    Avatar achieves something unusual: a movie-based game which is not disgusting. It is actually an interesting and very compelling title, offering a good third-persona action proposal which excels in its atmosphere.

    James Cameron's AVATAR is a surprisingly good video game for a game which derives from a film. Visit Pandora and be a part of the battle between Humans and the Na'vi.

    If only they spent a little more time ironing the bugs and this would have complimented the movie rather well.

    A good adaption of the movie. It has got a different story line compared with the movie. This makes the game a lot more free to do with what you want in the world of Pandora. You can play with the Na’vi and the RDA, both of the sides deliver around 8 hours of gameplay. Not the best movie adaption ever, but one that is fun to play and interesting for the fans.

    Avatar is a solid game based upon James Cameron’s Movie. There are downsides, but the game triumphs over its obvious drawbacks with a good mixture of genres in its gameplay.

    Don't let the "critics" judge this game for you. Judge for yourself. Avatar has wonderful graphic. The world never feels the same. The Don't let the "critics" judge this game for you. Judge for yourself. Avatar has wonderful graphic. The world never feels the same. The game play is enjoyable and different, depending on which side you are playing. You can play as a soldier or one of the natives. I have two saves going, one of each. Lots of replayability. If your looking for something different, with a pretty good story, give this game at least a rent, it"s worth it.… Full Review »

    Love this game, and it's awesome to play in the Avatar universe. Choose your own character and they have a custom Navi, so cool!
