One of the grandest games I have ever played in all my history of GameSpot, video games, life, and the Nintendo GameCube

User Rating: 9.4 | Alien Hominid GC
This is such a sweet, sweet game because of many things that are so plentiful and complicated that I won't even bother to list them. This game freakin' rocks. Why? Because you play as a little, cute alien who can bite the heads off of certain random creatures found across the game world. That is good. There is a fully-functional 2-player co-op and reasonably fun 4-player party/mini games. That is good. There are 16 levels or so of side-scrolling mayhem that will make you very well acquainted with the B button...on the standard control setting. That is good. The graphics and sound are...good. Particularly the graphics. The graphics look like a mutated comic book, and the sound, while not bad, could use some work. It sounds sort of like clinky arcade music from the 90's with a few improovmintz here and there. Overall, the gameplay is overly entertaining, the graphics and sound are passable at worst and magnificent at best, and the multiplayer provides for endless challenge and fighting. Just remember to play the co-op and continually ride on your partner's head. :-) -This programming prowess has been reviewed by Ty.
