By tilting the phone, you have to guide it through hills and valleys, even tunnels. LocoRoco follows the adventure of a blob-like creature. It's great fun and you can play in tournaments with your friends. Choose your position, direction and then swing with your hand and watch what happens. The Sony Ericsson Yari comes with two motion based games preinstalled – Bowling and LocoRoco.īowling is a small but fantastic game using the motion sensor. We’ve reviewed these games before, so we’ll skip them and get straight to the news. Sure, there are the typical D-pad controlled games like FIFA 10, Guitar Rock Tour, Bubble Town, NitroStreet Racing, and Quadrapop. The gaming keys and the Game Carousel are just a part of it. The Sony Ericsson Yari is not strictly a gamer’s phone but it puts a fresh new spin on mobile gaming. My kids love it though, so if you’re looking for something neat to play with your spawnlings, then look no further.Games – take that Project Natal for Xbox 360 and Nintendo Wii I still recommend trying it, but I’m not as in love with LocoRoco Remastered as I was with its original version. Removing the “mobile gaming” aspect of the original is definitely detrimental to the overall experience.
That absolutely doesn’t mean you shouldn’t check out LocoRoco Remastered, especially considering its cheap-as-chips asking price, but I do feel somewhat bad for those experiencing it for the first time on PS4. Gameplay is, to be frank, pretty monotonous, and the drip-feed of new abilities and fresh level design mechanics are nowhere to be seen in a game this old.
LOCOROCO MOBILE TV
Once you’re sitting down to play the game in front of a TV for an extended period of time, the original’s charm begins to wear off.
The original game was perfect for mobile gaming in that the levels were designed as bite-sized distractions to kill a few minutes on a commute or the like. There’s no denying the Remastered version looks gorgeous colours are striking and the loading times mean you can hop into a quick game in a matter of seconds. The whole objective is to get at least one LocoRoco to the end of the level, but you’ll be able to pat yourself on the back if you can find all nineteen berries and make it home with 20 LocoRocos. Navigation works by tilting the levels using the shoulder L1 and R1 buttons on your controller, which makes your LocoRocos roll either left or right. You can split your engorged, amorphous LocoRoco into its individual LocoRocos any time you want to, and in certain places you have to in order to navigate smaller areas, but you always run the risk of losing a few of them through enemies, obstacles, or crummy platforming skills. The more berries you eat, the bigger your LocoRoco becomes and the more difficult it gets to control. There are also a handful of inconsequential mini-games, and a bunch of parts to unlock to decorate and design your LocoRoco house in the main title screen.Īs you find berries in each level, you gain another LocoRoco, which will merge into your existing LocoRoco. The LocoRocos have to navigate five game worlds of eight levels each, safely multiply themselves (by eating red berries), and find their missing Mui Mui friends. In LocoRoco Remastered, as in the original, you guide happy, singing little colourful blobs as they try to restore peace to the world after a dastardly Moja attack.
LOCOROCO MOBILE FULL
Needless to say I was very interested to see how the original transferred onto larger TV screens with up-scaled resolutions and a full console controller. The timing was pretty spot-on considering I was replaying the original. I’d actually had no idea Sony was remastering the game for PlayStation 4. I reckon that’s pretty much all you need to know about LocoRoco: the game was enough to make me revive my PSP.
LOCOROCO MOBILE PSP
It was enough to make me find and dust off my PSP to my surprise the thing still worked despite having been shoved in the back of a cupboard for the last 10 years. Then a weird thing happened: I found my original copy of LocoRoco about three weeks ago. My PSP was pretty much dead to me after that. I played the heck out of it as I commuted my sorry self between dreary, soul-destroying jobs during my clichéd gap year in London.
LOCOROCO MOBILE PORTABLE
It wasn’t yet another portable version of an already popular console franchise, and as a result it earned somewhat of a cult fan base in a very short amount of time. At the time it was something so completely different and original for Sony’s mobile platform.
