I remember renting this game quite a while ago and liking it but not enough to pay full price. I just bought it used for $15 (Can) and can't believe my luck...this is one great game! The graphics are good enough to put it on par with many games released in 2005 and better than most. The settings are beautiful and character models look wonderful. Your Diskarmour, like a deadly yo-yo on a chain, is a cool weapon and each one you acquire has its own strengths. Bosses I've met so far are big and colourful if a bit easy but still enjoyable to conquer. Game itself has warp zones that you can see early on in the games but can't reach until you acquire certain power ups as you play. This is also the same for many floating spheres you see as you play...you cannot make use of them until the game gives you additional abilities for your diskarmour. One level, consisting of two towers side by side, even had a "Prince of Persia" feel to it. Definately worth a purchase if you can find it for the right price.
