Could Be Worse

Low quality graphics, constant loading times, and repetitive music. Still, it was fun to play, which is why I gave it as high a score as I did.
This game suffer from some bad programming. The game jarringly loads cut scenes. You're traveling along when your character comes to a dead-stop, then the cut scene loads, play out, then the game loads again to bring you back to the level. You're going to see the load screen a lot. Instead of the level loading on the fly, there are many hard-points in the game where the next area loads. Have to go back? The previous area has to load at that same point.
The graphics are really sub-par. Several times you can catch the textures loading in the environment. This isn't because you're traveling too fast neither. One time I looked ahead to a near-by hill and the textures loaded. "OK, whatever. ", I thought, but I backtracked a little and returned, the same textures loaded on the same spot, on the same hill. I didn't even travel that far.
There is, like, one piece of music that plays throughout the game. There are other pieces of music that play, sure, and most of the time I didn't even notice, but, any lull and you'll hear the same couple of notes you heard a few levels back.
I hated the little guy. Annoying and constantly getting into trouble. I think he was suppose to be endearingly comical, but I just simply hated him.
