I purchased this for my 14 yr. son, he has all the previous MediEvil games. This one is awesome, he can't put it down. The graphics are amazing and the game is challenging which is great.

Medievil madness!!

Playing this game takes a person back to the old PS1 version. If you have played the PS1 version and loved it like I do, and are left wanting more, then here is your answer.(Medievil 2 doesn't count, it sucked) This game covers the old with many new twists and turns. Some levels were deleted but other new ones were added. There is a new character or two, but sadly there are a few missing. If you hope to see the maze level you will be dissapointed, but you will see a carnival with many irritating and awesome mini games. Voice overs are changed, and the new gargoyles sound Ridiculous, but not bad enough to take a star away. All in all if you like Medievil for PS1 you are gonna like this one.

awesome =)

This game is great for the psp! The basics of this game are real easy to master, but combat is kinda hard due to powerful enemy attacks and poor defense. I just use cheat codes like press start and hold the R button while pressing down, up, square, triangle, triangle, circle, down, up, square, triangle. This saves you the trouble of your shield breaking. A new option should appear on the pause menu in any level; gain all weapons and immortality. This also affects your shield (only corn beasts in scarecrow field can take it away if you try to block them). Shields defend you, but can only take so much damage. Shields can be repaired for some cash... The graphics are awesome(duh!!it's the psp) fighting is more intense without any cheat codes, but I think it's more fun just to toy with them by using different weapons =P! There are many weapons which are all unlocked with the cheat code I told you about. Here are all of them if you're picky about weapon selection: one-handed weapons which can be used with a shield, wooden sword, short sword(not that short), hero's sword, club, throwing daggers, 250 daggers, battle axe, spear 30(like a javelin), lightning (magic), chicken drumstick 30; And the two handed weapons (shields can not be equipped) long sword(huge!!!!), magic sword(huge and fat), war hammer, woden's brand(sword and best melee weapon), crossbow 200 bolts(crossbow ammo), hero's crossbow 200 bolts, longbow 200 arrows, flaming long bow 100, flaming arrows(the bow is not on fire..), magic longbow, 50 magic arrows. Is that enough weapons for you?!?! Another weapon is your skeleton arm. There are three types of shields: bronze shield, silver shield, gold shield. There are a good variety of enemies. The levels are all different in there own way. Please note this game's action is partly taken away by a poor screen and problem solving in some levels. I suggest walkthroughs online such as the scarecrow field -- a retarded level that shouldn't have been put into the game!!! They have good jokes in this game, good slightly creepy music(you are a dead hero fighting zombies and other monsters) and great looking backgrounds. Overall, this is a fun game for kids around 8+ because of the problem based levels. The enemies are there merely to add some skill into the game. It's worth paying $[...]!

not the greatest game to buy

for christmas my parents bought me this game, of coarse iwas addicted to it for about 2 weeks. But soon after it didn't get very fun. It was just the same old story, fight and kill, fight and kill.
Personally, i think that you should not waste your money on this game, buy tekken,daxter, fifa, or need for speed.

Great Humorous Fun

Medieval Resurrection for the PSP lets you play the hero Dan, now resurrected 100 years later to take on a hoard of zombies. It's cartoony rather than scary, and has a nice witty theme.

There's a great deal of humor in this story. It's not the usual bloody-zombies-with-chainsaw type of mature title. Instead, you're a rather cute zombie, out to save the universe from an evil wizard who has been working on his diabolical laughter. The game pokes fun at all of the standard take-on-the-baddies type of storyline.

The graphics are quite nice, with a three-D world of skeletons, ogres, rolling balls, rippling rivers and other dungeony areas to wander around. You don't have to worry about complex key combinations here. You bash the skeleton with a sword. Maybe you bash the skeleton with a club. Sometimes you charge full speed into the skeleton.

I found the three-Dness a bit much sometimes when you were trying to keep track of three enemies who had surrounded you, turning to take down the one that was half dead. The game does try to auto target for you and provide little glowing dots to help you keep on track. It probably depends on your gaming style if you enjoy the fast-swirl of the world, or whether you prefer something a little more stationary a la most Mario world platformers.

The sound was good - usually you don't have much demand for high quality, poignant sound in a platformer but on the other hand it wasn't an awful soundtrack that I hated.

Well recommended!

Worth Buying

Video games are always a tough call if you've never rented or had a friend let you play theirs before buying. It can be very subjective and someone that gives it 5 stars may be a 2 star game to you. With Medievil I'll list some good and bad and hopefully you will see something that will help you decide.

The Good:

The game is very witty. Many of the cut scenes and comments are laugh out loud funny. The story line is entertaining and gets you involved right from the start.

The graphics are excellent. No choppy movements, and the action is smooth with no long load times. Rich colors, interesting scenery and it's easy to get a handle on the controls. As for the sound effects, the voices are great, the music is well done and the battle effects are solid and not overdone.

The not so good:

Not much replay value. One you beat it, there is not much reason to go back in and do it again. The mini games are fun, and if you play it after you complete it, will most likely be those, not the main game. Sometimes the camera angles are akward, and you can't control looking up/down and left/right like other games.

Overall, I give 4 stars due to the games that are clearly a notch above, such as Siphon Filter and Grand Theft Auto Liberty City. I had a good time playing it, took my time and made it worthwhile.

Really good, Really funny, Really fun.

I've played medievil on Playstation, But Medievil Resurrection is the perfect game for the psp, I do not remember any humor of medievil one, but in this medievil, The humor is off the scale! I love the genie in Dan's head! They also changed the statue guys, in the first one, they were supposed to be scary...but in this one...It's kinda cool looking and cute.

Anyways, with the better graphics, cool puzzles, and ripping the sombies arms and legs off...This game is the most extreme!!

Frickin SWEET!!!

This game is a fun game. I have 3 games for the PSP and i liked this one the Best. You can only get most of the weapons from the hall of fame and when you get the chalice and kill the enemies up to 100%. It is a fun game and is funny. But the game is a little too easy. Maybe it is because I have the best weapon. It can keep you playing for up to 5 hours with the mini games to get Woden's Brand. Overall it is fun and i would really recommend it.

Great First Game

With it's dazzling graphics, entertaining gameplay, and playful tone, MediEvil Resurrection easily poises itself as a great first game to pick up for your PSP. From the moment the menu launched, I fell in love with this game. The graphics are superbly done, and the characters and environments are great. The game doesn't take itself too seriously, and there is great, playful banter between the characters.

The problems do emerge in the form of poor target tracking with ranged weapons, as well as odd camera angles (at very inoportune times). Even with these setbacks, the game is not that difficult, and can be enjoyed with a minimal amount of frustration.

The Teen rating is accurate, as the game does have some very minor language, as well as the violent nature. It is not, however, a graphic bloodfest like some of the games out there. Rather, it's level of action is presented in a comedic manner. Most parents can probably feel quite comfortable letting their teen play this game.

In short, I felt like this was an outstanding game. While the camera does pose its problems at times, it in no way warrants some of the lower review ratings that can be found on the internet. I would recommend this game to kids of most ages as one to pick up and enjoy.
