Ty is alot of fun! This is what a next generation title should look like. It takes a while to get used to the camera though. EA should make more games like this. If you own an Xbox you should buy this game. Sly Cooper is short of better, but this game is an all around good choice. Take it from me.

keeps them entertained

My 6 year old will sit and play this game for hours. It is a little hard for him at times but he enjoys it, and so does his step-dad. He wanted a game to play and this just happened to be the one we found. Terrific! They just need to put out more games for kids now! If you want a entertaining and non-violent type game for your kids...this is a good choice!

More of this, please!

For the platform game junkie or the casual gamer, Ty is unreal. Please make more games like this. OMG this was great!

I just got this game and its great looking! But the navigation is a bit hard for kids well at least my kid, and for me. I read one review saying that their 3yr old was playing this game. I would love to see that, cause if I had some trouble with Navigation I can't imagine a 3yr old.

But all in all its a great game, good music, good everything.

Just not as easy as some of these reviews say...

Good Luck and enjoy it!

'TY the Tasmanian Tiger' is not only the birth of this new hero, it is also his death. When a character debuts, there's certain rules you need to follow. EA sure thought 'TY' would be the next big thing. Instead they get nothing but a waste of plastic shoved in a DVD case. I have several gripes with everything related to this game. First of all the ad campaign which the game completely undoes. It pictures TY walking through a hospital bedroom where Spyro, Crash, and Sonic are in body casts, suggesting that TY is so tough that he can break every bone in these famous and much more loveable character's bodies. RULE 1: Make the character cute...FAILED. Secondly, the game itself is terrible. The camera could easily give you motion sickness. Many platformer games these days have camera problems but this is ridiculous. It's zoomed in way too close to TY and it insists on keeping itself stuck to him. The character designs are nice, but they move terribly. TY and his enemies are stiff and rigid and not when you take time to look, just obviously. The story is weak: "Find your family", wow. Haven't heard that one before. The controls are evil as well. You have to practically break off the control stick to move sometimes. RULE 2: Have a good game...FAILED. Finally, this just doesn't compare to any other platformer game because it is so subpar. Spyro, Crash, Sonic, Mario, Sly Cooper, and Blinx are all much more challenging, and fun. RULE 3: Be at least even with other games...FAILED. In conclusion, I think we know why the Tasmanian Tiger is extinct.

Good hearted fun

I want to start off by saying I am not a die hard gamer. I like a game that you can step into to kill a few hours and walk away from it for days without totally making it impossible to continue on the game. This game is great in that area. As has been mentioned the concepts in the game are not totally new. I find it is very similar to banjo kazooee (sp?). It even uses some music that is almost dead on like when you get a cog (puzzle piece in banjo).

I also like that it is not terribly difficult and yet there are things you have to figure out. I have to say I think they did a really good job stealing the ideas from other games. I really think anyone could find things they like about this game, as long as they aren't offended by plagerism.

My only real complaint would be that the movement and viewing can be a bit clunky at times. This game isn't the best of all time but I have no regrets buying it (I can't say that about some of my other "popular" games). The best part about it to me is that it has a good feel to the game, like the "Mario Style" games of nintendo.

Cool Game Mate!!!

I loved this game. My kids (7 and 4) loved this game. The graphics, music, storyline are all good. The only downside was the final ending - it tooks weeks of hard work to reaqch the final ending and then it was a bit anticlimactic since one would assume a big splash at the end and instead it was nothing special. But I still highly recommend this game to families.

Ty the Tiger rocks

This game is a great game to play. It's not so much an easy game to play but it's no a hard either. It is smack dab in the middle. The three best features of this game are:
________________________________________

1) The weapons. There is no other game out there that would go far enough to invent different bommerangs with all different abilites.
2) The characters and enemies. Who would dress the characters up in jackets, etc. The characters are very different and unlike every other game (except Spyro, those characters are different and creative)
3)The Plot. Even know it repeats the same all "Must Find Family" routine it still gives the game something to play for.
________________________________________

This is one of my favorite games that rank right up there with Spyro, Crash, and Sonic. ... The enemies move great, Ty moves great, the camera angles are almost perfect and the game is so mych FUN to beat.
