Man. I had no idea what Primal would be like when I first purchased it. In fact, I bought it on a whim from EB games and boy, am I glad I did!
Let me start by giving a brief summory of the game:

Jen Tate, our protagonist, has a bad encouter with a being from another world, who happens to wisk away the love of her life and puts her on her death bed.
Suddenly, Jen wakes up ( so it seems..) and is greeted by another odd creature: a gargoyle, that in my opinion is one of the best characters of all time! She gets told that the world(s) need her help to stop an evil plan that is shifting the balance. And then, Jen embarks her quest, side kick alongside her.
The graffics and voice overs are top notch, and the worlds you discover and play in are phenomenal. I mean, if you are like me and appreciate a world that one can interact in and that has a ton of detail, you will love this game!
Plus, similarly to Bloodrayne, Jen has some killer femme fatale moves that she gets.
Oh, and I forgot to mention: she morphes into whatever creature the world she enters is occupied by.
Please, please buy this game and play it. It deserves all of the credit it can get, as so frequently games of this caliber are overshadowed by well-known ones that are highly publicized.
Buy this one and Beyond Good and Evil and you will play the two top games on my list!

glitch galore

I was really having fun with this game. The graphics are pretty good and it kept me going, trying to figure out where to go and what to do. It gets sort of tedious after awhile having to go back and forth and fighting is sort of dull, but I did enjoy playing it. I started running into glitches once I got into the second world. I hade to restart once because for some reason I got stuck in some "nowhere zone" with no way out. Then right after I fight the boss and save, I go to the top of this tower where only the other character "scree" can get to. The only problem is, I cannot select him no matter what I do. So needless to say, I've come all this way for nothing so I am very disapointed indeed.

Amazing game, but with a few glitches

I LOVE this game!!! I believe Primal is unlike any other game I have ever played. An avid fan of survival horror/adventure games, to me this game gets almost 5 stars...and that's only because I experienced a couple glitches. I must admit one of them in the third realm had me stuck for months, and I had to use a cheat code to get through one particular door. But other than that, it was beautifully designed and written. I just wish they would release a Primal 2!

Primal: A watered-down Kain

Folks, if you were going to purchase Primal to fill that adventure/exploration gap in your PS2 life, save your time and money. While Primal did add some interesting twists on explorative/gothic gameplay, it still falls short of being a title worthy of hard earned cash. Interesting and often beautiful environments are a plus here... but the figthing system is lame and repetitve, and the puzzles hardly merit mention. There is no sense of addictive fun or excitement in Primal. - The stop and start brawls with easy-to-kill monsters gets old really fast. This game is mostly comprised of clever cut-scenes and too much walking around. ...

Finally.........

Finally a good decent game that can keep just about anybodys interest untill the end.Not to many games like these any more.And to think I got this game like perfect for only 7.99. But I wonder why this game is rated m, its not like theres much if any violence or blood.Its mostly a mystery game where you run around looking for hidden rooms and solving mysteries as the girl or gargoyal.....I personally like the gargoyal .I highly reccomend it.

You will enjoy this game

Play this game and beat it, you wont be dissappointed. At the time this cart came out, not many games were into plots or design or music, but this game excels in all of those. Yes it is a bit easy to defeat, but it is worth playing. The main characters have awesome voice overs and dialogue. The female protagonist is played by no other than Heidi Hudson Leick who played Callisto in Xena! If you enjoy Ghosthunter, you will enjoy this one.

I love this game!!!!!

Primal is one of the best games ever!! the graphics are great and the story is interesting. I've played this game like 7 times and never got bored! I have to say it's still my most favorite game. You wouldn't be wasting your money if you're thinking about buying it. It's worth every penny! Oh and if your stuck on a hard enemy or keep dieing then heres something helpful: the invincibilty code is MONSTROUS hold down R1 R2 L1 L2 for like 7 seconds and a cheat box will appear. hold down x when your looking for the right letter and when your done press square to activate the cheat. then triangle to exit the cheat box. you have to re-enter the cheat after you've quit playing.

Primal the new kick-but game of the generation!

This game is sooo good I couldn't put it down. The graphics and the movies are the best I have ever seen. If you liked medevil and medevil 2 on playstation one then this is a game for you. If you don't buy this now then you are crazy. The only part that I thought could be better is the water world, while swimming the control was a little hard but once you get used to it you can enjoy things just great. The puzzles can be really hard sometimes. I do recommend getting a walkthrough to help you navigate through the game. It is a very bloody game so I wouldn't get it for kids.

It is not a real long game. There are 4 different worlds to complete and the final boss. Without a walkthrough it might take you longer but I had it complete in about 10 days. I still think that this is the BEST GAME EVER!!!!!!!!!!

Go ahead and get it now!!!!!!!

Best Game Ever
