That's right, I wanted to like this game I really did but the more I play it the more it dawns on me just how pathetically retarded it is.

At first I was enjoying myself, the graphics where amazing and the puzzles seemed simple but okay. I'm starting to realise though why it got such low marks, it stupidly linear, the majority of puzzels are pathetically simliar and extremely simple. It's like Zelda for retards...not just your normal retard though these would have to be super, super retards. Sometimes i've got stuck because I find myself looking into the puzzle to much when actual fact I should be looking for a stupid symbol on the wall, absoloute ar$e.

I games where rated on graphics then this would be the best game of the year, unfortunatly they're not and I agree with Digitiser this deserves 2/10, not because it's THAT bad, it's bad but not THAT bad but because Rare should have done so much better, they've proved they can before so what in Gods name possessed them when they where making this steaming pile of toss I realy don't know.

Oh and this is coming from someone who loved DK64 and thinks Banjo Tooie is one of the best games ever.

I'll play the game to the end just because, but it'll be going back as soon as I finish it.

I've not played the game (I probably won't get it after Digi and Tilt's reviews), but I've read some reviews.

Nintendo seem to want to take the game one way, Rare another - that's why it ended up stretched and mis-shapen.
They just don't seem to get on as a team anymore.

What I'd like to see, is this game redone.
Take out Starfox (he was never really meant to be in there anyway), the game engine and game world seem to be alright, just the game design itself that needs rigging.

Back to Dinosaur Planet, that Zelda rivalling N64 game with Jaw dropping graphics and a giant game world...


Along with Kameo, it would be something to get an Xbox for...

I love arguments like this.

"Doshin is GAY"

"no it's not"

"you're so open to suggestions"

"NO"

I'm having great fun! It's a really well put together game, and the levels are really well put together.

I'm about 28% through, with around 8 hours on the clock.

Fact is.

If a game of this size had been released WHEN IT WAS MEANT TO BE on the N64.

It would be a fantastic game. No doubt.

Its because you expect more.
