Skateboarding god versus Cthulhu in Scribblenauts

We also learn what happens when a villain sees a full moon: he transforms into a werewolf. Obviously. It's worth noting that none of these things helped get the Starite out of a tree, which was the actual objective of the level. That's going to be the biggest challenge in Scribblenauts: actually playing instead of just screwing around.

Day 1 buy! DS GOTY hands down!
BPMOmega [GT,Steam] @ Jun 12th 2009 2:18AM
No, this isn't the GOTY...
This is the GOTF. Game of the Forever.

You had me at Skateboarding god.

This actually answers my biggest questions about this game. 1) Is the Cthulhu in it, and 2) what does it look like?
I had a dream about Scribblenauts. In my dream, I was looking forward to messing around with my amazingly infinite powers to conjure everything but I had to unlock abilities as I played and it took forever and was really boring. It was a terrible nightmare. :(

You mean to tell me that a shotgun toting skateboarding god couldn't just bring down the Starite? I find this quite perplexing... still freakin' awesome though.
Definitely a day one buy

Day one buy for me for sure; can't wait for this awesomeness!

Holy shit. Shotgun God fighting Cthulhu do the death. I laughed my ass off. I am so getting this game.
Jason Statham (Aka Vegeta) @ Jun 11th 2009 4:16PM
Oh I lold so hard when God and Chthulu offed each other. Jesus everytime I see a video of this it never ceases to amaze me.
j.howlett @ Jun 11th 2009 4:18PM

why is god so weak? with a shotgun, he barely beat cthulhu, and the kraken killed him. anyways, this game looks SO sick!
bromb @ Jun 13th 2009 12:38PM
Death killed god in that video (or so they mentioned), but god actually took out the kraken, right? 'cause then they brought in Einstein who ran away from god…
Leroy_Octopus @ Jun 11th 2009 4:30PM
They still need Obama in the game.
ThatPCgameryouhate @ Jun 14th 2009 3:08AM
I'm going to test random actors and actresses to see if their in the game, or maybe I'll build a clone army and take over their world.
Holy Crap I'm excited for this.

I really hope they bring this to WiiWare, or some other home platform. This is truly the kind of madness that you must share, and handheld screens aren't really conductive to that.
thedtrain89 @ Jun 11th 2009 7:04PM
This looks awesome, but some christians may be mad with the result, lol
I'm agnostic/apathetic myself, but God should be almighty. But the genius of this game, if it actually works correctly, will be the infinite possibilities that'll enter people's heads. For example, I already want to know:
1. jesus christ?
2. is god, zeus, allah, ahura mazda, etc. the same?
3. depiction of power of different gods/religious leaders: buddha? moses?
4. god vs. devil/satan
5. would they depict Muhammad?
day 1

Just because God gets his ass kicked by Cthulhu doesn't mean he's not almighty.
Cthulhu is just almightier.
SoshiKitai @ Jun 12th 2009 8:17PM
And besides, they didn't give God a Holy Shotgun.
Everyone knows Holy Shotguns are better.
Nmaster @ Jun 17th 2009 6:16PM
Giving God a shotgun seems like a nerf...

PH'NGLUI MGLW'NAFH CTHULHU R'LYEH WGAH'NAGL FHTAGN!
I'm sold
Azbulldog @ Jun 11th 2009 9:14PM
I'd use Longcat.
Blue_Falcon @ Jun 11th 2009 8:42PM
WHERE IS YOUR SKATEBOARD NOW?
Wait, I think I did it wrong.
elsng @ Jun 11th 2009 10:34PM
DAY ONE BUY.
NForever @ Jun 11th 2009 10:47PM
Hmmm... I wonder what happens when you try to conjure up a starite.
Craig M @ Jun 12th 2009 2:45AM
Thats a good question...
Craig M @ Jun 12th 2009 2:46AM
This game looks awesome. Would be cool to have it on another platform - but I may just have to find a used DS and get this game when it comes out.
bongoes @ Jun 12th 2009 3:19PM
I have no idea what a Cthulhu is but that was awesome.
z_fallen @ Jun 13th 2009 5:53AM
Holy hand grenade anyone?
megapenguinx @ Jun 22nd 2009 12:56PM
I was thinking the same thing

Ph'nglui mglw'nafh C'thulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn.
borgl @ Jun 13th 2009 1:45PM
The mechanics look positively wonderful, but I'm just a little concerned that it'll make gameplay too easy… Hopefully they were able to make some genuinely challenging levels for when summoning Cthulu gets old…
Kree @ Jun 27th 2009 8:32AM
The mechanic is that once you finish a level, you can't reuse the same stuff again in later levels, and hence forces you to get creative to solve problems

Reminds me of Kung-fu Action Jesus...
