Ever heard of the Crash Test Dummies? Not the band, mind you, as memorable as they are. We're talking about some really old car commercials that attempted to stick some personality and human attributes into a pack of plastic dummies that got demolished in crash tests. This new PSP game is sort of like that --
CID the Dummy tells the story of a crash test dummy who gets a heart and goes off to find the lost dummy daughter of his creator.
Silent Hill without people or scary stuff, really.
The game is a platformer with highly interactive environments ... but you've got a bazooka armed with different flavors of pain: freeze, flame, and rubber shots to be specific. Aside from the platforming and shooting, you do get plenty of Crash Test levels where you do what dummies do: get run into a wall at high speeds. We won't pass judgment on this one until we get a look at the game itself -- second quarter of 2008.
