The choice of being a hero or villian rest in his hands.

User Rating: 5.5 | El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera PS2
The series of El Tigre is a Nickelodeon cartoon that aired on the network as I liked watching the show at times when I could so one day I found out there was a video game released so I decided to give it a try to see if it lives up to the tv show.
The story follows as Manny Rivera aka El Tigre is battling against a gang of villians until both his father and grandfather are kidnapped and that now it's up to our brave hero or villian as he doesn't have a clue yet on who's footsteps that he wants to follow in yet has to save his family before it's too late.
When you play through the levels as there is only four levels within the game which I find to be too short you will notice that the game is played different then most games as you play sideways as you move El Tigre either backward or forward to move through the level , jump onto platforms and punch bad guys as you must get to the end to move on to the next level but also you need to keep your eyes open for enemies to fight as they will drop coins that can unlock costumes for you to change into but I don't think they give you special powers but it's fun to play different every once in awhile plus you will notice that when you are i a level that a clock will countdown to see how long it takes you to get through the level so it's sometimes a challenge to beat the record time as it just gives you extra coins and you can unlock cheat codes with the coins you collect also which you will need alot.
Aside from playing as El Tigre you have the choice of playing as two characters which are Frida who is Manny's best friend who is also a friend and you can play as Black Cuervo who is also a girl that happens to be villian but just to say that you can only play as two characters each in all levels except for the final level as you battle the main boss with only El Tigre.
The game was alright but I liked the tv series alot better as there was a bonus with the game that you can watch a episode of the show but that's about it so the choice is yours that if you like the show then try it out or if you like to play games that are different then also try it out if you like.
