Interpol reluctantly brings the 'I, Spy' genre to PS3

by Andrew Yoon { Sep 10th 2009 at 7:00PM }

TikGames is bringing one of its first XBLA games to PlayStation Network next week -- and we're not entirely sure why. Interpol: The Trail of Dr. Chaos is a game where you must find things in pictures. Seriously, that's it. While this may be fun for casual gamers and children, we find it unlikely that PS3's hardcore gamer community will find it particularly engaging. The critics certainly didn't, giving it a Metacritic score of 45.

Let's hope the PS3 version won't cost the same as the Xbox 360 version: $10. But to save the most money, take this advice from Joystiq's Richard Mitchell in this old XBLA in Brief video: "you could buy a copy of Highlights and do the exact same thing."

It DOES cost $10. Well, $9.99.

i would have to say this is probably the biggest flaming pile of horseshit i've seen for 9.99 in my life.

Bullshit.

You can get theses games to play online FOR FREE!!!

I just hope people do NOT buy these types of games on XBLA/PSN, so we dont get any more.

If you DO buy it. Are you stupid? Do you smell of melon or something? Are you that soft?

Wow, this game has won the lamest games award.

Congratulations.

I enjoy playing these games with my wife on the Wii/PC and even on the DS when we had one. It's nice to see one coming to PS3 but at the same time $10 is way too steep for a game that can be beaten pretty fast and honestly probably didn't take much to develop. If it was like $5 or less I'd buy this otherwise I'll pass.

It's already out on the European Store for €9.99.

crap!
I'll bet anyone a $20 PSN card that I get stuck buying this game. This shit is exactly the type of thing my wife loves.
Such a waste of HD space.
