I can't find the old topic, so I'm just going to start a new one.

Anybody get it?
My sister's fiance lent me his new copy, because he couldn't afford to get me my own.
I have to say, it's rather fun...one of the only problems (and most major) is that it has a crappy camera.
Like, REALLY crappy.
The only other thing that I don't like about it is that it's very linear...I'm not quite used to that.

However, in my opinion, the atmosphere totally makes up for it.
This is one damn cool game.
Seeing all of these old Disney things all warped and twisted is really, really damn awesome.

I'll post a more detailed review after I get it.

Yeah, I've only really heard that the camera sucks. Nobody says anything else about it.

I don't know if it's genuinely awful, or just N64 lousy. We're so jaded these days that I need to see for myself.

Nobody says anything else about it.
A few things that I can think right off the top of my head:

Cons:
  • I really, really don't like getting locked out of areas.
  • Navi got turned into a gremlin.
  • The motion control can be a bit shaky
  • Aforementioned camera issues

Pros:
  • ****ing terrific music. Like, top notch.
  • Amazing atmosphere
  • I've yet to find an enemy that you can just run up to and smack to kill. All of them you have to actually strategize against.
  • Lots and lots and lots and lots of hidden stuff.

I haven't played long enough to get any REALLY big gripes with it, or find something that I think would be absolutely amazing in a game.

Overall, I think it's worth renting, at this point.
Buy it if you love Disney, though.
It's absolutely loaded with Disney references (duh).
