    OF course it will end up sucking. It will be hilariously bad, just like the original. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    wish I knew why people linked to gamespot for this stuff... I find the ones on gametrailers stream better and look higher quality without needing a membership =3

    Is there any possibility of the game actually being good as a game, and not as a p.o.s we can laugh at?

    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.

    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.

    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.

    If Zeus was so hot, then why didn't <b>he</b> save his own daughter? Then we wouldn't have this travesty of a game.

    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-->

    My roommate does the best impression of the "WISE FROM YO GWAVE" voice EVAR.

    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.

    I actually quite enjoyed the original Altered Beast. Complex? Certainly not, but neither was anything for the time. And if this one's well done, it should be a LOT of fun.

    Oh, and the dragon morph rocks.

    That said, stupid PS2-exclusive. Why do developers continue to code games for that POS?
