Not so much "hot" as "tepid"

It had to happen. PSP has finally got its Wario Ware. Sadly, this is a charmless version of the Nintendo favorite. Following the quick-fire nature of WW, Hot Pixel is broken up into a succession of quick fire minigames. While certain games are temporarily diverting and show some character - drawing a line for a stock market crash while businessmen cry in the background - most are tedious affairs that show little imagination and repeat too often.

The "urban" flavour falls flat and some games are just in bad taste - a peeping tom mission, anyone? The rapid succession of games may be suited for handheld play, but they lack the variety to remain compelling.

You'll love
  • Loads of games
  • WarioWare in comparison
  • Turning off our PSP
You'll hate
  • Most games are tedious
  • Games repeat endlessly
  • Not funny or cool

Totally just bought this game from a used store. orcourse the appeal of Atari intrigues anyone born before 1992. i agree, this game is very So-So and falls flat on the urban spin. Its Suburban-Urban.who wants some goofy white dude poping out of a wall and telling you your cool cuz you peeped his nekkid sister in a window on the 3rd floor. Na, it has appeal as a mini game-o-rama, a few of them made me laugh so far, but im glad i paid 5bucks for it
