  • Just beat Maximo...

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>This is a game all PS2 owners should get....unless they're wimps.

This game lives up to the legacy of it's prequels: it's HARD. And very good at the same time. I can't believe how well they translated the game to 3D. Everything is so well done: the music rules, the graphics are among the best on the PS2 for a platformer that I've seen, the level design is nothing short of brilliant, the atmosphere is amazing, the difficulty is where you would expect for a Ghouls 'N Ghosts game....the only issue is the camera. It's sucks. It's a part of the difficulty, I know, but it's just irritating. But the rest of the game is so good you can overlook that.

At least rent this game, it's that damned good....unless you're a wimp, of course. You WILL work hard to beat this game, there's no way you can do it in one sitting (took us around 20 or so hours to beat the first time through). But man is it ever satisfying to beat a game like this. i just wonder if I have to go through it again.......</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>It gives you a Gallery mode. He should be able to select it from the start menu. I didn't get it (missed one) but it should be there</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I'm exactly the opposite. I rarely buy a new game unless a system is dying, I REALLY want it (6 games a year at most nowadays), or I'm afraid there's gonna be a shortage</div>
