Graphics are relatively good, but the controls stink. This game isn't worth it.

My thoughts when I first saw this game: it looks interesting, but not all that great. Now that my brother owns it, I have my chance to find out what I though of it after playing. My thoughts: ...this couldn't stink any worse. For a GBA game, the graphics are pretty good. The animations are choppy in places, and enemies look like they were placed with stamps, but the graphics overall are some of the best I've seen on any GameBoy system. As for the gameplay, the plot's not all that bad. However, the gameplay itself is repetetive to the point that I nearly fell asleep at the controls. And that's saying something, because getting the controls to do what you want takes every bit of effort and alertness you've got. Basically, my point: if your sibling gets the game, you may as well try it out; you've got nothing to lose. But don't buy the game for yourself. It's a waste of money.
