This is one of those games you cant pass up. You play as a an alien sent to DESTROY ALL HUMANS! You have cool mind powers, like hypnotizing people into doing the chicken dance. Your weapons are awesome like the zap-o-matic or the anal probe. Plus you can ride in your UFO and burn buildings to the ground! The enemies are fun to fight (and to read their minds).The setting is in the 50's so you here some funny things. But the bad part is it can get boring, I mean just running and zapping Overall I give this game a FOUR OUT OF FIVE.

Destroy All Humans is a delightfully fun, albeit repetitive game that clearly takes a few pages from the script of "Mars Attacks," complete with a Jack Nicholson impression for the main character's voice.

The goal of this game is to send you romping across 1960's USA, attempting to eliminate the vile infestation of humans from the surface of planet Earth. The humans, you see, contain vital nutrients in their brain stems. Your job is to harvest those brain stems while completing other various objectives. All the while, goofy humour is injected almost everywhere possible.

Gameplay is fairly straightforward, done in open-world style. "Levels" take place in various different arenas, ranging from a country fairground to sprawling urban settings. You mostly run around on foot to extract human grey matter and complete objectives, but you also have the ability to beam into your flying saucer and ray-gun humans and houses en masse. Apart from the main objectives, you can take part in a number of side activities like "Destroy a certain number of buildings within a time limit".

All-in-all this game provides enough amusement to make it worth the rental, but I strongly discourage purchase on the grounds that the novelty wears off fairly quickly. Folks may knock the game for its simplicity, but I don't believe that it ever promised more than what it is. This would be an ideal choice to rent when you need a good 8 or 10 hours of goofiness to fill the doldrums between big game releases.

Pros:
-Nutty, zany, "Mars Attacks" style humour
-Loveable characters
-Solid user interface

Cons:
-Very repetitive

I play this game with my 3 years old son (he loves aliens and laughs a lot with some unusual scenes). My 14 years old daughter do not understand what the people are 'thinking' or even saying during the game but she loves flying and shooting against the tanks, soldiers and agents. THQ made a really cool game where violence is not real (the blood is green) and you can enjoy it for many hours. It's a game, a good one!

Time to be disintegrated!

I thought that overall, this game was really fun, however can get a little bit old. I got this game at Christmas, and couldn't wait until I opened it. The first time I played it I couldn't help laughing out loud! It is the sickest, yet funniest game I have ever played. My dad hates video games, and he still enjoys watching this one. There are about three options you can do with this game. Play the campaign and go on missions, play mini-games after an area or city is conquered, or go back to your favorite city and do anything you want! The areas range from a little suburban farm, to a massive scale Capital City! Great freeroaming game. Oh yeah, you even get weapons. Add on to that with a destructive flying saucer and the ability to pick people up and throw them with your mental abilities, and you've got a great game! But remember, this game has some, but not much replay value.If THQ or whoever makes it makes a sequel, I beleive they could add just a little bit more to make it better.

funny and nice ideas... but not fun gameplay

i'll make it short. the gamespot reviewer said destroy all humans wasn't good for its gameplay, and he was right. the idea of say, abducting someone and sucking out their brain is really cool, but in execution, it's just boring. the game does have a great sense of humor though.

I'm no kid, but enjoy playing games on PS2. I normally buy used games, and the adage you get want you pay for holds true. This game is really fun without a whole lot of clues or puzzles to solve. It is even humorous, with the alien making smart comments about the humans.

I like all the smash and grab i can get and after reading reviews and hype about this game i decided to rent it. i have to say that i was pleasantly surprised in that the game actually lived up to it's hype. let me start out by saying that this game isn't intended to have awesome graphics, or an amazing storyline, or even beautiful dialogue. it's just good, clean (well, i'm not sure how clean ripping someone's brain out of their head through telekinesis is but...) fun.

The premise of this game is simple, in a spoof of the 60's b-movies and hysteria the "little green men" (who hate being called that when they're really gray) come to earth to take over. the reason given is that the martians have cloned themselves so many times that the gene pool is getting a bit shallow. so they decide to sweeten the pot, so to speak, with a bit of human DNA. your assignment as cryptosporidium, crypto for short, is to gather the appropriate amount of monkey, what he calls humans, DNA and eventually take over the world.

Having said that i would like to point out at this point that i really don't care about taking over the world. one of the best parts of this game is the semi-openendedness. though the missions are basically linear you can choose in which order you do them to begin with. the added bonus of being able to upgrade your guns, tk, and your saucer really add to the game. DNA is the name of the game and with enough you can purchase all the upgrades you want. not that there's many of them, but they're significant. the best part of the game, for me, was near the end when i'd gotten all of the upgrades. it's incredibly fun to pick up a tank with your mind and bash an uncooperating "majestic" (Herbert Hoover style CIA) agent to death. or to merely pick up the agent himself and fling (or repeatedly smash him) to his doom. for those of you that prefer "safer" forms of fun use the saucer's tractor beam to pick up said tank and transform it into a humongous ball-and-chain. however, the two most wickedly fun things are charging up the anal-probe gun before you shoot a person so that their head explodes, or simply tk'ing their brain out of their head. oh yeah. and there's some really funny dialogue if you take the time to listen.

Overall this game is really fun and has great replay value for a rainy day. loved it.

Rip-off

This game is basically Otto Matic in reverse! Want to blast aliens? Play Otto Matic!

Seriously, this game is an Otto Matic ripoff. Pangea should sue!
