I just downloaded two videos of Vexx, a game which i thought was going to add to the list of games and thinking it could replace rare with its same style of looks. But after nearly 10Mb of videos instantly i saw it and only negative things could come to my head.

It looks very liner
It looks glitchly
Also it looks nothing like i thought it was going to be like.

Now, Hoping that this game. But i think its too late now. Its a let down, But maybe the gameplay is great. But from what i see. Its going down there with games like Universal Studios.

Surely it can't go down as far as Universal Studios, you haven't even played it yet mate, most games are very linear (e.g. Halo and Half Life even Mario)...

Anyway, here's hoping it's good :D

I'm on the lookout for another 'Cube platform game (I already own Mario Sunshine), and after reading the Gamespot reviews of Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly (32%) and Crash Bandicoot: Wrath of Cortex (51%), I was hoping that Vexx will be the brilliant game that Acclaim are promising. To be fair, it does look rather good... but if what Evil Dark says is true, I could have a long, long wait for another decent platformer. Here's hoping for a Ratchet & Clank port then, eh? :)

Well, I have a saying. If it doesn't look appealing or have potential within the first 15 seconds of a video clip, it isn't worth buying. Because for me, it only takes a few moments to realise if a game is any good, average, classic or one of those "oh know, it has that type of look to it. You know the one. That third party title look".

Which is the case with Vexx.
