kameo is a good and fun game worth playing through at least once

Kameo is a fun platformer with a unique twist, but has some problems too., it could be longer, have tighter controls, and could of improved on what it already does good.

The gameplay works well. Its not a normal platformer though, a unique twist has been brought the the genre where you can play one of many alternate personnas, such as the Pummel Weed, which is basically a crazed flower which beats people up, or Rubble, who can throw rocks that are attatched to him, as well as command other rocks to form things like rock bridges. These character all have three unique moves, all mapped to the L and R triggers. You have to learn which character to use at any given moment. This starts out simple but ends up getting a bit more complicated when doing things like changing characters in mid-air to try to catch on to a ledge. The gameplay is overall pretty good, but doesn't really offer a deep experience.

The graphics are great, but in a cartoony style, and the models and textures are great. My one problem is some bigger enviornments have the occasional pop-ins, which in my opinion shouldn't happen with next-gen machines.

The sound in Kameo is pretty good. The effects are nice, and the music is outstanding, but the voices could be better. Kameo is a pretty short game, with not much to go back to, but some sequences are really cool, which you'll want to replay.
