This game is suitable rentware! (Spoilers ahead..)

This game is somewhat tragic... The gameplay is some what shallow, Three moves only for a form and jumping is counted as a form specific special ability... Kameo is also tragic, because the sequel that this game leaves an open ending for will never happen... Microsoft cut the funding for the sequel to sell the kinetic... So, we NOW have an incomplete story.. This game is also quite short, and it has several spikes in the difficulty which show themselves suddenly and without warning... On the first night with the game I got about half way through the game, and the rest of my week has basically been clearing the other half... That said I feel sorry for Kalus Kameo's sister who you think is a villain throughout most of the game... In the end you found out only after you beat the last boss that she is not really evil despite her willingness to try to resurrect thorn which you have to stop her from doing (via chilla) .. This game is pretty old and it winds up being a half complete story, since there isn't going to be a sequel... Spoilers aside the REAL enemy(the Mystic) got away! The game should be rented for anyone who wants to see the real graphics capacity of the Xbox 360. Even if you already know the story and even how it ends, you owe it to your self to have a look see at the capacity. Then you would understand just how the Xbox 360 didn't quite live up to its own potential, which is another tragic aspect to this game and the system as a whole... Graphically this game is gorgeous, and the number of sprites on screen is amazing, yet all the other Xbox 360 games seem pale by comparison, which means that the Xbox 360 was a tragedy of a game system as it would never again use its graphics to the same extent again ... Two worlds, Oblivion, and so many other games were given the short end of the stick... We should observe a moment of silence for such a grand system of wasted potential... Try before you buy!
