    I cannot recommend this game for adults, kids, or even a rental, unless you plan to find humour in a so bad it's good kind of way.

    Here's another game that was bizarrely reviewed in harsh fashion by Gamespot, where if it's not a big-name title or a the console version, it's going to get ripped a new one. Clearly, CLEARLY this title is aimed at a younger audience and features a very reasonable price to boot, yet it wasn't deep enough or worth the valuable time of the GS reviewer who must be (apparently) making a grand an hour if this game wasn't worth his efforts or a good score.

    The game features great graphics, zero bugs, tons of unlocks, lots of on-screen action, a variety of settings, solid sound design, and excellently captures the toy series it's based off of.

A nice departure from Lego Star Wars-style play, Bionicle Heroes uses an "over-the-shoulder" 3rd-person view, similar to Gears of War that works really well for this game. Other big benefits: great support for next-gen PC graphics cards with Shader Model 3 support such as on GeForce 7 and new 8 Series running a super-high widescreen resolutions makes the special effects and experience a million times better than Xbox 360 or other consoles.… Full Review »
