last year, for PSX The Mummy was released. that sucked. well this one seems to be going in a different direction. you can play as Rick O'Connell or you can be the bald walking dead dude, Imhotep. As rick you must save your son Alex, you must un-brainwash your wife, Evelyn and then save the world, just like the movie. As the Mummy, you must use your powers to stop Rick and use agains Ardeth Bay and his Medjai and more. For both of the characters, you must defeat pygmy mummy's and the Scorpion King. Universal (the game's developer) claims that The Rock looks better in this game than it will in THQ's SmackDown! 3.

The Mummy Returned and it can go back again.

I was looking forward to this game as I enjoyed the film. I have a number of titles on PlayStation 2, yet this has to be the most disapointing. A combination of poor graphics (that wouldn't look out of place on a NES, let alone a 21st Century console) and wooden gameplay make this a sub-standard product indeed. I hope that when the Mummy comes back again, he will find a better product to put his name on.

Metal Gear Mummy?

I was looking forward to this game lots. Sadly it is really poor. The graphics are very weak, they look like PS-One graphics. The character's are very wooden as they move along. The landscapes are dull & not intresting at all. The gameplay was weak too. Maybe they should have told the development team to wait for the next film instead. Avoid this game, wait for Metal Gear Solid 2. I feel that this is a very poor standard for PS 2.

This game rocks

I got my Playstation 2 for my birthday. With it were a number of classic titles - and - the Mummy Returns. After playing Devil May Cry I knew that this was going to be the best birthday ever. That was until I booted up Mummy Returns. I tried to enjoy it but I found myself going back to DMC. Compared to the other titles, this just looks dated and badly put together. Graphics are bad and the characters only resemble those of the film. Worst PSX2 game... EVER.

Avoid this game like the plague

This is the dullest PS2 game I have played this year. Its even worst then the first Mummy game for the PS1. It only took me a day to beat this game. Some of the problems this game has is that it does not look like a next generation console game at all. Some of the PS1 games look better than this. The character animation for the models look stiff and there is no lip movement (the demo version I saw a few months ago had lip movement) when they are talking even though they have mouths. The music is uninspiring unlike the music for the first game. The voice acting is horrible and Alex the brat kid is even more annoying. The characters say all sorts of stupid stuff which makes the movie version acting seem like masterpiece theater. There is not much game play here, you mostly just find your way to the end of the level by finding a few keys to unlock doors and you can run by most of the enemies instead of fighting them. The fighting in the game is also boring. The fighting would be fine if it was a 2D game but as a 3D game, it needs more variety to the character's fighting style. The spells that Imhotep uses are not that interesting except for sucking your enemies souls to replenish his health. All his other spells are not that useful. The controls for the character needs more tweeking and the camera movement behind your character is sometimes a problem. The only real challenging part of the game is trying to defeat the scorpion king in the last level. After you beat the game, you are treated to a scrolling text. No neat CGI animations or even footage from the movie to watch at the end of the game. Its very sad the way this game came out. It had so much potential to be a very good PS2 game but I guess happy hour at the pub was far more important to the British developers of this game as they threw this beta trash out to us to chew on.

I played this game for hours and it amazed me with it's graphics.
the game play was chopy but so are all games when you first play them.I got used to them and started a great adveture. The back grounds where intresting with hyrogliphics.With a RPG like play it set the tone for good play. Like the movie it had things that you'd had'ent seen before.If your an RPG gamer you might enjoy it and for mummy fans you'll love it.Over all it was a well rouned game with alot of poential.

The mummy is back and okay

I find this game to be a difficult but not hard game.I love the whole story plot.Also personally I prefer movie based games (except spyro, crash bandicoot). But the graphics really stink and the movie ones do to.

I'd like to point out that on buying this game for my son aged 12 he was very upset that he completed it within 3 hours. I was most shocked that I bought him such a short-lived game. He has asked me to write a review of the Mummy Returns warning other people that there is not a lot of game play elements in this title. I now have taken it back to the store for a replacement game that will keep him more occupied at least for a couple of days.
