A good game for colors,graphics and imagination. To bad the controls were a real nightmare.

The rundown:
Nights: Journey of Dreams (trademarked NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams) is a platform game for the Wii console developed by Sonic Team and Sega. It is the sequel to the 1996 Sega Saturn title Nights into Dreams.... It is the fourth and last game developed by Sega Studio USA, with Takashi Iizuka, the head of the United States branch and one of the designers of the original, as producer, director, and lead game designer. Like the original, the game is set in the dream world of Nightopia, which is under threat from nightmare beings called Nightmaren, and the gameplay is based around the flight of a jester-like rebel Nightmaren named Nights. You play through the game as two children whose lives have been devastated by a parental act or event. The cast is very short, you dualalize with nights and use him (I know the voice over is a English woman) and fly around levels and solve difficult puzzles all on a strict time limit. The games main character Nights is a feminine looking nightmaren that has bulging blue eyes and wares blue purple and gold. The games main bad guy or antagonistic is another nightmarean known as Reala( pronounced Re-al-la) he is a muscular blue eyed read white and burgundy warring prick. He all ways ends up kid napping Nights and puts him in a cage. Then the children must go and clime into the cage and dualize with Nights and the mission leads to you having to break Nights out using nights.

The Good
This game was fun, the graphics and colors were vivid and just plain beautiful. The story made since and left almost no holes and had a OK plot

The Bad:
Even though this game did good by riding on the shirt tails of the original Nights game for the Sega Saturn. But the controls for this game will make you crazy. I would advise any one wanting to play this to give up on the idea of the motion controls and plug in the game cube controller. The fact that all the game missions must be played on a f@#$ing time limit is enough to make me puke.

The Ugly: The games cut scenes that are unavoidable and unstoppable. You must sit through the whole thing. And the fact you don't take but 5 or 6 steps and your into another cut scene.

Conclusion:
This game had some major unlikable parts, the fact that the game spot reviewer gave it a 7.5 out of ten confuses me. The controls of this game alone should keep it from being any ware close to that. I'm giving it a 3 out of 10 or a .5 out of 5
