Bugs: Recent Topics Paging, Uploading Images & Preview (11 Dec 2020)
Recent Topics paging, uploading images and preview bugs require a patch which has not yet been released.
Scribblenauts
At the start you'd go with massively awesome stuff like a Mech or Tank, something all little boys would do.
Then I went a little evil and set a few piranhas on a professor.
What really got me laughing was when I tried to make a knight. I end up wearing almost a full plate of armor, with a girly bracelet wearing rubber boots and fishnet stockings, riding an alpaca trampling a plate. Hilarious.
(full plate, armor, helm, gauntlet, bracer, alpha squad, boots, plate leggings)

I just had to post this, because it's the best impressions I've ever read about any game. It's from the neogaf forums.

But I remember hearing about it on GAF, and so I decided to check it out.
Best game of E3? Without a fucking doubt. Anyone who says otherwise did not play Scribblenauts. Best game of all time? Jesus Christ, I don't know, maybe. It's a game that challenges your IMAGINATION. No other game has ever done that.
So listen to this story. I was in the early levels; I didn't quite have an idea of how ridiculously in-depth the database was. I was summoning things like ladders, glasses of water, rayguns, what have you. But I reached a level with zombie robots, and the zombie robots kept killing me. Rayguns didn't work, a torch didn't work, a pickaxe didn't work. In my frustration, I wrote in "Time Machine". And one popped up. What the fuck? A smile dawned on my face. I hopped in, and the option was given to me to either travel to the past or the future. I chose past. When I hopped out, there were fucking dinosaurs walking around. I clicked one, and realized I could RIDE THEM. So I hopped on a fucking DINOSAUR, traveled back to the present, and stomped the shit out of robot zombies. Did you just read that sentence? Did you really? I FUCKING TRAVELED THROUGH TIME AND JUMPED ON A DINOSAUR AND USED IT TO KILL MOTHERFUCKING ROBOT ZOMBIES. This game is unbelievable. Impossible. There's nothing you can't do.
Holy fucking shit.

The game probably doesn't live up to that kind of hype, but I figure any game that lets you make a time machine deserves at least a look in my opinion. You can also make Cthulhu and God .
Back to lurking.

So I think "what better defense than a steadfast Spartan warrior to turn back those pesky ants...maybe the hippie will think that's cool and not care."
The Spartan warrior drops down, and eats the picnic.
This is a really, really unique game. I've seen some mixed reviews on it, criticizing the control and the fact that some items are essentially the same (type in "biscuit" and you get a loaf of bread), but I've never played anything like it. Fundamentally, it's kind of like CRAYON PHYSICS where you have to figure out how to get a star, but you have to come up with items to do it with. It's not "limitless", and I'm sure that after a full play-through you'll likely see most of the items under one name or another, but the concept is extraordinary. Control, who cares. It's not a platformer.
Besides, a biscuit and a loaf of bread are the same thing to a video game character anyway.

It's not as awesome as I thought it would be... but that's because my imagination is apparently not as extensive as I thought. I keep going back to my old trusty gun and jetpack combo to fix most problems. Oh, if only life were that easy.

Cthulhu versus Shih Tzu was pretty funny too.

Bully: a clone of the bully shows up and fights the bully. It wasn't clear which one won, but the winner acted the same as the original bully.
Taser: didn't work.
Pepper Spray: didn't work.
Sperm Whale: fell on the bully and crushed him.
Moby Dick: some dude shows up, probably a dick named Moby, and the bully beat him up.

On one last night I had to kick a soccer ball into a goal without the goalie getting it. I handcuffed his ass to the goal, that worked.
