It came with the Playstation, what more can I say, as a launch game it's not bad, not brilliant either.

This is one of two games that came with my Playstation, and until I bought more - and better games - this was excellent. Most of it is relatively easy, though some of the levels were fiendishly difficult.

I much prefer games like Jak and Daxter, where 3D means 3D. In Wrath of cortex the majority of levels are scrolling platformers, there are no real puzzles, no thinking involved. All one has to do to complete the game is work out the correct timing for a variety of actions (namely jumping).

A few levels have innovative design - those set in planes or under the sea. These are spread around to break up the otherwise monotonous game-play.
