Why?? Well let me tell you..........

It's original, an idea which is extremely clever and intuitive....

The AI is brilliant.......

The story is simple enough to allow you to enjoy the gameplay..........

It's challenging.......

It has a PAL 60hz mode (not the same as NTSC) which eradicates the big black borders.......

It is quite simply the best looking game on the PS2 after GT3 and the MGS2 demo.........

It's the most addictable game on the PS2........

The bad monsters are pink and fluffy.......

Now, now numpty boy, the Playstation 2 is a low resolution console compared with the Xbox GC etc, so most games are going to appear pixellated. This game does have some of the best graphics I have ever seen. The animation is far and above anything which has been acieved in a computer game before. Jak and Daxter was the best, now this rules. I know it will be beaten someday, but not for a while to come.

Do you have a 20 foot tv or something? Even on a 28" at home it looks good, making it look brilliant on my 14" up at uni.

Although the first level is pretty tiny, as you progress, the levels get bigger, and more difficult to explore. If you go to the "extras" menu, there is a long list of unlockables. One is unlocked each time you collect all the cow bells on a level (so I`m guessing its one unlockable per level).

As a result, I`d guess there are about 20 levels, each getting bigger and better as you go. I`d say there were as many hours of gameplay - at least. Probably 30-40 I hope.

I had a friend at school like that, he would always talk really slowly and you had to smack him to speed him up...

back to the game...

So has anyone any idea how long the game is?

So far so funny... the game is great to play, and certianly makes me laugh from time to time...

however

The voices... I am soooo glad they let you skip them. Its clearly aimed at a younger audience as well, so they speak so sl ow ww ll ly, which is annoying.

Never mind, the game is good enough to get round that, even if it does make the voices in Kessen seem top notch.
