Beware system requirements

MHz, OS and RAM do not define the requirements for this game:

"Video card must be 32 MB or more, AGP capable, and contain one of these chipsets: NVIDIA GeForce 256 or greater; ATI Radeon or greater".

My son looked so forward to this but alas our NVIDIA TNT2 64 does not appear to be enough.

Beware.

Bionicle: What it lacks in addiction, it makes up for in graphics.

For one of the first times lego re-did a game, instead of making a sequal to it. The oringinal bionicle games were matoran adventures and bionicle the game (Same title, different gameplay).The new one is flashy, loud, easy at some times, hard at times, and dull. The music is nice, but extremly repetitive and gets annoying after, say, the five millionth time it's played. Yawn. And all the creature have unfair advantages, like laser tails, heat-seeking poision gas, flight, etc. Ouch. And the "bonus content" isn't anything to get excited over. It's mainly advertisements for toys that were released several months before. Just another marketing ploy. The game is virtually an interactive advertiesment for all of the bionicle sets from the bohrok to the matoran. Ack. Spending thirty bucks for an advertisement isn't exactly the tastiest cup of tea for gamers. If you like things that advertise toylines in a "fun" (Ugh) way get this game. If not, pass this game by and skip right on to lego Xtreme Stunts.

Will disappoint those with younger children

I got this game for my 7 yr old son who loves Bionicles. I was very disappointed with the fact that is is an extremely difficult game to play. Specifically, the control mechanisms are near impossible for a young child to master, let alone an adult. It me SEVERAL retries to get through a level. The most frustrating thing is that info messages pop up with hints numerous times during play, freezing the game until you acknowledge it by pressing return. You're ready to battle a creature, or make a jump for it and the game stops you to tell you how to do it. I thought Microsoft pop up bubbles were annoying but that practically sent me over the edge. I hope future patches give you a way to turn this junk off! Unless your child is a Playstation/Xbox junkie (usually 13+ yr olds), I don't recommend this game. It's sad really since the toys are marketed to 7+.

01/12/2004: Let me add (for those calling us liars) that this is a review based on our opinion. Also, I've used different controllers (Keyboard, mouse, Logitech wingman) with the same result although the Logitech controller works best. This game is not well thought out. Believe me, I want to like the game, but I doubt that the developer had the audience in mind (7+ age). Check reviews at pc gamer sites & you will see that I'm not the only one...By the way, the game does NOT follow the storyline of the movie...

Not fun at all

This game was purchased for my 10-year-old brother who loves Bionicle, but even he got sick of the game in less than 10 minutes. The control of the character is horrible; you can never get the character to go in the direction you want him to. It took us five minutes just to make him face forward.

I am an avid adventure gamer, and enjoy and have mastered many previous games, (Like The Mummy, Nancy Drew, etc) but I have yet to encounter a "problem-solving" situation in the Bionicle game. It's enough just to get your character over the first pit of lava. It's frustrating, and no one wants to even attempt to play anymore.

This game was not what I expected...

My mother, whom this account belongs to bought this game for me when it first came out. My brother and I had been die hard Bionicle fans since Lego first came out with the popular toys. We had been scrambling for information on the game ever since we saw the first preview on the internet. It looked like it would be like the game Lego was first going to put out for Bionicle, but for reasons unknown canceled the game to many people's dismay. But anyway, back to the game. When I first got it, I was so excited and started playing it immediatly. The first thing I realized was it was made by EA games. Most of the EA games we've owned have had terrible graphics and terrible story lines except for the LOTR game, which was fairly fun in my rating. The second thing was how difficult and confusing the controls were and were making it immposible to fight and never the less, move. That didnt stop us though, so we played it until the game began to get choppy due to our older computer and gaming card. Then we stoped playing it for about 2 years. This summer I picked it up again for reasons unknown to me and I worked my way through a whole lot easier after I configured the controls to my liking. But alas, the game's storyline and dialouge was no better then the begining and after I finished the final level, which by the way, threw the whole game down and made it seem like it wouldnt be amusing for even a 7 year old, and thought to myself, why did I waste my time on that? If Lego had used it's own game making tecniques, this game would have been about 20 times better. Also, there were so many facts about the Bionicle world that was wrong, I couldnt believe it and thought that Lego itself should have done a much better job editing and making this the game they said it would be.

FUN BUT HARD GAME

At first when I bought this game off the internet I figured it would be very fun so I started to play right away.The good things about this game is that it is fun and challenging, but some parts can be very hard like at the end of Gali Nuva you are trapped in this small little water chamber with bohrok that part is hardest to beat.The bad things are the controls are very weird and sometimes you can't point your bionicle in the direction you want him/her to.There is also another problem there are only three slots to save games in. I got stuck on the brown bionicle for about a month or two and couldnt figure anything out but once you figure out what you are supposed to do it gets fun. At the end of the game when you finally play with the seventh toa against makuta it is pretty easy if you are used too the graphics and controls.So once you get used to this game it is very,very,very,VERY fun.If you like bionicle legos this is definately the game for you.I definitley recommend this game for lego lovers.

This is a great game the people who say the controls are difficult are total liars! It's a fun game which follows the "Bionicle The Movie" story line the graphics are great and they have pop up bubbles to help you with some hard stuff in the game and they only pop-up a few times GET IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good for 10 year old

My son got this for Christmas. He loves Bionicle and was thrilled with this. It is hard, but he enjoyed the challenge of finding his way though the different levels.

Fun but with errors in Bionicle Facts

This game is fun but has horrible saving abilities, like, you beat a hard level, and save the game. Next time you get on the game, its not saved anymore. If you are a Bionicles fan, and know lots about the saga of Bionicle, you will find that this game has barely 20 facts about Bionicle correct. What is IN the game besides the facts and the saving is the environment and what you have to do in the game. This is what makes it worth getting. One of the incorrect facts is the names of some of the Bionicles.
