In Loons, there's more to being a big-shot movie star than just memorizing lines--there's backstabbing, sabotage, and showing off.

In Loons, there's more to being a big-shot movie star than just memorizing lines--there's backstabbing, sabotage, and showing off. See what puts the tarnish in Tinseltown as four Looney Tunes characters turn screen tests into big-budget melees. You must ruin the competition with props, gags, and gizmos throughout 15 movie sets and seven minigames. Expand

    A few control problems prevent the game from being as fun as we'd like and the fighting engine is repetitive and too simple (even for kids). [Dec 2002, p.102]
  2. Those interested in recreating some Looney Tune action should definitely look into picking this title up, especially with some of the extras that are included on the disc (classic clips, artwork, etc.) that are unlocked as the game progresses.
  3. 60
    A worthy distraction in small doses.
  4. 46
    Too simple, too bland, and too boring to be recommended.
  5. The combat is overly simplistic, the cel-shaded presentation is unattractive and unrefined, and the game is brimming with collision-detection and physics bugs.
  6. The game ultimately fails due to flawed and shallow gameplay.
  7. Just too basic to allow for any long-term appeal.

It's not a game of the year contender by any stretch of the imagination, but it is a fun little Power Stone clone. I enjoyed my time with it, which admittedly hasn't been a whole lot. Wish it had more characters. Wish it controlled a little better. But it's good fun for a short while. Expand

    Totally pointless game. It is more entertaining running naked backwards through a corn field.
