Hands-on: Taz Express

Infogrames stopped by our office today with its latest Nintendo 64 game in development, Looney Tunes Taz Express. The 3D action/puzzle game allows you to take control of the Tazmanian Devil.

The story behind the game is that Taz is forced by his roommate to get a job so he gets one with the Tazmanian express as a delivery boy. It's up to you, the player, to guide Taz through the game carrying one very important crate – it's not as easy as it sounds though as Taz is limited by the weight of the crate. He must constantly set the crate down to accomplish various tasks, such as pushing switches and moving objects so that he can progress with his cargo. Along the way, several Looney Tunes characters such as Marvin the Martian, Yosemite Sam, and Wile E. Coyote make an appearance.

Looney Tunes Tax Express is expected to ship this November, so look for a full-blown preview of this title soon.
