Very good gameplay.Controls-- fluid.Graphics A-ok. I just can't say the game was too exciting though. Too much walking around. Although if you like Tomb Raider. (which I did not,);Sorry crazy tomb-raider like people. ..GO for it. My pick for best X-box game of the last couple weeks is Medal of Honor. Awesome game, I can't say enuf. Advice. Toke a few hits on a "tobacco pipe," for some excitement. Nuff said. Not me cup o' tea.

Questionable?

It could have been a better game, though some levels were real fun. Sound became real choppy and Indy couldn't be controlled well when alot of action was happening in the game, that was very disappointing, at the least distracting. Rent first.

DEMO looks pretty good...

Although the Official Xbox Magazine demo looks pretty good, that's all it is, a demo. The controls are easy to master and game-play is top-notch. However, the graphics are only slightly above average. Again, it's a demo and the developers have promised that the final version will be considerably better. Several websites have offered reviews of the final version and all have been quite good. If you want to play the demo, pick up OXM March, 2003 Issue #16.

Great, just what I've been waiting for!!!

This is a great game. I like all the moves and the weapons. You can fight using several hand to hand technics. I've just gotten the game recently so I haven't been all the way through but I've gone throug 3 main stages and so far it has been very challenging, but not rediculously imposible. I got the Prima strategy guide with it and it is very useful. Most of the stuff is fun to figure out without it, but there are a few things that probably couldn't be found without it. What I really like is that you don't have to save your game after each level like in some games. Once you finish a level it automatically saves and most levels aren't real long. The 3rd person viewing is great. You can get pretty good overhead views when you need to look over the edge of a buiding or cliff. I'm sure you'd have to be an Indiana Jones fan to appreciate this game, but I don't know anyone who isn't a fan. The music is real good and plays apropriatly for the situations, if you like that sort of thing. Makes it seem movie-like. If I had to say anything that I do not particularly like is all the underwater stuff. It's not real bad, there is just more of it than I care for.
If you love Indy, get it, you'll love it. If you just like action adenture games in general, that's what it is.
Great game!!!

FUN

THE OTHER REVIEWERS SEEM TO BE ON TRACK. YOU MAY HAVE TO PLAY SOME LEVELS A COUPLE OF TIMES, AND AN IN-GAME SAVE WOULD BE NICE. OVERALL, THIS GAME WAS FUN...THE CONTROLS WERE EASY TO GET A GRASP ON, AND THE GAME PRESENTED ENOUGH CHALLENGE WITHOUT BEING A BREEZE. THERE WERE A FEW ROUNDS WHERE THE FORMAT WOULD CHANGE AND I WOULD GET IRRITATED. AFTER PLAYING SEVEN ROUNDS WITH ONE CAMERA ANGLE IT IS HARD TO SUDDENLY WORK WITH ANOTHER FOR ONE ROUND.
THIS GAME HAS GOOD SOUND AND GRAPHICS AND PAYS SPECIAL ATTENTION TO DETAILS. LEVELS ARE GUARDED BY BOSSES, WHICH I THOUGH WAS A LITTLE SILLY, AND DIDN'T FIT WITH THE INDY THEME, BUT THIS GAME IS A BLAST.

Pretty cool BUT...

The ending was SO disappointing after all that great action. I really wanted a bigger ending after all that I went through. Collecting all the artifacts was fun but I feel like I should have gotten a bit more...maybe an extra level or something. The lack of midgame saves was EXTREMELY frustrating, but I did LOVE the gameplay. Jumping, fighting, whipping, swimming, flying, shooting-it was all awesome and some of the ways to beat the bad guys were really cool. I just loved knocking Nazis over the ledges by throwing bottles at them-one toss and they fly over the edge! Hilarious. I also avoided a nasty underwater Nazi fight by tossing a couple of grenades in the water where they were. TRES COOL! If you don't feel like trying to outswim the crocs in the first level (except for one certain one-you'll see when you play.), you can just whip out your ole' machete and fillet the little buggers-way fun! All in all, it was a pretty good game but the lack of saves and the ending really took a lot of the joy out of it for me.

Like always, I check out my games' reviews. Then I buy it. I always think, "Is this worth the money becuase it is a lot of money?" This is the best hand to hand combat game I have ever played and the funest. (I play a lot of action games) It is a great adventure/action game in my in my opinion. In the beginning it teaches you all kinds of moves and starts you off easy. Then it goes to actually thinking like Indiana Jones. But it doesn't drive you crazy until you pull your hair out. It is a big game and I would recommend buying it. (I did buy it and it is awesome!)

Good concept and storyline

This game has a good concpet and storyline, and it plays better than Tombraider, since I am a fan of Indy. The only reason it did not get a 5 star is that it is BUGGY. It seemed it was rushed out of production with very little QC. The perspective sometimes would not be correct, and Indy could walk through walls, or being shot through walls. They could do a bit better on the graphics, since there are still quite a few polygons here and there. Overall it is easy to get started without reading the manual and the controls are easy to remeber and learn. I bought this along with Metal Gear Solid II and I found myself playing this more than the MGSII.

THis game is the best![.]

i just got the game and man! i'm speechless! the graphics are so freaking good, it's like being in the game alongside Indy!
now let me tell you one thing: the hand to hand combat is a blast!! i just love to just go at the villains and just punch and kick the hell out of them. The moves are so realistic, my jaws just dropped. i was waiting for that game for a very long time and am really not disappointed with it at all!
