    I have to say this is a massive disappointment. The frame-rate is terrible and split-screen is virtually pointless because of this and the sheer amount of garish visual noise being thrown at the screen. The driving mechanic is basic to say the least, the water based game-play feels like a poor mans wave race and the flying is just unbearably sluggish.

    Not nearly as fun as the last one. The vehicle transformations are stupid and don't add anything. The boat is just a car that handles worse and the plane is slow and annoying to get the hang of. Furthermore, they didn't nearly add enough new content. Only new level that was awesome was the Shinobi one which had a great song to go with it but otherwise this game was a complete waste of timeNot nearly as fun as the last one.
