| Summary: Not THAT bad
75
I think this game isn't as bad as I have heard, I mean I've been hearing for months that this is the worst game ever for PSP. I just didn't belive it, so I rented it with Gamefly and thought I would give it a shot. I think it was worth it but I can see why it got bad reviews.
Gameplay
There are 4 different kinds of gameplay modes: story, arcade, challange, and special. Ive only played story and challange. The story mode only has 10 levels which kinda sucks, but within each level or I mean bomb, there are multiple puzzles. There are like 6-7 difffernt kinds of them. There is one that is like that pipe game where you have to connect the pipes or whatnot I like that one the best. They also have one that you get a laser and you have to use mirrors to blow up the other laser on the other end. And challange mode is the same thing as story except you dont get a time limit, you get timed, so no pressure. And that is one of the things I want to cover is the pressure. It is insane sometimes, I mean when you get to the last 20 seconds of the puzzle it starts ticking down and the screen starts to shake faster and faster. They REALLY put a lot of pressure on you when your playing. Thats one of the issues and another big one is you have to basically memorize all of the puzzles to win. So you need to play each level a lot to memorize it all.
Controls
They are pretty much fine except when you control the ball, when you are turning it is VERY choppy and gets annoying. And when you have to turn the crank for the gears puzzle it kinda lags when ur turing it. But overall they arent a problem.
Fun
Im haveing a lot of fun so far but I think you would have to like playing the same things over and over again to master it to like the game and thats why a lot of people didn't like it was because of this. They didn't find doing the same thing over and over again fun. I think its pretty fun.
Load Times
This is another issue with the game. The load times are pretty bad. Just to start up the game takes like a minute. And when you finish the level it takes like a minuite to get to the next one. And if you lose the level and have to start over it takes like a minute to load it up. I thought that was lame.
Replay
Again you have to want to play the same thing over and over again and if that sounds fun to you like it does to me then its got pretty good replay abilitly. I like to go back and beat it because I feel so accomplished when I actually beat the level.
Overall
I think this game is totally worth renting and giving it a shot. I'm probably gonna buy this game, I've still got a while to go with the game and I think it's a decent game.

I've not read much about this game...but by looking at the screenshots, it looks just like a Resident Evil mini game.
Is such an assumption too far off?

I wonder if it really is this bad, or if those playing it lack intelligence...

I doubt they lack intelligence. Perhaps they aren't as gifted and brilliant as you are? I've been curious about this from day 1..3..5.. and 22.. Hoping to get it cheap somewhere someday..since everyone seems to hate it so much. Maybe you'll sell me yours Bigstu..<after you totally defeat it of course!>?
