    I truly made this account for the sole purpose of warning you not to buy this frustrating nightmare game. If you really hate yourself, though, go ahead.

    If you are someone who has played other games in the Monkey Ball franchise, you have probably also noticed how this specific game does not live up to the expectations set by others in the franchise. I started with Monkey Ball 2 as a child and loved the game, I thought I would buy another Monkey Ball game and this is what I ended up with.

I started with Monkey Ball 2 as a child and loved the game, I thought I would buy another Monkey Ball game and this is what I ended up with. The level design for the campaign isn't bad (although I didn't enjoy the boss fights very much). it's the same old same old kind of thing. The main issue I had with this game was the party games. They suck... really badly. I tried out each party game once and will never try them again. They are frustrating, simple, and not very fun to play. Monkey Ball 2 had racing, baseball, an arcade shooting game, etc. This game just had a bunch of simple boring games that had no replay value. That along with outdated mechanics made it a game not worth buying for me at least.… Expand

    Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz HD is a fun and challenging 3D platform game. Ideal for playing alone or cooperatively with several friends on a single screen. We are facing the return to the scene of SEGA, and despite being a dazzling game, knows how to meet in levels of quality, fun and challenge.

    Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz HD is exactly what one wants from an arcade game. It's simultaneously pithy and filled with content, fun and challenging, and energetic and thoughtful. Like the little monkey you control, Banana Blitz HD has mastered the art of balance, and it shows.

    Overall, Super Monkey Ball banana Blitz HD is too difficult to play due to the controls. It made me feel sick, and it lacks a lot of the fun extras that were a draw for the series, or at least what should be expected in one for the current generation of consoles.
