Hope you like frustration
The controls are god awful, How gamespot could miss that I dont know.
The developers made the controls much more complicated then needed. Most actions could have been done with 1 or 2 buttons. But they mapped them all over the place.
If you play long enough it will become 2nd nature. But it becomes obvious very soon that they mapped the controls this way to help make the game seem more complicated then it really is.
Too bad too, as the controls ruin at least half of the games promise.
The other half is ruined by the punishing difficulty of the game.
Timing jumps needs to be SPOT ON. Missing by the smallest amount will leave you a splatter on the ground. Even on easy this game will drive you to throw your controller across the room.
On the plus side it is very pretty. Nice sounds. I'd say if the game had decent controls and just a tiny bit of forgiveness then the game would be a easy 7 out of 10.
However I have learned my lesson, and will not buy any more EA games before I have rented them. Total waste of money.
