Boom Blox Downloadable Levels Feature Wii, IGN, White House
EA’s Boom Blox Bash Party is out and people are already making levels for download featuring famous stuff to wreck.
Crystalline II – A level made by EA’s Boom Blox team. A gold medal if it can be toppled with three slingshot shots.
World Domination – This is a competitive level also made by EA’s developers. The map starts all in brown, but players throw paintballs to claim terrain.
Mission Space – Of course we searched for user-made levels built from Mario or Sonic or other “properties.” We found none, but did find this Star Wars-looking ship.
Independence Day – One baseball throw at the purple block above the White House detonates the structure, just like in the movie.
IGN 4Ever – User Matty Boy made this level, which comes with the instructions: “Blow up IGN.” Casamassina, is that you?
Destroy the Wii! – This one’s user-made. The description says: “Get points for throwing baseballs at your Wii! Just like in real life!”
Unfortunately, if you leave the level alone, the Wii begins to collapse on its own…
… and is left in rubble.
The downloadable levels are free and there already seem to be plenty of them, a significant feature upgrade from the original Boom Blox. Who’s making a Kotaku level?

Can't spell slaughter, without laughter. *grins* ;D
@ShaSt One: Lay off him man, it was an honest mistake.
@ShaSt One: shut up
@ShaSt One: It's supposed to be the other way around, moron.
@Ryan from ElectricGorillas: CAN'T SPELL IGN WITHOUT IGNITE! MUAHAHAHAHAH
Yeah it's amazing how good it is. I was skeptical at first. But after a rental I was sold. It's like Tetris, Lumines, etc. good f'ing fun!
@Thorax: You could make and send levels to your friends, but there wasn't any central in-game hub to upload/download levels.

boom blox is one hell of an addictive game
@def PD: Also, anyone that has 2, is it essential the same as the first, with new/different levels? Or does it add a bunch of new features fixes anything wrong and/or lacking in the first game?
I'd love to see a Space Invaders-esque level.
@[ZTF]214A, 2A, 5A, 5B, 5C, 5D, 214B, 214D: Let's see here...
"It's coming"
"It's not up yet"
"I'm on it"
too many choices...

@drytoast:
This game is looking even more good.

@Jolan: Now if only they could find a way to design a level that symbolizes our dependence on foreign oil imports and let us destroy that...
No penis level? Come on internet, what are you doing?

@LllusionX loves the inFamous demo!(to death):
what
i saw the IGN level being made in the video review :P
I want this game, i enjoyed the first :D
Did the original Boom Blox have a level sharing feature like this? Either way it looks like I finally have to pick up the first or the sequel.
@Jolan: That means I created the internet! So i win!!

Dammit! Couldn't find the video for the Fox News bit from Idiocracy. :P
@Ps360facepunch: It is also a way of informing terrorists of the big purple self destruct button that has always existed on the white house!

TONIGHT ON FOX NEWS: BOOM BOOM BLOX. A FUN KIDS GAME MIGHT BE TEACHING YOUR CHILDREN TO DESTORY THE WHITEHOUSE WITH BLOCKS. MORE AT 8.
@Jolan: I was about to make a similar comment on this. I'll add in that it will probably be taken down within a month of bitching from parents or patriots.
@LllusionX loves the inFamous demo!(to death): AL GORE!
Boom Blox did 9/11.
sigh
time for political advocates to put this game down
*waits for jack*
@Jolan: COMMUNIST!
LllusionX loves the inFamous demo!(to death)
Lets teach kids how to blow up the White house, the world, and...the death star?

@ALT: TERRORIST SYMPATHIZER!
IGN as in... you get to destroy the IGN office? *grins evily*
Ryan from ElectricGorillas
@Jolan: I can't wait to destroy it from above like Independence Day.
In before political outrage and terrorist examinations of the creators of the White House level. Spreading those horrible computer generated demolitions can only be part of an imminent attack on our soil
Does anyone have this yet? I own the first one and I'm not sure if it's worth picking up the sequel.

I bought this game after I saw this... not BECAUSE of this, it was just because I looked at this RIGHT before I left :P.
