The story in this games is that while ben was sleeping, one of Vilgax's drones stole a bunch of DNA from the Omnitrix so he can use it 2 aid him in his evil doings, which leaves Ben to recover his other alien forms, seeing as you start the game off with only 2 of them (Fourarms and Heatblast). Anyways you set out with your Grandpa Max and Cousin Gwen to hunt down whose behind it all. Well, this game is pretty well done, the graphics are what you would expect from an average PS2 title, the sounds ok, and they got the actual actors from the show to do the voices in tha game. The levels are fairly done, and does a good job of using the specific abilities of the different forms. And even though a lot of games are ripping off the on-screen button sequence mini games from God Of War and Resident Evil 4, it does a good job with it in this game. One of my complaints though, is that it does get repetitive, and they will make fight so many enemies in each leavel that if you cranked it up to hero diffulcity, after about 2 or 3 levels, your fingers will be so soar that you'll be tired of it and ready to give it a rest for the day. My other complaint is, even though the unlockables and secrets are mildly entertaining, it really sucked that you only got to play as 5 of Ben's Alien forms, I mean whats the point in calling it Ben 10, if you can only play as half of them, should've been Ben 5 instead. I mean I can't help but wonder what interesting levels could've been done if you could've played as more of Ben's forms, Like a chase level playing as wildmutt (i think thats his name) or diamondhead, which is a fan favorite that sorely makes them lose big points because there are hints and proof in the game that one of Ben's foes was using diamondhead's DNA for their evil bidding. Well besides these obvious pains like thornes on a rose, the rest of the game is good, and if your a fan of The series or like aliens, and have a few afternoons open for some casual gaming, I say pick it up.
