This game is good.If you can't figure something out, you can go do something else. You can earn new abillitys as you go on, catch enimies and sell them, and collect scarbs. Good graphics to.

A really fun platformer

I really like the concept of this game. Being able to play two separate characters who never really interact, but are in the same storyline, is incredibly creative and fun. The puzzles that were required to advance the game weren't too overly difficult, and when you take into account the types of things that can happen to the mummy (being electrified, on fire, smooshed) it can actually be quite funny. This game was highly enjoyable and I would definitely replay it.

A nice surprise!

One day i turned on my computer, opened the internet and went to amazon to navigate a while and at the front page there was this game recommended to me, i thought it was a game for kids but i saw that the price was only 9 bucks, not much if you've paid 50 bucks for other games. Well, look at the surprise, wow, the game is just great, incredible detailed graphics, great sound, excellent storyline, well this one is a winner.

If you like games like ratchet and clank and Jak, this is your game.

I can tell you that the graphics are incredibly good.

Amazing Game!

This is one of the best PlayStation Games I have played in a long time. The graphics are beautiful, the characters are really cool, and the gameplay is excellent! There are two different characters that you alternate playing. Sometimes you fight monsters and sometimes you just explore and figure out neat puzzles. The storyline is absorbing too. The only possible quibble I can think of concerning `Sphinx` is that there is dialogue you have to read because the characters don`t talk themselves. But don`t let that dissuade you from purchasing this fantastic game! One last thing: the only reason it is rated `T` for Teen is because of some fantasy violence (but no blood or gore) and scary situations that might frighten the younger crowd. In other words, no swearing or other bad stuff.

Pretty good game

This game is pretty cool. It has some hard puzzles that you have to solve. The only think I don't like about this game is the characters don't have their own voices like in FFX or other games. Being a new game, the creators of the game should have thought about this, it would have made the game even better

Loved it!

My daughter and I played the game as a team...I got to be the mummy. It was fun, not too difficult and the graphics and cutaways were pretty cool. A great way to spend a few saturday afternoons.

Shynx and the Cursed Mummy is a very fun, yet challenging game. Not to mention funny.

Romping through Ancient Egypt and re-killing mummies, always geta a little tiresome, so the Mummy is thrown in there for a little spice; the icing on the cake, if you will.The mummy is very funny, not to mention Clumsy.

Sphynx is the ultimate hero, tall dark and deadly. This game is so much fun. THQ you've mad a huge hit.

This game is so challenging, it's full of puzzles, you have to open doors and stuff to fight a huge zombe in the end.

Overview:

Fun- 10/10 A lot of Fun, very funny.

Gameplay- 10/10 Just right, controls aren't too simple, arent too hard

Difficulty- 11/10 It's hard to conquer te leve.

Graphics- 10/10 Great Graphics

Overally: 41/40

This game is more than perfect, it's the right amount of challenge and adventure mixed with the right amount of mind-games and comedy. This game is a must for you're christmas stocking. Buy or Rent this game, it's worth every penny and worth every minute played. This game is TOO much fun to play, you need this game.

All those parents out there shopping for their kids for christmas, check out these games too, (Metal Arms: Glitch in the System, Rachet and Clank: Going Commando, Rachet and Clank (the first one) Jak2, Tak and the power of JuJu.)

Very cool puzzle solving, but a few small irritations...

Very cool game! Starts very slow, but then grows on you as you go. Lots of puzzle solving, so if this is your thing, you'll probably like this game. Now, the irritating parts about the game: 1. "Loading, loading, loading...", numerous, slow loading points between transitions, 2. No autosave, and no way to save at arbitrary points -- many times must exit sub-world and run back to save point..very inconvenient, 3. annoying slow captions rather than voice-over...not a big deal, but would be nice if could either accelerate or skip over dialogue, especially ones you've already seen about 10 times!

A fun game

there is really nothing at all wrong with this game. i would have given it 5 stars, but i'm saving that incase someone ever puts out a perfect game. if i had to complain about anything in regards to sphinx, it would be that it's a little on the easy side, but then, if you drink a lot of beer while playing it like i do, it will make some of the puzzle solving a bit more challenging. i was pretty drunk during a lot of it, and so some levels seemed kind of hard, but then the next day it would seem kind of easy again. overall, a lot of fun. a lot of people say there is little replay value, but i just beat the game last week and i'm already looking forward to playing it again. if you like to kill knivescats with swords and capture slim burbles, you'll really like this experience, because you'll be doing a lot of it. be sure to save a lot of scarabs and buy yourself 2 rats at the monster store, too. and if you have trouble finding the 5th herb, try looking near the canal, up by the swinging rope. trouble with the obstacle course? don't give up!! it's the only way to get the goofy lizard. this game will have you up late drinking and yelling at the tv all night long.
