My perspective on this game is going to be slightly skewed because it was my first PS2 game I had when I was a kid. But after playing it again recently I noticed that it's actually a very good game. I think my favourite aspect of the game is the varied gameplay elements. Certain boss fights, level designs and in particular the inter-level psychedelic surfboard seem unique compared to the gameplay of other platformers. I also think the soundtrack is well done and I like the scoring system, though I am at a loss to how the end-of-level star rating works. Yes the humour can feel a bit corny, but you've got to remember who the target audience are in this. I personally prefer it to Rayman 2, which felt slightly more generic and dull, though I can see why people may think the other way. It would get a 5 star on PS2, but I don't think they did a great job with the PC port so that loses it a star from me. Otherwise a great game that I highly recommend.
