WALL-E Preview at CheatCC - WALL-E Wants to Win

CheatCC writes: "The movie's plot actually lends itself pretty easily to a video game, and revolves around the lonely robot WALL-E. Poor WALL-E has been given the task of cleaning up after humanity's earthy messes after they have all left the planet. He is the last "living" being on the planet, and in the time that WALL-E has been operational, he has developed emotions and feels very lonely. However, all that changes when a cute but deadly robot named EVE appears. An interstellar adventure ensues, and you can bet that there's a whole bunch of Disney Pixar magic injected into this story at every turn."

I could care less about this game. But I am going to see the movie. Finding Nemo was one hell of a movie, and this look to be very entertaining to me :)

spectyre6513d ago

Clearly the best Pixar movie was The Incredibles.
Movie games always suck. That is how I will treat this game until some one proves differently.

Solid line up.

I knew TDU SC eventually come on PS Plus. Glad I cancelled preorder for Astro or instead.
I heard TDU SC was a mess at launch. Did it improve? I'm going to give it a try

This is unrelated to the actual post, but can anyone tell me what happened to this site? It used to be the best place to get news, but now it seems like barely any big news comes through, there's little discussion, and it seems to be dying overall. I know there was awhile where I couldn't access the site, but that's been taken care of for a long time. What happened?

Nyxus8d ago

There are a lot of technical issues and it doesn't seem there are many people left who approve stories, so they take a long time to get approved, if they get approved at all.

Eonjay7d ago

Money. It was sold to someone who wanted to maximize the ad revenue while investing nothing into the actual site. Money killed it.

lodossrage7d ago (Edited 7d ago )

I'll add to what Nyxus and Eonjay said

Another reason is trolls are allowed to run rampant. So the few times discussions might happen, they get derailed fast.
There's also the fact that they're more strict on what gets approved now compared to what they were back in the day.

Site’s been slowly turning to garbage over the past 5 years. It’s currently almost unusable. Full of utter shit adverts covering everything. You cant even access your profile notifications and it’s been like that for what must be over a year now. It really has become an amateur shit show here.

maximusprime_7d ago

True, I tried opening "my submission" and it opened someone else's list of submissions...

Chocoburger7d ago

An endless amount of rude trolls, along with terrible and inconsistent moderation. I once got banned for saying S***, but then there are other people who can drop F-bombs and not get banned. Mods also punish the wrong people often, just stupidity all around. I stopped submitting stories and I rarely comment these days due to the lack of proper moderation.

DEKUX127d ago

Always thought this was just a Sony pony troll site lol. But it used to be nuts. I used to check this site every day same as siliconera. I do still check here and there but yeah ain’t what it used to be

Love the article description!

Also someone had the foresight to put Neva on there... and monter hunter Stories. Solid additions all around.

MrBaskerville7d ago

They had a strong classic library last year, I don't hope they plan to double down on disney releases again this year, like they've done before.

Disney/Pixar’s Wall*E - A Refreshing Use of a License

Licensed games are all rubbish, right? Well, THQ's take on Disney/Pixar’s Wall*E would like to argue that point.

gamerz948d ago

Took me a min to figure out this is a review of a 2008 game. I love Wall*E and this looks interesting so added it to my Steam wishlist. Thanks!

A Look Back at Disney Games on PlayStation Handhelds

VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "There are few brands out there that have anything like the appeal and recognition of Disney. Thanks to decades of beautiful and critically acclaimed animated films, the company is a household name that has expanded beyond just movies to include a variety of other ventures, including videogames. Disney has also grown its lineup considerably in recent years by acquiring Marvel, Pixar, and Star Wars (although for the purposes of this article, I’ll only be covering Disney/Pixar output).

Thanks to their broad audience, Disney games usually show up on every viable platform out there, meaning that despite the brand’s affinity with Nintendo’s younger-skewing audience, both the PSP and Vita received a number of titles throughout their lives. Some of this was through Disney's own developer/publisher (Disney Interactive Studios), but the firm also licensed out its IPs for other companies to try their hand at – with somewhat mixed results."
