I some times watch cartoons, and I loved the Animaniacs show. (I still have that Pinky & the Brain song memorized)
But when I heard that ASC was going to mix Animaniacs with a BOWLING game???
And a great bowling game Ten Pin Alley, Which is one of the best Bowling games for the Playstation. I thought that this is going to be the dumbest thing I ever seen.
Well I was mostly right.
This version is basically the same game as the first Ten Pin, but with Animaniac characters and a wacky alley. but other then that, it's the same game.
The Characters are not well animated at all. They move vary stiff and show no facial movement at all.
And remember in the first Ten Pin and the weird way you can screw up?
I was expecting some wild screw up actions, But most of them are vary dull. And they cut out the taunts, WHY?????
I loved saying "YOU SUCK!" to my opponent as he misses his pins. I thought You could yell funny Yakko jokes or something.
There are some fun 3D Animanics clips in Tournament mode, but nothing really great. The characters you can play are Yakko, Wakko, Dot, Brain, Nurse, Mindy, Dr. Scrachansniff, Ralph and CEO Plotz. But where's one of my favorites Pinky!
He's not even with Brain in his Bowling suit? Narf!
Overall If you want play a really fun Bowing game, Go find the original Ten Pen Alley and leave this one on the drawing board.
