A classic to this day. How 3D Platformers should be done.
Gameplay: Really your normal platforming fair here. At its peak, though. The vehicle missions add new stuff to the thrill of jumping over a canyon. It really stands out as being great. Not much more to say here, folks.
Story: A little better than normal platformer stories. The characters are great, very, very memorable. The story could definitely be deeper, but it is still good enough to play.
Difficulty: The game is easy. A few challenges, though, you might have to try a few times. These come few and far in-between. You can definitely tell that this was meant more for kids than it sequels. Speaking of which, I'll make reviews of them later.
Length: This game is also relatively short, unless you decide to collect all of the precursor orbs. Then, you add on a few hours. Still, a great game.
Music: This game has a nice variety of music, a bit better than normal platformer music. Voice-Acting is excellent, I might add.
Overall: This game is a classic example of a platformer done right. Please, if you have a Ps2, do not hesitate. Buy this game. You'll overcome its flaws. Trust me on this one.
