Review: Noby Noby Boy

nobyboy

So last night, I stumbled home somewhat drunk and full of Mexican food. I plopped down on the couch and started smoking a cigarette. I decided to cure my temporary boredom, I’d spend the $5 on Noby Noby Boy for the PS3. I downloaded it and 20 minutes later, fired the game up.

30 minutes later all I could say was “What the fuck?” This is not a game. This is a program that was nearly impossible to describe and was clearly designed while under the influence of narcotics. You take this creature that looks like a multi-colored penis with legs and wrap it around shit. You can eat stuff and poop it out. That’s about all I could figure out after 30 minutes of gameplay. I managed to get to the second level (I think) and eventually shut the game off and went to bed.

Is Noby Noby Boy worth the $5? I hate to say it, but if you’re not drunk or fucked up on drugs, I doubt it. The game makes little to no sense but for some reason, it’s surprisingly playable. I suggest splitting the $5 with a friend and giving it a whirl.

Noby Noby Boy

Noby Noby Boy is the latest upcoming title from Katamari Damacy creator Keita Takahashi. It’ll be hitting the Playstation Network in early 2009 and most of us will buy it. Why? You’ll be stretching a colorful rainbow penis around in 3-D space for hours. Twirl it around, make it into a pretzel, whatever. Compete against people online to see who can stretch their penis the longest. Something like that. Either way, 1UP has a hands on preview you’ll want to read about for a better understanding.
