Ok, 3 months before this game came out I saw a playable demo of it. The sales person told me I had to check this out it was Mario meets Maximo but only darker. Of course, after seeing the demo I bought the game when it came out. Vexx is going to be a classic on the same level as the Crash Bandicoot series. Vexx actually looks a little like Sonic the HedgeHog but with razor sharp claws that makes him good for climbing walls.
The graphics are outstanding and you are in a true 3D environment. There is concern over the camera angles and movement but once you get use to the feel of it then it is really no big deal at all! There are about 10 level to the game but you have to collect all of the missing hearts to advance. There are about 10+ to each level. The really cool and helpful thing about this game is that it points you in the direction you need to go to collect the next heart you need. The one thing I cant stand is when a game just leaves you hanging in a 3D world and you have no clue which direction to head next. Vexx helps you out with signs and a little hint as to what is coming up next!
This game is really addicting and is good for kids, teens, and adults who love the platform genre of video games. I will continue to try and conquer this addition and wait for Vexx 2 to appear. As good as this first one is, there is no way they won't come back with a sequel!

I made the mistake of buying this game without renting it first. The screen shots made this game look awesome, but truley, the game fails in every aspect. First, the controls are very un-smooth and crude and handle inconsistently. The graphics are not stunning at all...there is a lack of detail to the environment and there is a lack of continuity when interacting with the environment when playing as Vexx especially when rock climbing. The game is also very annoying on several levels: Collecting stuff is usually fun - not in Vexx - in every level your goal is to collect these hearts by performing tasks or reaching certain places, or by collecting 100 orb things, anyways, I had about 97 orb things and then I saw a hidden heart piece - so I went to get that - the problem is that as soon as you get a new heart you start over at the beginning of the level with ZERO orb things! Brutally "un-fun"!...Plus the game is completely un-enchanting and unmagical like the great Zelda games. The enemies are so bland and the environments are as random and meaningless as the pointless storyline and tasks. I can't decide what is worse: Acclaim's Vexx or Turok Evolution...
kick ... Vexx

From what I have seen and heard this game is going to rule the PS2. The whole point of this game is to crack the skull of an a whole who killed your grandfather and went on his way feeling so good about himself that he killed him, well he killed the wrong grandfather, at the wrong time. i think this game is to going to kick .... When I first saw this game I thought it would be a spyro kind of game, but boy I was wrong. I cant find anything wrong with this game, I give it 5 stars.
Wow!

This game is incredibly AWSOME! The graphics it has to offer are mind blowing! And the storyline, as well as the gameplay, is brilliant! I highly recommend you buy Vexx for the PlayStation2.

Vexx is an awsome game with stunning graphics, great gameplay, and a unique storyline. The PS2 version of Vexx is WAY better than the GameCube and XBox versions. Vexx is a very fun game that I highly recommend you buy.

How can some people actually say that a fun game like Vexx fails?! Vexx is not only a fun game to play but its also very addictive. And this game has great graphics, sound, gameplay, and a wonderful storyline. Vexx is a very cool game title for the Sony PlayStation2.
A Great PS2 Game Title For The Average Gamer
