    It is a bit of a waste of the Wii’s capabilities though, and if you have a DS it may be worth picking up that version as it seems much more suited to a handheld.

    It's harmless, but hardly worth bothering with. [May 2008, p.74]

    It is quite a poor game, mainly due to the longevity though being a budget title – I wasn’t expecting a masterpiece.

    George of the Jungle may be aimed at young children, and their requirements may be different from that of a videogame reviewer, but this is just nothing more than sloppy.

    The 2.5D graphics are quite nice and it captures the character and environment well, but overall we can only really recommend this to parents who want to shut their kids up for five minutes.

    It's not funny and it's not fun to play. If the developers had simply fine tuned the collision detection it probably would have been fine.

    Go away, George of the Jungle, and die horribly in a fire.

    nintendo has stooped to a new low. Well... I guess it wasn't as bad as balls of fury for wii, but the game should hv been made for annintendo has stooped to a new low. Well... I guess it wasn't as bad as balls of fury for wii, but the game should hv been made for an ages 3-and up handheld game that you buy at a gas station. It was pretty bad, but if you happen to not have any choice between this and Anubis three, ninjabread man, balls of fury, jenga, and WW2 aces, go for this. every other game however is probably better.… Expand
