    Graphics look like a Playstation 1. Gameplay is terrible. Controls are so dang bad and unusable. And who wanted an Aquaman game in the first place? Besides Superman 64 and Batman Dark Tomorrow this is the worst superhero game ever created.

    An absolutely brilliant game where the world is immensely big and there is so much to explore! aquaman moves like a Persian dancer, and the combat is as solid as cheese (that has been in a freezer for 666 years of course), it's so much more than the critics say, a truly brilliant game, worth at least 2 playthroughs

    Most people may think that "The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina of Time" is the greatest game to ever be made, but they are wrong, the greatest video game of all time is "Aquaman: Battle for Atlantis."

This is made true due to the vast open world to explore, and the intuitive game design. The soundtrack is amazing, it's like mac & cheese for your ears, although mac & cheese is already supposed to be put in your ears. This game is a true display of art, all games should look up to this one and be like, "I want to be that." The only acceptable reason to not go to sleep at night or not sleep at all is because this game was being played. The way "Aquaman: Battle for Atlantis" uses the hardware of the GameCube excellently. This game is a true form of art and is the source of many different cult followings. People that have played the game say that the controls are terrible and that there are way too many invisible walls, they just say that because they need an excuse for being bad at the game and not having half a brain.… Expand

    This game is horrible.All the people looks like they are dying,aqua man doesn't have eyes,his hair has problems,the enemies are the same,the levels are the same,this game is like superman 64.
    They destroyed another hero with repetitive game play and idiot things.
    And you know what happen if you (somehow) beat the game?
    IT CRASHES
    I give 1 only because you can return the game to the store.

    I have never played a game before in my life that was litterly absolute trash. Graphics look like they would be better off being played in PS1's graphics.

    This game changed my life :) The story is extremely memorable, the world is vast and huge and the combat is fluid and goes pretty well. Surely a game for generations to come

    Everything looks blurry, and it's tough to move around and fight—some combos require you to punch a dozen buttons. Plus, the panel-by-panel narrative looks more cheap than it does charming. Aquaman is all washed up!

    The battles are well-executed, if a little slow, but the overall experience is one-dimensional. [Oct 2003, p.140]

    Much like Aquaman himself: pathetic...unoriginal, uninspired, and sleep-inducing.
