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.

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.

Awsome

The Mummy Returns.......With the (Worst) PS2 Game Yet!

I only rented this game, and I brought it back the same night! I spent six bucks only and feel ripped off! The characters have horrible controls, move clunkily, do not jump, Etc. It feels like you're steering a vehicle, not a character! Granted, as Imhotep, stealing the soul of an enemy is kind of cool at first, but afterwords, watching the same exact animation over and over again is just boring. Playing as Rick, the voice acting sounds like a drunken mental patient doing an imitation of Brendan Frasier, and the whole level you are trying to save your annoying British kid (personally, I'm glad the annoying twerp fell down the hole, and had no incentive to go after him). Either person you play as, the level design is horrible, each room looks the same, so you have no points of reference. The bad guys look all the same, and the AI is so poor that you can just run past them, especially since with the horrible controls you end up almost dying trying to steer your character at them. Obviously the creators decided that they could cash in with a good movie license, and didn't give a second thought to making a game people would be able to even tolerate. Selling a game like this to poor unsuspecting people should be a crime! Avoid this like the plague, please! Maybe they'll think twice next time!

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.

great

Ok, this is the WORST game I've ever played. The ontrols handle like a shopping cart with three wheels missing and the graphics are rather scribbly at times. The story isn't even intruiging, if there even is one hidden in the shadows, and the option that you can be good or bad scarcely helps. Overall, it stinks, so don't buy it, don't play it, or even better, never even think about it again. If you like these kinds of games, try Batman Vengeance or Rayman Revolution.

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.

This game rocks
