this game is stupid i thoght is would be a goood fighter. but when i play it i am bombarded by puzzles and shit. i go to school to be challenged i play games to have fun.
Overall A Good Game
It wasn't horrible. I just recently got it. (courtesy of Lamune). It got a 4 by my standards because there are some parts that happen too fast to think about. Ex. floors that cave in, ledges that break, pillars that fall, etc. Otherwise it's a good game.
Great Game

Graphics- The graphics are truly stunning. I was very suprised with this game. The gameplay graphics aren't as good but the Scene Graphics were amazing. Graphics get a 5/5.
Gameplay- The gameplay was also awesome. I really enjoyed how the controls were used on the Wii. You really feel like you are the character. Also sneaking up on people was very exciting. Gameplay gets a 5/5.
Storyline- The storyline was told very well yet i feel that you will lose interest very quickly. I just wanted to sneak up on kill people. Storyline gets a 4/5.
Online- N/A
Most repetitive game out there

I am a huge fan of the Pop series, but this game wasn't the blow your socks of kind of game I expected.
It did get very repetitive as others have said. Just a bunch of wall running and jumping. I liked it, for a while. I think the developers recognized this when they decided to add in things like enemy archers (new to the series), chariot races, and the Dark Prince, who wields a very cool whip-like weapon. The DP also has his own character, which adds a ton to the plot of the game, which is huge for me.
However, about halfway through the game the spacing of the save points, along with the challenges you face between them (a Dark Prince, Chariot race AND a boss!), make this game unrealistically difficult, and some people I know have even quit because of it. I probably spent about 12 hours in all on the last boss.
However, if you are a fan of the series like I am, who spent 12 hours on a boss, it's a must have. The ending is the best I've seen in a long time. As for those new to PoP, you will not understand a single bit of the wonderful plot if you haven't played the other games. If that doesn't bug you, that's fine.
The graphics are amazing. The characters look the best they have in the entire series and when you're on top of the Tower of Babel, you have this great view of the city of Babylon. there's also some minarets and Islamic symbols up there which is historically inaccurate, but it's still a good game.
