    The huge amount of variety, great storyline, and intuitive gameplay makes this game one that fans of just about every genre should check out.

    An excellent action game. Or is it strategy? Or perhaps action-strategy? Whatever it is, it is damn fun.

    Features some of the greatest cutscenes in video game history, giving Conker a run for its money as the funniest game ever. [Dec 2001, p.88]

    In the PS2 version, the game’s depraved humor is intact, and the gameplay is still a refreshing variety of action and strategy, though the RTS aspects of the base-building missions have been simplified.

    If you want a good action game for the PS2, Giants won't let you down. If you want a rare, genuine, and hilarious game to suck up about 20 hours of your time, this game has your name all over it.

    Delighting and mystifying in equal parts. [Jan 2002, p.81]

    The PC version featured some jaw-dropping graphics, but the PS2 version will put your jaw back on. It doesn't look bad, per se, but it hardly holds a candle to the PC.

    A very overlooked action adventure game, that never got a sequel. It is full of nice humour and cool characters. Overall rating: 8.3.
