Excellent! But a note to PS2 Owners...

This game was beyond excellent, I'm 32 and I love playing this. I've pulled it out at family gatherings and my cousins (ages 10-32) have a blast! Definately more challenging than Parappa, but also more fun in a lot of ways.
NOTE: For PS2 owners, buy a PS1 memory card, your PS2 will take it and you can only save PS1 games on a PS1 memory card. I usually keep one of each in the PS2 ports, since it doesn't matter where the card is to use it.

Fun, great game!

Great semi-sequel to Parappa. It developed on it. I loved the fact that you could play different versions of the songs as parappa, and that you could change the sounds of the guitar. The music in this one is great, I find myself humming it all the time. Out of all the Parappa series games, it has the greatest variety, and therefore the greatest replayability. Definately worth a look!

Well, ha ha ha...

... A lamb playing a guitar!(Not a swipe at another reviewer, honest). It held me and my cousin's interest for almost several hours. Its fun, challenging, the graphics(out-dated 2D) have a certain goofy appeal and the controls are good. Since I don't own a Playstation(A Nintendo player since I was 6, baby!) trying to watch the screen and hit buttons that I'm not familiar with was hard. But after awhile I got it. Only one level has a bad song and thats the one with the insane, midget pilot. Even though the songs aren't stuff I'd want to listen(some are so '80-ish and stupid), taking part in them is a lot of fun. Single player is fun, less fun than multi-player though. I wish there were some hidden stages or something along those lines, but still, its fun.

Can't you agree on SOMTHING?

Have you noticed that, while one person gives it 1 star and completed it in 1/2 hour, and one person spent weeks on it and gave 5? Well the answer is, this game is of limited appeal. If you're a musical fellow who loved parappa, found it quite hard, and is hungry for more, why not? If, however, you listen to the likes of Steps and Five, this game isn't for you.

What do I think? Well, the Graphic style is great, the music is reasonable and I can play it for hours. However,like most games, it ain't as good as the original.

If you like both Parappa and Um Jammer, see Vib Ribbon! The same guy, sense of humour, but with more......erm.......more. You get to play your own CD's and the disc music is......well, again, of limited appeal.

What happened here?

I was a big fan of Parappa the Rapper and I was seriously disappointed with this sequel. It's bad enough that you can beat it in 30 minutes, but what's worse is that you wouldn't want to! The music is just bad and that is inexcusable for a music game. Where are all the catchy tunes? I can't remember one line from this game, whereas I have all of Parappa the Rapper's songs memorized. It's missing those great lyrics found in Parappa like my favorite: "Sunny in my life, she's like a dice, I can't tell which way to turn 'till I spice!" Skip UmJammer and get Parappa.

A CLASSIC!

From the creator of PaRappa The Rapper comes Um Jammer Lammy! This morning, I was playing the demo on this JAMPACK disc I found in my house on my PS2. Once, I got a "COOL" Ranking on the Jetplane level. Planning to get a "COOL" Ranking on Chop-Chop Master Onion level now. Peace.

I would rent this game. It takes no skills what so ever to beat it. Maybe it just came naturally to me, or maybe I'm just to critical but this game is not worth buying. In my opinion this game would only appeal the the 8-11 age range and even then would they only play it once or twice.

The game manages to pull off the 2d style that parapa does quite well, while maintaing the cheesy but amusing songs.
