User Rating: 4.8 | Astro Boy: Tetsuwan Atom PS2

By B1ACK_MAGE | Review Date: February 25, 2006

This game is based on the Astro-boy series and it does not do the show justice. This is a game I would only recommend to little children.

Graphics: The graphics are mediocre at best. The city is large but you can't do anything there but fly around.

Sound: The voice acting is fine and the music is ok, nothing amazing.

Story: You play as Astro-boy and try to save the world(how original).

Gameplay: The gameplay is very simple. I had problems when flying at times but overall it is ok. I had some camera issues when fighting some of the bosses.

Value: There is little value. If you really want to buy this I would say stop, but if you really like Astro-boy go ahead, but remember I warned you.

Final Verdict: If you have young children they would probably like it, but if your over 10 you'll rather spend your money on waffles.
