Eidos have announced a dark, cartoony action RPG complete with crazy monster types and Wii-filled motion action.

  • Create/modify different monsters.
  • Play as one of three scientists: Professor Fuesless, mechanical expert; Dr Sandabar, biology specialist, or; Dr Tchesombra, chemistry expert.
  • Writing by comic writer, Adam Beechen
  • Dark, cartoony artwork.
  • Contains a range of mini-games.
  • June 2008 ETA.

    Sounds pretty darn swish. Hopefully will look equally good in motion!

    Having seen the screens, I have to say it's nice to see a third party actually putting effort into a new IP on Wii. This kind of thing has been all too rare so far.

    Sounds good. Hope it doesn't bomb/underperform like Spectrobes though, otherwise people won't wanna contend Pok
