A Sleeper Hit That Will Never See A Sequel

VEXX is a great a game. It rivals any of the action/adventure platform mascots to Jak/Sly/ & Mario. Unfortunately this 4 year old game that came out back in 2002 didn't seem to receive the attention it deserved. No game is ever perfect and this game has its minor flaws. It's also beautifully constructed & there are other games that came out the same year & their visuals never looked as beautiful as this game. Give it a try. At this point it's most likely under 20 bucks and a few retailers still carry this title. It's such a shame and most likely Akklaim Studios won't be making a sequel to this game. Give it a try & you will love it as much as I do.

Vexx...something I thought I would not like!!!!!

I almost gave this game four stars, but I thought that it deserved five for it's originality. I just got Vexx, I was concerned that it would be a little to much like mario 64. However, I think it stands of it's own two feet. It has original enemies, worlds, and Vexx is a very intresting charachter. I love this game.

Vexx is the new art style!

While many people look at Vexx in wonder saying to themselves, "Why did I buy this game? The storyline makes no sense..." they ultimately miss out on an adventure that may even change the way you see video games today! Vexx is by far one of the best games ever to hit stores.

Reasons:
1) Vexx is a fantasy game in which you collect energy rich wraith hearts to help abolish the "evil that is a king" who enslaved all of Vexx's people. This game is full of fun right to the very end with a storyline that carries throughout the whole story!

2) The scenery in this game is magnificent, filled with monsters that actually react to what you do, and bosses that get angrier as the game progresses. Every bit of this game (walls, ground, extras, spells, and even you!) have the utmost detail available for a gamecube game. Trust me when I say, you'll be amazed!

3) The bosses in Vexx grow exponentially harder as the game goes on, so even long time gamers and Vexx fans will have a hard time re-beating the same one! The levels are large enough where you can discover things you didn't notice before!

4) Levels in Vexx vary greatly from a tall mountainous region to hidden mayan pyramids! You'll find your self facing giant man-eating dogs in a house bigger than you can imagine, and climbing remains of something that once lived. After all is said and done, you'll be thrilled to find out that ea. level has newer, stronger monsters with double the entertainment as the last ones! Ea. Level has an obstacle course in which takes a long time and will challenge any gamer, best I've seen in any game.

5) Finally, this games controls are perfect, its easy to maneuver Vexx through the many obstacles that block your path! The fighting moves can be made into many different combos and ea. are different according to the enemy! The camera angle works perfectly fine. As for me, I've had only a few hassles with the camera before, which only act up once you reach the last level. Trust me you won't get overly angered by it as others say they do.

Now, doesn't this make this game sound fantastic? I didn't lie a bit. I recommend Vexx to anyone anywhere as a rental or as a buy. You won't be disappointed!

Bad Things:

1- last Boss in Nearly Impossible
2- Camera (not bad really) you decide on this.
3- Only two "upgrades" so vexx never changes really. But I don't mind.

A Dissapointment

Okay, Here goes. This is a desent game, with solid fun gameplay, and if your one those people who skip though all the cutscenes cause you just want to play and don't care about a story or stuff like that you'll love this game. Overall this game is slightly above average. It's a bit like "Jak and Jaxter + Eternal Darkness - plot - movies". I've gotta go now, to play something better, like StarWars CloneWars.

This game is great! The second I heard of it, I wanted it because it sounded cool... but this game is better than it could be explained. U should buy it here, too, at Amazon because I was searching for almost 2 days trying to find a better price than here, and I couldn't! This game also has great graphics and plot. The game starts where your grandpa was killed by evil invaders of your planet, then u find out that u can gain power to destroy them so that u can hav your peaceful planet back. Like most games under the same genre, u r supposed to collect something that progresses u thru the game in order to beat it. In this case, they are "wraith hearts". If u have played "Jak and Daxtar" for PS2 & liked it, you will like this game. They are similair in the aspect that u r a made up creature trying to save your land by going to other strange and mysterious areas and that there are multiple attack types, such as slashing, shooting, smashing, etc. It is a good game because it can occupy time for u vey well. I also think it is a challenging game, though I am not an "expert gamer". The reason why I think it is challenging is because for each level there are seven hearts to obtain, each having a riddle to solve in the start menu before u can get them. And don't think u can just get them without the riddles and that they are dumb, because sometimes u would have no clue where the hearts could possibly be hidden, or u see it hovering somewhere but u can't get it the way u think u can. Again I just want to say that this game is fun all the way thru and that if your looking for a challenge, this is it. Oh, and if u are wondering why I took a star off, its because some parts of the game take too long and are boring. The rest is fun though.

"AWESOME"

This is a good game.... good world design, good graffics, but best of all is the aggressive undertones... Vexx is like Mario meets Wolverine... I love the claws, the look and the attitude.

All things concidered though... Amazon is asking $60 Canadian and I got this game at Zellers for $20 Canadian plus tax.
