I agree!!! What is wrong with Activision? Are they trying to ruin every franchise or license that they get a hold of (like COD5 with Treyarch).

Sadly, the rate of HDTV related "wii'ner dangle" damage claims will be boosted if this truly takes on the Wii Remote+Nunchuck control scheme it's implying...

Considering that TOMB RAIDER and UNCHARTED pretty much left PITFALL in the dust(Save for Bruce Campbell, there's no reason to even look in its direction; MAYAN ADVENTURES included)... they're just tarnishing a classic game's legacy by doing this.

Then you get manure, which is used to fertilise crops and crops are good.

This is just like.. well, fish shit, cos thats usless. Its dissolved in the ocean and you can't grow anything with it.

You can if you play uncharted it's the closest thing you'll probably get to pitfall unless you want to play this POS.

I like how every single game that's released for the Wii is advertised as having "innovative controls"- even though very few of them are actually innovative... especially because that's become the norm w/ third party Wii games...

Yup, the plural of shaman is "shamen".

Shaman is not derived from the word "man" and as such the plural is not shamen but rather shamans.

I'm a bonified Nintendo fanboy, yet I'm very compelled to crack open the age-old cliche of "that looks wii-tarded."

Yes, I said it. And now I shall go back to playing GTA4 and Mario Kart Wii. Good day.

Why's everyone being so down on this game? Pitfall: The Lost Expedition (this game's predeccessor) was a truly fun and vastly underrated adventure platformer, and I hope the same for The Big Adventure.

I'd be more excited for this if, just for once, they could make a game without a goofy toon look for the Wii.

Just once, Activision...just...once...

I read your comment, then out of my periph I saw LeChuck and was hoping for a "what's wrong with goofy toons?" response. I am saddened. :-(

So is this a port of Lost Expedition or a new game built on the same engine?

I'm hoping Lost Winds embarrasses a lot of these developers.

It probably won't because they don't seem to have any shame, but still...

It's official: just like pink is the new black, Activision is the new EA. Yeah. I just implied that Activision is pink and gay. Sue me.

I fully agree with Shadow El -- I loved "Lost Expedition." I played it on Gamecube, and had a wonderful summer with it. The only problem with the game was the confusing layout of the worlds (and that awful, awful hard part where you were turned into a scorpion. But I have to ask as well -- is this new Wii game merely a port, or is completely brand new? Sounds from the description to be exactly the same as "Expedition", and Edge of Reality did develop that one. By the way, I also completed "Lost Expedition" for GBA -- the part where Harry was on a pogo stick is literally the hardest level I have ever played on a video game. I had a gaming-expert friend of mine complete it for me, and I treated him to TGIF as payment...

Wow, Pitfall Harry's character design is worse than the new Rick from the yet to be released Splatterhouse. I predict that game will end up going almost straight into a 9.99 bin a your local wholesale club, approx 1 month after its release date.
