DESCRIPTION:

Taz has escaped from his cage in the Zoo : he is on the run! But Yosemite Sam is chasing him up and puts Taz Wanted' posters everywhere : Taz must destroy them and has much more to do to regain his freedom : rushing, racing, rumbling, breaking, eating, spinning, spitting, gnarling and biting! Taz is back, and he’s got also some hilarious disguises!

GAME FEATURES: - Humour pused to the MAX. Taz’ wild and crazy personality is accurately reproduced (facial animations, exaggerated moves, chaotic behaviour) - Loads of slapstick humour are included in all levels (falling objects, huge explosions, flashing electrocutions…) - varied gaming elements normally found in many more levels are combined together into each of Taz’ 10 levels in 4 huge free-roaming worlds - 12 two-player games - Uses Cell-shading for fantastic cartoony graphic effects!

Auntie Em! It's a Twister! Well, he may spin like a tornado and smell like a landfill, but Taz is a fun-loving Tasmanian devil. Now, Taz and his Looney Toon pals are on the Nintendo GameCube in Taz: Wanted.

Go Wild!

In this 3D platformer, you control the wild and crazy Taz on his quest to escape Yosemite Zoo. You will leave a trail of destruction through more than 15 different levels. At the beginning of each level you will be shown the location of a Wanted Sign that you must destroy. The challenge lies in reaching it.

Yosemite Sam has left a host of hazards behind including trained Taz Catchers. Fortunately, you have several abilities to help you escape. Taz can sneak, spin, burp, and bounce his way out of a jam.

Like any good fugitive, Taz dons wacky disguises to evade capture. After stepping into a phone booth, Taz emerges sporting the threads of a skateboarder, cowboy, monster or other improbable character. The change in costume also snags him a special attack. For example, as a snowboarder, Taz can bat snowballs at bad guys.

Taz can consume sandwiches, bananas and many other power-ups. Many items that Taz can't swallow can be spit back at enemies. Several power-ups, like Hiccup Soda and Mega Hot Chili Peppers, will also help in a pinch.

Graphics

Taz: Wanted has a cartoony, cel-shaded look. The bold outlines and detailed animation make Taz stand out from the duller-looking enemies and objects.

Taz: Wanted features appearances from Looney Tunes favorites, including Wile E. Coyote, Daffy Duck, Tweety Bird and Sylvester. Characters have been converted from drawings to digital form faithfully, complete with a sense of humor and voiced lines when appropriate.

Looney Tunes fans won't be able to resist Taz and all his fun disguises. Despite the bland objectives, the 3D levels in Taz: Wanted are fun to explore. Fortunately some secondary collecting tasks and two-player minigames extend the replayability of this platformer.
