The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy. Only for the fans, or not?

User Rating: 8.7 | The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy PS2
I think Billy and Mandy is a game not only for the fans of the Cartoon Network show, but for anyone who's looking to enjoy a pretty funny beat 'em up game, should pick it up. You can play as many different characters from the show--Billy, Mandy, Grim, Fred Fredburger and more are all there. You can use a variety of weapons to smash your opponent with, along with a good amount of different attacks. The arena's themselves change--Adding some challenge to sometimes easy levels. The fights can "drag on", but that sometimes isn't a good thing, while other times it is. The story mode isn't very long; It won't take you long to unlock other characters. You can use these characters and their unique moves later. Also, many weapons are available for use, too. The multi-player is great. Having your friends over and smashing each other up can give you some great fun for hours--especially when using all the different characters. Yeah, the game has it's flaws...Especially with the camera pulling out too far, but the flaws are few. And, sometimes you'll get confused when things get hectic and chaotic.

The graphics and sound are pretty good, too--They seem to come right out of the cartoon. Nothing too bad for a cartoon-based game. Overall, Billy and Mandy is a fun beat 'em up that you can play solo or with friends. The game is perfect for any fans of the show, or anyone who wants to try something new. Billy and Mandy isn't "epic" by any means, but it is a fun (although short) adventure for gamers of any age. I suggest fans of the show or beat 'em ups pick this game up, and hopefully, you won't regret it.
