NiGHTS Journey of Dreams

So, who has ever played this series? Not me!!
Well, SEGA finally pulled back it's shutters on the game, and has let out a good bit of information. This game's protagonists-Will Taylor and Helen Cartwright- live in a city that is called Bellbridge. They both have been experiencing nightmares that are coming out of current events their families are experiencing. On Will's side, his Dad who would always take him home from soccer practice, has been transferred to a different place. Making it a very lonely life for Will. On the other hand, Helen is experiencing some of the same type of things with her Mom. She and her mom, who had been very close, slowly spread away from each other, as Helen started to spend more and more time with her friends. Helen began to feel subconscious pangs of guilt every time. But then, it happened. The light at the end of the tunnel to give them hope. More like, a light in their dreams. They begin to be called to a world called, Nightopia, where they meet the mysterious flying jester named NiGHTS, thus began the flying adventures through many themed landscapes, and as the reporters said, a whimsical journey. Soaring through many places, performing acrobatics, all in places that are nicely themed. The only landscape pictured was a desert. The designers said this was to show Will's feelings of solitude. But if you hit many of the TV sets in the area, you could transform it into many things, like say a soccer dome would appear, a type of roller coaster etc. But if you failed to hit the TV sets, the landscape would become dark, and a nightmare would approach. If you are particularly bad at the game, you might have a lot of boss battles in your dreams in Nightopia. It also seems, that the computer controls NiGHTS itself, but you have to perform activities and hit the TV sets with the Wii-mote. (By the way, you know how Sonic and the Secret Rings and this are made by SEGA? Well, I beat the game of SatSR, and there were some parts of the gameplay, that were basically foreshadowing to this game!!) The more I see of this game, the more I want it. So, the more I see of it, the more I so want the game! Well, at least I don't have to wait long. It is scheduled to come out some time in December before Christmas. That pretty much sounds like Super Smash Bros. Brawl, doesn't it? Well I can promise they won't come out on the same day, but they will launch pretty close in time.
Good Luck.
