Christmas is inching closer – as is the time I can’t put off starting shopping any more – so you may be on the look out for a gift to buy a younger relative. And everyone knows that younger relatives are the only people who play platform games (Which I say to bait my girlfriend who’s been playing Super Mario Galaxy all morning). So the 280-or-so Mb demo of Cid The Dummy may seem the sort of thing to check out as a possible gift. Alas, the game isn’t out until the end of January. You’ll have to just buy them an inappropriately violent videogame. The only footage I can find is from – gasp! – 2006 and for the PSP. It’s beneath the cut…

The original video is here. For some reason embedded Gamespot videos don’t like RPS.

When an adult plays a platformer it becomes an “action adventure”. Just look at Prince of Persia, Tomb Raider, uncharted, Mirror’s Edge and so on.

Pretty insightfull post. Never thought that it was this uncomplicated after all. I have spent a good deal of my time looking for someone to explain this topic clearly and you’re the only person that ever did that. Thanks a lot! Keep it up!
