NOT! I can't believe I bought this game years ago and it's still addicting to still Christmas. Do not get this game. It's a horrid game. It's only fun when you have the gadgets since they are too hard to build. If someone beats this game, please send me photos of the gadgets.

Totally Grinched Out

Simply, I love this game. I played it as a demo when it first was released, then rented it from a video store to play. I never was able to finish the game bc shortly after my ps broke, now that I am up and running, the purchase of The Grinch was a great add to my collection. I love this puzzle filled game.

2 copies of this game and more bugs than at a roach farm

This game is soooo fun, but sooooo many bugs. You think thats nothing? Trust me, what a pain in the bum. Glitches, stalls, ugh. I have two copies for playstation and both have the same problems. YET, if you buy it knowing and expecting bugs, or if it's ever re-released without them, this could be your favorite game ever. Puzzle action without being lame...so grinchy.

I played this game last Xmas, and within about 10 minutes I wanted to put it back in the box and throw it up the chimney. Maybe I was just missing something, or maybe this game is absolutely horrible. Someone else on here said they couldn't figure out the 1st world; I'm with you...I don't get this game.

Very Difficult

I agree with other reviewers that this game is very difficult and frustrating. Even with the internet hints, it's still a trial. I recieved this last christmas got to the third level and haven't played it since. I love the music, and the graphics weren't as bad as people make it to be, but when you can't play the game, this doesn't make up for it.

Fun........unless you have something else.

Man, I don't know. It's weird. It seems as though this game was solely made as extra propheting for the movie. Now that no one has the movie----which was a passing fase-----no one will buy the game. I don't know. It's fun but to rate a game E when it should be T. I mean, seriously. Why? Your whole objective is to ruin Christmas. So.... It seems like Grand Theft Auto for 3 year olds. No that I don't like this game. It's a great time killer. My friends little brother says" ouch" when he does a pancake. It's a pretty fun game. Nothing compared to Star Wars though. It's good to rent maybe once and beat it, but not good to play over and over, though. See what I mean? ...

Not a good game

This game does not deserve a great rating. The gameplay isn't very good. I mean, the music stinks and the game itself is just not what someone would hope for.

The Grinch That Ruined Christmas

With Christmas upon us,and gift-giving near,Here's a sure way to ruin holiday cheer:Buy The Grinch,slip it under the tree,Wrap it up nice,then snicker with glee.For nothing will dampen a child's joy Like receiving an utterly worthless toy.Konami's new game may have good intentions,But nothing disguises its poor animations.With graphics unpolished and gliches aplenty,Pop-up and seaming and mistakes elementary,Levels so barren,backgrounds so bland,Horribly ugly-it's just out of hand!Yet The Grinch is more than a loathsome eyesore,For the gameplay is an annoyingly awful chore.The sluggish control is no Yuletide treat,The simplest task is a thumb-numbing feat.Moments so cheap it isn't fair,Collision-detection that's beyond repair.The voice-acting's soild, the music is charming,But still the game is simply alarming.Avoid The Grinch-it's without hope, Or foist it on a child if you're a true misanthrope.

Konami....What Is Going On Here?

Not quite sure what happened with the folks over at Konami; they usually make quality games on several different platforms. Not this time. The Grinch suffers all across the board. The graphics are hurting and look funny; and trying to figure out just what you are supposed to do is basically impossible. I spent about 30 minutes trying to navigate the first board, and about an hour later the game hadn't gotten any better so I put it back in the box and returned it.
