Gametrailers recently gave Boom Blox Bash Party a 8.5 Which is the exact score they gave the orginal.
This tells that the game didn't improve or downgrade

Expected :D The game looks like a big improvement over the first game :)

Already posted.

Dang I didn't see it. When was it posted mod night. Well let's act like this is the first one

It doesn't, really. Scores only go so far. They say that it's definitely a better game, just that it doesn't do much new that the last one didn't.

usually if a sequel gets the same score as the original game it's a better version of the original... but if the sequel provides ZERO new content (only new name/story) reviewers will usually give it a lesser scrore than what the original got even though they might be the same.

they may say that they review games each on it's own but they DO compare sequels, i remember god of war 2 was compared to GoW1, and even though GoW2 was better (more waepons, better graphics... etc) they gave it a worse score because they though it was too similar to the original... if it was the same as the original it would have gotten an even worse score.

so... that basically that means that if you're gonna get one or the other, you're better off getting the sequel

Then please post to it.  I looked 5 pages back and didn't see the other thread.

Also, glad to hear it.  Boom Blox was a great game and I'm sure this one will be great too!

Yeah, it just has unlimited content. No big deal. It's only innovation when Media Molecule does it, I guess. :P

lol, yeah :P

I'm seriously thinking of getting this. I mean, if you like it, the content will keep you playing for ages. And it looks fun :)
