More Information
Details: Sony's Blasto is the latest in a long line of games that attempt to distill the best that the 2D platform games of the past had to offer into 3D. With large, roaming environments that stream from the disc, Blasto does this in a different way than titles such as Super Mario 64, Tomb Raider, Crash Bandicoot, and Pitfall 3D, and the originality is certainly nice. The only problem is that it just doesn't make the leap into 3D as well as it could have. Well all right, that's not the only problem. To take a few steps backward, the game is set in a universe obviously inspired largely by Warner Bros.' Marvin the Martian cartoons. It's full of walkways that float inexplicably, suspended in space, machinery complete with "Don't touch this button!" buttons, and all the other signature gags and pratfalls, and it is inhabited by spindly aliens and top-heavy monsters the likes of whom could very well be related to Marvin and his friends.
