Fun game but didn't like musicals when fighting bosses or control to run.

Weak

Good Idea - Bad Control Scheme

The Game from the opening credits looked wonderful, lush landscapes and well animated characters...then it went downhill fast.
The dialogues between characters was horrible...not the script but the lip sync, it was like watching a dubbed japanese film.
And the attacks are just as bad, everytime Jack does his basic move he says "Soul Ripper" or something like that (i've blocked it from memory) so many times it'll drive you mad.
But the very worst thing about the game it the camera control...there is none. You can only see what the game it programmed to show you, no optional 1st person look around perspective and it makes it near impossible to find you way on search missions and a dreaded maze level. I gave up and sent it back at this point. No wonder it did so bad in the stores. Gamefly, please remove this game from your selection and do the world a favor, burn them all.

I thought this game was fun. I got stuck in alot of different spots, but eventually figured it out. I like how they made into another movie, but it was definitely not a kid's game. I thought the graphics were great, but the songs where pretty annoying along with the dancing. But it was cute I guess. The last combo at the end is really hard to get. But i will probably get it eventually.
