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
I tried the demo a while back and it was pretty sweet. Nice to see a game like this on the PC; it's a genre kinda console-dominated. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> I was probably going to end up getting it anyway, but this review just pushes me towards it even more. Hooray another game I'll never have time to play! <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
