Monster Lab

A new title I saw up on IGN called Monster Lab. This is an original fighter for the Wii from the studio who is remaking Street Fighter II Turbo. From the interview IGN holds with Kelly Tainton, the producer, we find the game boasts a meaty single player component filled with plenty of fighting and mini-games with relevancy. The game's main pitch is it's monster creation mode boasting "Millions of different combinations!" On top of that, multi-player and online.

I actually like the dark wacky style seen in the games artwork and game play. Combined with a solid fighting system, this could be a pretty promising game. And what's not to like about mad scientists, assistants, evil minions, and monsters created from zany experiments?

Yet, it looks more or less like a game that will go under every one's radar. Not the first time it's happened, definitely won't be the last.
