Even if theWiihas been handed a few sloppy ports from its higher-powered competition, there is still plenty of room for some original, top-shelf quality IPs to make their presence known on the little, white, wonder. One such potential title from THQ comes to mind, and it’s calleddeBlob. No, it’s not a misspelling, or some drunken French guy talking about one of his ex girlfriends.De Blobis in actuality, a title that has the potential to ooze originality from its pores. So what exactly is it?
According to a special preview showing that the guys atIGNenjoyed,de Blobis basically nothing more than a gelatinous extraterrestrial that can take on different colors and paint the world. A world, that is currently devoid of all color at the moment, thanks to the evil (brace yourself for this one) Ink Corp. Asde Blob, it is your duty to bring vibrant color back to the city of Chroma, by rolling around the city allKatamari Damacystyle, and leaving a trail of hues behind you.
THQ is promising between 12-16 giant stages of fun in the final build, and a solid multiplayer experience is already a given. Not bad for what started out as aschool projectbetween 9 Dutch students. Expect to hear more about this game at E3, as even in its infancy — it has fun written all over it. If you want a sneak peek at the free download that started it all, point your PChere. I must warn you, it is addictive.
