You can see the video there or download it from there to watch on your desktop.
Anyway, this game has really shaped up since E3 and Aang no longer has that funky walk/run animation anymore.?? The game has also taken on a camera perspective that you might expect out of Gauntlet or the X-Men Legends games.?? Anyway, you can play as Aang, Katara, Sokka or Haru?? and there was even a point in the video where you could scout ahead using Momo. (I would bet using Momo in puzzles would be likely as well)?? Anyway, each of the characters who know bending techniques can use skills of varying power and Sokka can fight with his boomerang and dagger and I believe he has other implements as well.?? Anyway, they fight some creatures with the same kind of make up as those in the show which creatures like Platypus Bears and such.?? You can also pick up various items and cash like copper coins and the like.
The most interesting thing and what I feel will be most awesome on Wii is when you get to areas where Aang has to use his focus power.?? During that sequence, an on screen chart will prompt you to move the controller and press buttons to pull off the bending technique or skill needed to discover hidden items or new areas.
I really can't wait for this game and I think it launches later this year, so what do you think??? Nickelodeon games are usually of poor quality from my experience but this game is turning out rather nicely.

Why Haru? I mean he's cool and all, but he was only in 1 episode. 1! He never even travels with the other 3. I would say where's Toph, but I'm guessing this is like a Book 1 thing, and no one from Book 2 will be in there, right.
That better be how it is, because if they are using parts of Book 2, and they used Haru instead of Toph...
Any way, it looks like it will be fun... except for the Haru part.

I'm not going to get it but.

I was wondering if it might show the ending right?

Like i mean, will the ending be you fighting fire lord Ozai or will they make a sequel?

Actually, the game is based on an entirely separate??quest from the creators of Avatar last I heard. (E3 back in May)?? It's still based on the main story I believe, it just doesn't follow it entirely though I imagine we would see some familiar things anyway.??So I don't think we'll be hearing of the series' ending but just experiencing a new quest for Aang and the gange. I do think it takes place within the realm of Book 1 because of Haru's inclusion (as I do prefer Toph as well) but hey, if this game does well maybe we'll see future sequels with other characters as additions.

yea it's made by Nintendo (duh) and was called the revolution first but they changed it to Wii.

But it's a waste of money, the xbox 360 or ps3 are more worth your money if ur gonna spend it -.-

Nintendo gets really bad games except for like zelda and super smash brothers!

Yeah, that did remind me of X-men-Legends. Unfortunatley, I still have no faith in this game being any good. It just looked like some generic button masher that takes little effort to beat. Being able to switch between characters at anypoint in the level??is nice, considering there appeared to be a limited selection of moves. I kept seeing the same thing over and over. Granted, that was the beggining of the game. What scares me the most is the thought of cutscenes . Any word on how those will be pulled off?

IMO the PS3 is a larger waste of money seeing as how the price ($599) is MORE than twice that of the Wii's (less than $250) and the games are 70$ a pop. O_O

don't just think of the PS3 as just a gaming device....think of it as your one stop shop for all your enterainment needs. In which case, $600 is a bargain

O. Still, my parents would never get me anything that is 600 like that, I paid for more than half my computer with gift cards to best buy, and it was my birthday! And 70 a piece!
