How the Elf (movie game) stole Christmas
At times, I feel bad for people who decide to enter the video game design/development field. They come with their background in graphic design, programming, audio engineering, writing, etc. and have high hopes of creating something that they will enjoy making, a labor of love if you will. I doubt they believe they will get stuck creating crummy licensed tie-ins hoping only to cash in on the popularity of a movie. Unfortunately, that's exactly what this game is. While I do feel bad for them being tasked to make this (hey, I'm sure they have bills to pay and families to feed), I will display no such sympathy in their vile product.
Elf, as you most likely know by now considering it's 2013, is a Christmas movie starring Will Ferrell as Buddy, a human raised by Santa's elves. Buddy learns he's a human and goes to New York City to find his real dad. Christmas magic happens, Scrooges become filled with Christmas Spirit™, Buddy finds love, Christmas is saved, happy endings all around. Despite my biting sarcasm in that description, I actually love Elf. It's probably one of my favorite Christmas movies. It's also a comedy that in no way suits itself for a video game, a fact that clearly shows itself in this game. If you didn't know anything about the movie, don't expect to learn much about it from this game. Outside a few blurry screenshots taken directly from the movie and a few loose (I emphasis the term "loose" here) references to the movie plot, there is little connecting game to movie.
You start the game wandering throughout the north pole, dodging polar bears, jumping over pits, and collecting candy. This is from the part of the movie that...umm, no, wait, there is no part in the movie where this happens. In any case, you do this for the first few levels. In an already terrible game, these platforming stages are the worst part and the most plentiful. T... Read the rest of this Review
