Don't know how, but rented this at Blockbuster a week earlier than the release date. I don't play much video games since I am not every good ate them. but this game is super fun. The game starts and after a short movie, you jump right in to an action pack game. It has a combination of everything: skateboarding, flying, exploring, save-the-love one, fighting monsters, puzzles, etc. It's taking me some time to play, but, again, I am not a very good gamer. I find it easy enough and challenging enough. Which makes it fun. Happy Gaming!

Non-stop Fun

I rented this game. I'm a 56 year old woman who loves her Playstation II. Normally, I'm not co-ordinated enough to do flying or racing. But this one is so much easier. It also makes you think. It's really an action advetnure. Very fun and enjoyable. Often I've missed several good television programs because I lost track of time playing this game.

Best Game I own

This is a really good game. Its easy for not all time players but not that easy. All throu her hair does anger me, stubid little deadlock ring.[ look whos talking, I can't even spell stubid.} It is also a really long game not one where you can finish in a weekend.

Great surprise!

I'm not a big fan of this type of game, 3D plataformer. I have to say that my prefered genre is survival horror (RE, Silent Hill, Fatal Frame, etc), but this game is so much fun, i can't denie. It reminded me a lot Rayman 2 and Nights: Into Dreams. The best aspect of this games is that it is very simple to play, although offer a good mix of gameplay. The story is very interesting, really catch the attention of the player. Graphics are also very good, bouth artistic and technically. Sound is good to, with good voice acting. If you like this type of game, don't hesitate, buy it right now, or at least rent it.

Great!

Finally a girly female lead character!
I like platform games (and Spyro is my favorite). I don't buy alot of games because I don't like the ones where you get stuck on a part or it gets too hard,etc.etc.; this one I rented. I obviously didn't complete it, but it is playable. The hard parts are parts you can work on and eventually get through and then they aren't hard anymore. I really like this game, but I constantly felt like I was getting lost even with the map. I will probably buy this game, but I definitly want a strategy guide! Is there one? When I rented it, there was no information out on it anywhere and I too rented it before the release date.
Also, the graphics are great and so are the voices. Everyone should try this out!

great game!

This game is really fun, though really hard, I played it 3 day (almost straight) and was able to beat it, though there were some time were I got frustrated, but I couldn't put the game down. It has a great story line, but I noticed alot of items simlar to another game, overall one of the best games I ever played.

Excellent! Would be 5 out of 5, but...

Excellent game! Would have given it 5 out of 5, but there are a few minor annoyances that kept me from doing so. However, these minor flaws did not keep me from having a lot of fun with this game. If you liked games such as Rayman 2 and Jak & Daxter (first one), you'll almost certainly like Kya. Ok, so here are the annoyances: (1) enemies often fall over edges or through walls and disappear -- need to come back later and fight again, (2) occasional frame shudder, (3) get stuck in some sub-levels with no way to back out to main game hub (mostly not a big deal, but sometimes a pain when stuck up against a tough adversary or tough level). Anyway, again, this game was great, all and all. Hope there is a sequel!

Life's too short for games like this

With blue dreads and a bladed bone hairpin, Kya makes her PS2 debut in somewhat less than spectacular fashion. Atari's newest heroine is very cute, but she doesn't have what it takes to beat down her real enemy-a market supersaturated with other platformers. The first indication of Kya's mediocrity is the slapped-together plot. The story revolves around Kya, who is sucked into a "mysterious world" along with her half-brother, Frank. When Frank is captured by Brazul (the evil ruler of the land), Kya suddenly becomes a master of weaponry, including her fists and her boomerang hairpin. Surprisingly, the depth of the combat in this game is one of its best assets, whether you delight in mashing the buttons indiscriminately or patiently practicing long strings of complicated combos. Kya's combat system offers a large library of fighting moves and adds new ones as Kya progresses through the game. Unfortunately, Kya is a very difficult game to play as the controls are not particularly intuitive and the camera seems to delight in going haywire during delicate jumping situations. In addition, there are several frustrating points in the game where Kya must flawlessly complete large sections or else face having to do them all over again. This is great for fans of tedium and frustration, but with so many other contenders to the throne, Kya's attractive graphics and plucky heroine are not really enough to place it on top of the platform pile.

FUNNNN and not only for girls but boys too

I bought this game out of impulse and didn't play it for a while, but when i did finally decide to pick it up and play I could not put it down, that very rarely happens to me. The story is fun and exciting , it kept me moving along and wanting to help. The controls are easy, despite the large amount of different moves available. The gameplay is excellent, every detail is beautiful. It was like playing many games all in one. I am hoping there will be a sequel!!!
