Astro Boy The Video Game PAL Wii-BAHAMUT
Language: English Size: 4.31 GB Genre: Action
Astro Boy follows the same basic story of the film, told through narration and cutscenes, both of which are terrible in their own special ways. The game actually has clips from the film, but they’re all silent. Kristin Bell, who plays Cora in the film, explains the plot during the silent clips, making it feel more like an Entertainment Tonight preview than a cutscene. The in-game cutscenes are hilariously bad. It could arguably be called an homage to early anime to have the character models move their mouths when they’re not actually saying anything, but realistically it’s just lazy programming. Watching Astro flap his gums for three full seconds just to say "No!" is funny in all the wrong ways. Thankfully the cutscenes can be skipped, since the humor quickly wears thin and it becomes annoying and boring.
