No little silver guy in new Zoids game
After the recent success of LEGO-themed games (and with LEGO Indy and LEGO Batman just around the corner) I couldn’t help but get slightly excited about hearing of an upcoming ZOIDS game (For XBox360 no less)!
Imagine it! Goodie blue ZOIDS marching against the unstoppable forces of the evil red ZOIDS with the battery powered really big and impressive ones that your mates owned (and you were really jealous of because you only had the slightly smaller wind up versions) leading the charge. Assembling new ZOIDS from the wreckage on the battlefield as you go, little gold and silver plastic people at the helm… crickey, it’d be completely awesome.
Picture the crushing disappointment as I discover that not only was the amazingly simple plot mechanic of good blue ZOIDS vs. evil red ZOIDS a feature of the European toys only, there’s been a whole new range of ZOIDS in the meantime and it’s all gone a bit gung-ho we’re trying to be serious-ey and therefore, a bit rubbish.
It’s all “The Guylos Empire” (rubbish name) versus “The Republic of Helic” (also rubbish) now.

This is GORE, The Lord Protector of the Blue ZOIDS. He’s not in the new game. Instead we have the likes of…

…D-Bison of the Helic Republic (rubbish name). Look, it’s all weathered and rusty like it’s an actual machine or something instead of a little plastic toy. Boo!
