Yet, the bad reviews are bad, but if you ask me, that is, I think the game is great and you should ignore the bad reviews. The game is actully outstanding, phhonemol peice of art. So the game is great because you get to go on real rides at the universal studios theme park in florida. The rides are: E.T, Jaws, The wild, wild west stunt show, Jurassic park river adventure, WaterWorld, Bactdraft and Back to the future: The ride. Along the way, there are quizzes, resturants you can eat at, shops, even parades. There's a Fastpass in this game, though the game you cannot use an inventatory. But sometimes, the fastpass dosen't work for some attractions (like backdraft, the wild, wild west stunt show) Some of the rides with Fastpasses are: Jaws, E.T., Jurassic Park river adventure and back to the future. Tip: The fastpasses in this game are called express passes. You can even talk to guests, name your character, even choose what it looks like. Ignore the bad reveiws and have fun at universal studios.

The horror

I remember I got this on my birthday. I looked down on gift, self-conscious of my disappointment. So of course I had to play it. In this game, you control a deformed child in Universal Studios. Mysteriously, the park only contains white tourists, which leads me to believe there's a secret underground klan faction somewhere in Universal Studios. (There's some strange fruit growing near the Jaws lake...) Hours of picking up trash and tedious mapping ensue, and you're occasionally treated to a rejected Chuck E. Cheese minigame, only with less smeared pizza and more crappy video game. Sometimes you'll encounter Woody Woodpecker, who apparently vacantly walks around in several park locations at once. He innocently chirps, "I'll peck out your SOUL," as he backhands you for your precious tickets, no doubt to buy illegitimate substances to sell to Cracky Cracksniffer.

Universal Studios Theme Park Adventure

I can't believe that I found this game at Gamestop. Considering I've been to Universal Studos theme park in Florida, I would say that the game is a great souvenier, and brings back the wonderful memories of being in the park, without wearing out your feet. I especially found the Jurassic Park game very challenging and exciting. I wonder if would be very obvious if Nintendo came up with other theme park adventure games such as Disney World, Six Flags Great Adventure. Now that would be exciting.

i got this!!!!!!!!!!!

This game was one of the easiest games I have ever played. Took me less than 30 minutes to go through the entire park and beat every ride.
Why I hate this game so much?
Because the entire mapping system is OUTTA control. The map makes absolutely no sense. In some areas, the view is so bad, I can't even see myself. There is too less to do in this game. At least there could've been more rides, or more mini-objectives. Like recovering a lost item (like the cell phone) but more of those.

The games themselves were... alright. E.T. was realy easy and boring, you race along a singular straight path, moving through obsticles which are incredible easy to avoid.
Jaws was a pretty good game. Again, quite easy. And another thing I've noticed, I beat it without losing any parts, and NO RED STAMP! This made me mad, and just didn't want to play anymore.
Jurassic Park was the best game out of them all, it was long and somewhat challenging, after the second time and you got to know how to play it got way too easy.
W.W.W.W. was another ok game. Shoot some targets, always fun.
Waterworld...? A joke? Pretty lame joke might I add.
Backdraft was a horrible game. The controls are way out of line. The views make it even harder to control where you are going. It had a good story line, but the controls of the game just ruined it, and made it not fun.
BTTF was a pretty.. *cough*lame*cough* game. You race around for like less than 2 minutes, bashing another car. Just plain easy and boring.
Sadly the best part was the trivia. Although every question was wayy to hard. Like come on, who would know what was written on the piece of paper underneath the book in 'The Lost World'. No I'm just kidding, but thats what they seemed like.

I think that covers most of it, anyways. I really really disliked this game. But I still have it for another 5 days, so I guess I'll go play it again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What the heck is this???

I went to buy a GameCube game, didn't matter which one, ohh fatal mistake. I held this game in my hands along with other, FIFA 2002, and asked my dad "Dad, which game do you suggest me to buy?", what a lot of people don't know is that some parents don't know anything about videogames. My dad answered "Well son, I would suggest Universal Studios because of the Visual Effects". Of course he referred to the effects of the movies 'cause this crap doesn't have any graphics that are worth the $50 I payed for it. Damn it!! I played for 20 minutes 10 minutes later I was back in the store, in the Returning Line. Sadly I could return this thing and I try to give away but nobody wants it, so I guess this game will remain here to remind me of my stupidity back in the teenager days. My advice is DON'T BUY THE GAME, DON'T EVEN RENT IT because it will turn into your nightmare, and if you want yo get rid of it no one will want it even if you offer them some cash.

Yes, its as bad as the reviews say!

This game is CRAP!!! Literally. I cant believe this game was ever made! The person who made this piece of junk should play it as punishment! I can't believe Nintendo actually released this! Its like someone picked up a pile of dog crap and threw it at the wall and called it a game.

I love movies, love Universal Studios, but this game SUCKS!

-200 stars.

No, get away from me... NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

When you blow you hard earned dosh on this and begin to play it, you are given the chance to pick up rubbish...

Erm...

Yep, you read it right, you play dustman for the day and pick up litter.
Assuming you are not frantically searching for the reciept, you then get to ride on one of the amusments for a prize before going back to play litter pick up.

In short... THIS GAME SUCKS!!!
The graphics may look O.K, but it's this kind of game that gives Gamecube a bad name. This sould only be less fun if it squirted bleach in your eyes!

Avoid like poo on the pavement!

Stupid "Studios", Has No "Universal" Appeal

For the, hyperactive jackass, family member comes this overly obvious advertisement for "Universal Studios". The game seems to be made by the politcally correct manufacturing department at both Nintendo and "Universal", and it sucks, big time! The game's lesson is to teach young visitors of the park to put trash in its place and keep the park clean. Whats next "Universal"? A game that teaches park visitors when they sprinkle when they tinkle, to please neat and wipe the seat?! Or how about a game where players must wash there hands before returning to work!

As a young tourist, the player must hookup with Woody Woodpecker and after listening to his idiotic directions, must go thru the park, picking up trash to gain points, then trying to get into all the main attractions (mini-games) before the park closes.

First off, since when is picking up trash fun?!? And on vacation no less!! The other people, that walk thru the park, are useless, giving no clues or hints at all. The mini-games suck... every... single... one of them. I have never seen a decent game released from any "Universal" film, that includes "Back to the Future", "Jaws", "E.T.", and "The Mummy". The graphics are in the Japanimation style - I thought I was going to vomit dayglow colors after an hour of gameplay (the colors are so distracting, my eyes hurt after awhile). This game is pure crap & totally assinine. If Universal" is proud of this game, then they should really be ashamed of themselves. An absolute waste of one's time.

Simply Hellish

Should you ever find yourself entering the gates of Hell, Satan will personally hand you a copy of this GC turd. Why? Because playing this ultra-boring video "game" is worse than having a spike driven through your pancreas. The designers of this stinker should be forced to play it for 24 hours. The game play is as exciting as watching flies mate. Your pathetic missions are sprinkled with tedious trash-picking and disturbing mini-games. In fact, when you throw a piece of trash away, the boy exclaims with delight, "This is FUN!" It's as if they need to tell you that you are actually enjoying the game. Of course, you are not. You are figuring out ways to get your money returned while holding back the tears. Be afraid. Be very afraid... And bored out of your mind.
