Not Far From It Now

Wall.E is one of the latest Xbox 360 video game that roll of the production following Hollywood style..."that is as soon as possible" We have seen countless titles that follow this format and like most, they suffer from too short a development cycle. Unlike "Tomb Raider", most movie inspired video game don't fare too well in the gaming industries. Wall.E is no exception.

Basically the video game follow the same storyline as the movie. Earth is polluted and needs to be cleaned up. The tasks is assigned to robots called Waste Allocation Load Lifer Earth-Class..."Wall.E". after seven hundred years had passed, the only two things that remain on earth is one Wall.E unit and a cockroach. One day an EVE or Extra - Terrestrial Vegetation Evaluator descend on earth and turn Wall.E world upside down. At this part, the player game play will decide the outcome of the game. The Xbox 360 version of the video game is simple enough. Players go around hunting and collecting objects solve simple puzzles etc. The game also allow you to switch between two character that is Wall.E and EVE. Game control are kids friendly. I would say easy to understand and catch on. The basic controls movement apply to both Wall.E and EVE. As mention earlier, from the time frame of the movies release to that of the game release, there are bound to be "bugs" in the game due to the short development cycle.

Players will find that the video game lack smoothness in virtually every aspect. You will find "invisible walls" when your character for no reason bump into "something." Sometimes you will have complete control of the camera and sometime apparently not. If you seen the movie first then play the video game...You be sorely disappointed. The graphics are not even close to that you find in the movies.. I mean, it's sad to find as a gaming guy...you see that the game developer don't take advantage of the expansive of the Next Gen Gaming console like the Xbox 360.

Russia's first such deployment in the Caribbean since the Cold War is timed to coincide with President Dmitry Medvedev's visit to Venezuela, the first ever by a Russian president.
