This would be the thread where, those of you who have this wonderful game, can post your high scores and generally comment on the game.

I've been acting uncharacteristically perfectionistic lately and I've just been going through the first few missions trying to get an S rating. For the life of me, I cannot manage to get anything higher than a C on the third mission and a B on the fourth. The levels where you can't break anything are really tedious and they take a lot of patience. When I first jumped into the fourth mission I had been used to just tossing things carelessly around the room in search of my quarry and it didn't go over so well when I tried it.

I'd give it at least a 4/5 from what I've played so far.

It's good, but it could be better.

Maybe it's just my Wii, but most games seem to be sort of finnicky about "key-turning" the remote. For instance, the gloved hand jumps all over the screen if I try and rotate it. Unfortunately, this sort of thing tends to play into Elebits puzzles semi-frequently. I wasted half of my time on one mission trying to turn a coffee pot properly to put it in a coffee-maker. It's also difficult to keep drawers and doors open, and after you throw enough stuff around the levels become very cramped. It's still a fairly fun game, though.

How many missions have you got an S rating in so far?

I fought the first boss and beat it on my first try with seven seconds left!

0. And that boss fight SUCKED. Having to find a tiny, fast-moving, partially invisible thing in waist-high trash was just ridiculous.us

Well, I think the lowest passing grade you can get is a C so I'm going to go back and fight it again to see if I can kill it a little faster.

Gah, the floaty levels are such crap. You touch anything, and it inevitability sets off a chain reaction that breaks something.

I haven't gotten very far because of my desire to get high ratings on each level I pass before I move on but tomorrow I plan on just blasting through as far as I can.

Does anyone else think the cutscenes could have been way better? In comparison to the Elebits Dance in the Extras menu, we got jipped. That and the poor multiplayer option are my only complaints.

The art is really good, but the voice-acting is atrocious. CG cutscenes would have been nice but are hardly necessary. I wonder why the Elebits Dance isn't the game's intro?

Also, I sent out a level to Taco and ZD. Tell me watcha think.
