Sorry about this, but I feel I need to respond to er-no's "Blinx is crap" post and redress the balance.

Blinx is a great game: very addictive, has a great atmosphere, excellent music, and the time controls work perfectly.

And it's also very challenging, which is a good thing, seeing that most games these days are a piece of p!ss to complete.

It offers something different to your average platformer. Well worth buying in my opinion.

Yes your right Gamezfreak but a post 'Blinx is Crap' followed by IT IS in the sentances is classed as forcing their opinion and how he can talk with Mario Sunshine is beyond me :)

I am going to add this to my list as one of my friends has rated it very highly and said it is a definate Mario beater! I will have to play the game and see for myself but at the moment I am hooked on WWE RAW which suprisingly is fantastic game in my opinion!

Blinx might be crap, Blinx might be cool, but Ratchet & Clank is most definitely better! ;-p

Blinx is a classic game -in my opinion- ;)
A proper game where the main emphasis is on gameplay, quick reactions and skill. I can't stop playing it :)

I did like the idea of stopping time that seems great fun.

Is your friend a stand up comedian or just a big tard?

Blinx is okay not terrible, bare in mind I played it for 10 minutes, but it certainly wasn't anything to fill your pants with brown coloured joy about.

To me it's just an average platformer with a few innovative ideas.
