The maze
manages to be challenging (I'm still stuck on track section 2) yet doable (Laurel has already figured out track section 2), and the cognitive psychologist in me wonders whether the lasting
enjoyment of this
game relates to the fact that you're so concentrated on the track as you rotate that you rarely look at the big picture — meaning, the maze always seems to look new and different when you approach it.
This
game is definitely aimed at the younger Pokemaniacs, but older fans like myself can still get
enjoyment out
of it if they keep an open mind, it's not as good as the first PokePark
game do to looser controls and by just not being as much fun, but it
manages to expand on what the first
game offered in the way
of new content, for instance this time you don't just play as Pikachu but also Tepig, Snivy, and Oshawott after you meet them, and you can switch between them on the fly anytime you want, and you'll need to use each
of their special abilities in your adventure, it also adds side - scrolling sections and a few other new features to keep things fresh, it also has some multiplayer attractions to play with so that's also nice, and you'll still be befriending all sorts
of Pokemon just like the last
game, you also get free roam after the main quest so you can make sure to befriend them all, and it's all adorable do to the cute graphics and world, even the loading screens are adorable, and as a
gamer who typically plays more serious and violent
games it was nice to spend time in the lighthearted PokePark with some
of my favorite Pokemon, I recommend it and I definitely see myself returning in the days to come.
It'll whisk you back to the golden age
of arcade
games, before hitting you smack in the face with its modern day feel, bringing
enjoyment that very few other side scrolling shooters can
manage.
Not too much have changed to be honest, since the release
of Lost Planet 2, the
game is still a third person shooter and you are still freezing your nuts off, however playing as the main protagonist, Jim Peyton actually feels like a positive happening as Mr. Peyton is very likeable right from the beginning and continues to improve and grow on you as you progress through the story, and when you have a protagonist in which the player cares for them the
game manages to get more
enjoyment out
of the overall gameplay early on and it is a welcoming aspect in every
game.
