Talk:Blast Works: Build, Trade, Destroy

Requested move

 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the . Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section. 

The WP:RM has generated little interest: As the proposer has not yet decided on a name of the several proposed, and as there is no impediment to stop any non-admin moving to any of those names, I am closing this request. Be bold and make the move if you want to and if someone reverts the move then put in another WP:RM request. I am not watching this page so leave me a message on my talk page if you need any further help. --Philip Baird Shearer (talk) 13:31, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

TUMIKI Fighters → ? — The current name violates MOS. I am not sure if it should be move to Tumiki Fighters, or Blast Works: Build, Trade, Destroy (the name of the console version). I personally think we should use the Blast Works name. — TJ   Spyke   11:40, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Support move of some sort as current title is obviously wrong. Google searching (-wikipedia), "Tumiki Fighters" gets 20k hits, "Blast Works: Build, Trade, Destroy" gets 396, but "Blast Works" gets 93,000. So I support Blast Works (common name instead of "full" name). Mcmullen writes (talk) 21:16, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
 * When Majesco first announced the Wii version, they used the name "Blast Works: Build, Fuse & Destroy" (which gets 37K hits). The current name seems to be a recent change, hence why the small amount of Google hits.  TJ   Spyke   01:49, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Support As mentioned, a move would be good regardless of which of the two it is. Is there a definite list of differences between Tumiki and Blast Works? If there is a significant difference then it might be better for the two games to have separate articles, perhaps? --Lijnema (talk) 12:40, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I would be interested in knowing too. I wasn't even aware that it was based on another game until I came here to add the boxart.  TJ   Spyke   00:47, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Blast Works and TUMIKI Fighters are not the same game
Hi, I'm one of the developers working on Blast Works. I've seen the renamed TUMIKI Fighters page, but I need to point out that Blast Works is not the same game as TUMIKI Fighters. Blast Works is based on the concepts used in TUMIKI Fighters, as you can see in the developer diaries here and here. Also, Blast Works includes TUMIKI Fighters as bonus content, as evidenced on the game's fact sheet (I've been trying to locate a more recent fact sheet that would've been released by Majesco).

EU release
It seems that since Eidos showed the game during GDC 08, they will be the one publishing this title in europe.... There also seems to be an impending release date, but since this game(blast works NOT TUMIKI Fighters) is not under as much light as Little Big Planet (virtually the same execpt less options in LBP it seems and different genres (platform vs shooters)) nobody seems to get the release date...

It seems that 27th February is the favoured release date online at the moment: both gameplay.co.uk and Play.com are listing Blast Works with a new box art, a PEGI rating (3+), Eidos as publisher and a release date of 27th Feb. SpinachPuffs (talk) 01:12, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Actually there's a problem in the pipeline to release this game, Eidos claims that it will be released in the first 4 months of 2009 but cannot be clearer about it (for evidence go check the sole place where Eidos even recognize that the game exists ie their French online shop). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.80.239.162 (talk) 15:44, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
