No, the first boss is needlessly tough.

If you bring your Wii/game back for Christmas someone can beat him for you so that you can continue to play the game.

Which is probably indicative of a flaw in the game design.; December 13, 2007 at 10:49 AM

_J_ said...: Let's say you are playing Mario Kart and after each tier you have to beat a diffult boss in a race.

I would say that is a sensible gatekeeper system.

Now let's say you are playing Mario Kart and after some tiers you have to beat a very difficult boss in, say, an agriculture sim wherein you used your car to...collect vegetables and if you collected special vegetables you could let loose a herd of gophers into your opponent's field.

I would say that is AWESOME but in no way coherent with the rest of the game. Since it is not coherent I would say it is a flaw.

But, man, I would totally play that game.

Because, see, you have harvested a great number of carrots. So the gophers, hungry as they are, must go to the opponent's field to get carrots.; December 13, 2007 at 4:43 PM
