Review: First things first, ignore any comments from XBM Magazine that only gave this a poxy 6 out of 10, its definately at least a 9. The first thing that strikes you about this title is the unusual graphical style of the characters however, any misgivings with this soon disappear as soon as you see everything moving. It all looks absolutely wonderful - smooth animations on the characters and lush, beautiful environments. Gameplay wise it is again superb, a good mix of puzzle solving and action throughout combined with an excellent control system make this one of the games, if not THE, game of the summer. Sound is also excellent with some quite fantastic lip syncs on the main characters. Overall this is definitely a game to get, true it has a few flaws - I've found that sometimes jumping from standing doesnt always work as well as it should - but this is just a niggle and doesnt really distract you from what is a fantastic title. My advice - buy it and give it a try. |
