Not a bad game. The controls work well, and I'm satisfied with my purchase. If you have more than one system, you might want to check reviews between the Wii version and this one. The one thing that makes the Wii version stand out is the mini-games.

I wish I had got this game on PS2. Cheat Code Central hits the target: "I found myself wishing that I could just hit buttons to attack instead of pointlessly shaking the controllers back and forth." The enemies take a rather long time to defeat so your arm will be aching by the end of a simple battle. I hated how you could run against walls when running to places but not during combat; that would have made things more intersting. Overall, it was some decent "fun", but the bad aspects overshadow the good.… Expand

Sure the game is linear. Sure there a no fighting upgrades, really! No Multiplayer. Not much collectibles. No destructible environments. And a confusing storyline. In fact, let’s be honest this games lacks dept in every corner. However at a bargain bin price, you will be the happy owner of what’s left of the game, which is a few game mechanics that work. The platforming works just great. The basic fighting system works just fine as well. The game is short (approximately 6-7 hours the first time thru, add another 6-7 hours to unlock everything), but really fun while it lasts. Jumping, leaping and hopping in many different ways and in every direction, it’s a blast.

For 20$ or a week-end rental, this a good pick (who said we didn’t need games to rent?).… Expand

I like the GameSpot review. It sums it up nicely. There are some cool aspects to the game. Like the story and the ninja-like gameplay. but there are too many flaws to really enjoy the game as much as you could. The levels seem to be too long (took me 30 minutes to beat one of the levels) and the combat does suck ass.
