Oh, I like it, everybody does, it's just for the wrong reasons.
ditto. Nobody really cares for the gameplay or the graphics, its all about that sound module! :D

It's sad when the game's reviewers don't even look up what a garuda is.
Courtesy of dictionary.com:
garuda
n : supernatural half-man and half-bird vehicle or bearer of Vishnu [syn: Garuda]
hmm, that really doesn't tell us much. Oh well.
And you get to be a merman! Yay sushi!

Yeah I had a heart stopping moment there as well.
Then I realized that <i>that</i> is exactly what made the game so funny and explosively stupid. The game is very... well you know, in presentation, and that makes it all the more funny.
As Pulse said, people like this game because it is just so... so <b>wrong</b>. And yes the sound was hilarious.
It's sad when the game's reviewers don't even look up what a garuda is.

You apparently can't read what the dictionary told you, then.(bolded for your convenience) It was a quick runthrough of what the creatures were going to be, not a discussion on the mythological aspects behind them or anything.

No Picard song??! Then truly it is I who am br0k3n. *Cries.
------------------------
*EDIT* Is <i>that</i> what it said? My god I had the second part all messed up.
You should've been smart and downloaded the full song <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->
ninja edit: In MP3 format!
ninja edit2: It was "Rise from your grave and rescue my daughter!", but the voice only said the (in)famous "wise from yuo gwave!" (I just played the rom to find out :O)

But the mp3 song doesn't have as much of the mindless repitition factor.
Somehow the site just well <i>speaks</i> to me.
Aha! I should have played the rom just to verify. Erm, I hope I still have it.

And while we're on the topic of "rising from the grave", this game should've stayed there. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->
That said, I can't wait for this version; it still looks cool, and if they managed to keep it as simple as the original and still as fun... I'll definitely be buying it.

No, I know what I wrote. I think "half-man half-bird" is a tad more descriptive than just "flying creature", which really doesn't tell you crap about what the thing looks like. gj.
Oh, and the dragon morph rocks.
That said, stupid PS2-exclusive. Why do developers continue to code games for that POS?
<b>Edit:</b> Hot damn, after looking it up, I remember playing this in an arcade! <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Quite so. Well put. I could actually <b>feel</b> the original one turning me crooked before I screamed and cried myself to sleep.
