Muppet Week Day 6: A Brief History of Muppet Video Games


The Muppets are not well know for quality video games. But I thought it would be cool to take a look at some of them anyway. Most of these I don't own but I'll still write about them just because I can! You can see them after the break:

Disney's Extreme Skate Adventure Review

Disney's Extreme Skate Adventure was a humorous game but for the the wrong reasons. Before I get to that lets talk about the game. It was onthe Playstation 2 and the Gameboy Advance. The game used the same gameplay engine as the Tony Hawk games at the time. Back when Tony Hawk games were good. The game play has some variety giving you the ability to pull off ridiculous tricks, like jumping of a lighthouse.The game is mostly fun but the blatand product placement reaches the point of being disgusting. One mission you have to help some guy get a ringtone for his Nokia phone. In another mission you have to deliver food for Mcdonalds. In the end the game it self is fun to play but you feel like you just played an advertisement.

Disney's Stitch: Experiment 626 Review

Stitch: Experiment 626 for the PlayStation 2 was an interesting game. The gameplay was okay, yet sometimes due to the camera it could become frustrating. The graphics where good but it did not really capture the style of Lilo and Stitch. The game was developed by High Voltage Software. They have made many licensed games like Dora the Explorer and a lot of other not so great games like that. But you may know them for developing the first person shooters The Conduit and The Conduit 2. Though at many times this game was somewhat enjoyable due to the fact that that it is still Stitch. The voice acting also added a nice touch to the game. There were many big environments in the game and it constantly changed from being extremely linear to more open, and in my opinion much more confusing. In the end if you can find this game for a good, very low, price I would recommend you pick it up.

Walt Disney World Quest: Magical Racing Tour Review

Dreamcast Cover

 The Walt Disney World Quest: Magical Racing Tour (mouthful of a name) was a fun game and graphically impressive for its time. It was available on both Sony Playstation [ps1] and Sega Dreamcast. There was also a 2d handheld version for the Gameboy Color. though the game in many ways was just another Mario Kart rip off. it had its own special features that made it unique. the main reason being the tracks.
Game Boy Color version was not a looker
      The player would race through various attractions to fix some fireworks machine. I could care less about the story in this game, today for me it is somewhat generic cookie cutter type story.
