when i first got the game for the Sega Saturn, i thought it was one of the coolest games ever! so when i found NiGHTS Journey of Dreams, i just had to rent it.
Although the game seems easier now, i still have the feeling i got from the first one: i HAVE to get a better score. most people hate the track system, where its a 3d map with a 2d movement, but i think it helps make the game challenging, cause you HAVE to go through all these different obstacles instead of flying around them, and also, it makes it to where you cant just finish the level in 30 seconds.
the controls do take a lot of getting used to, but its worth it when you finally master them. (personally, i feel that the Wii-mote controls really suck, but thats why i use the nun-chuck. it gives me the feeling that i had with my over sized Saturn controller with the analog stick... just alot smaller. also what threw me off though, is that the in game graphics remind me of the original's graphics 90% of the time. which isn't necessarily a bad thing. it adds to the nostalgia.
The voice overs are great! sonic team really took their time finding voice actors. also, i think the music is still well placed as well.
Story: this was a great addition, as the original versions story consisted of an opening and ending video. now it actually explains stuff that you wondered about. like why your timed, why you turn human when the time ends, etc.
all in all, i give this game a 9.5 out of 10
