This game is literally a modern day version of class Rare titles like Banjo Kazooie and Conkers Bad Fur Day, It plays and feels just like them with an added polish of 17 years of graphical innovation. Pro: - Stunning Visuals - Beautiful Sound track - Amazing Controls - Amazing Level design Con: - Story feels stale (par for the course) - Characters talk like they did in the Banjo Kazooie games - Not so interesting mini games Overall I am impressed with the game. It is fun to play albeit it has some design choices which should have stayed in the past, however if you are a fan of Nintendo 64 platformers like Banjo Kazooie it is defiantly worth the small price of entry.
I had this game many, many years ago on a burnt disk with SimCity 3K written on it. After many years of running the game the disc scratched and became unplayable. I check gog only to find that it had not had a copy yet and got lucky finding the Disc version at a used game store, but now that it does I will get it when my disc dies. But onto the game. The graphics aren't 3D, the Cities are simplistic, and I love it. Because they kept the game simple it can run on almost anything so it is silky smooth (though you might want to play with the graphics if you are running it on a monitor with a resolution grater than 640X480). The music is top notch with amazing City Building style to it. And when you do get board the disasters are always waiting to level your city. It is fun by all sense of the imagination, IMO its the same as 2000 but with a better UI, and way better than 4 since it doesn't use 3D and they very cool style of the game shines through. Its bright, colorful, sound fantastic, and worth every penny.
