It's been my favorite so far, I think. The environments were excellent. The rabbit burrow, for instance, was a different type of environment. Before it, I can't remember anything with a ceiling...well, maybe inside the wolf's stomach...but I loved the close quarters. I liked the rolling hills in a few of the levels. It was also a little more challenging in a good way. And I saw one of the load screens that said Grimm is voiced by the same guy who did the Cheshire Cat. I thought it was him. "Here's a riddle: When is a croquet mallet like a billy club?" He has an excellent voice for that type of character. Oh, and I liked how Puss would shout words and they would hang in the air. That was cool. This game seemed bigger/longer. The file size was a good 100 MB bigger. I still wish the unlockable for finding all the coins was a little more than the gallery. Maybe something more is in the works. All in all, I loved Puss, it was great fun! Thanks! I played Puss last night and I loved it. It’s been my favorite so far, I think.

BUT I've seen GameTap people mention that this message will appear if you go to visit the episode page while they are uploading all the final content and making the episode "live" - I think they do this around 11am. Just navigate away, wait a few minutes, then return. Things should be fine. Also, I've asked GameTap if there's a way to prevent this message from scaring people away - seems a lot of people are experiencing the same situation as you, and they aren't liking it.

This wasn't the case with the first two (accidentally skipped fishwife, I'll correct that soon). What gives? I'm looking forward to playing this one.
