THQ Links Nickelodeon Videogames Titles
THQ Inc. announced a new design feature that links multiple titles in THQ's Nickelodeon videogame lineup for the PlayStation 2, enabling expanded game play and special features for consumers who own more than one of the titles. THQ's Nickelodeon games that incorporate this special “Cross Save” feature include TAK: THE GREAT JUJU CHALLENGE, SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS: LIGHTS, CAMERA PANTS!, NICKTOONS UNITE! and BARNYARD, based on Paramount Pictures'/Nickelodeon Movies' upcoming theatrical release.
"THQ is thrilled to provide such a unique opportunity to reward fan loyalty," said John Ardell, director, global brand management, THQ. "The Cross Save feature offers consumers an opportunity to experience added playability in THQ's Nickelodeon titles on PlayStation 2."
The Cross Save feature follows a three-tiered approach. When the Memory Card accessory for the PlayStation 2 detects one of the other three saved Nickelodeon games for the first time, a new tier of bonus content will be unlocked for each game. Players will be able to access different costumes, more health, magic ability, vehicles and much more.
TAK: THE GREAT JUJU CHALLENGE, SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS: LIGHTS, CAMERA, PANTS! and NICKTOONS UNITE! are now available and BARNYARD is expected to be available in the 2nd half of 2006.
