    An old style platform game with very old fashioned game play hidden behind lush modern visuals, which often hinder rather than help you. Mario is clear, concise and bright. Giana sisters is dark and grim when in the evil/half world and quick switching between this and the light world can (with the over detailed backgrounds) make missing important details, such as spikes, all too easy.An old style platform game with very old fashioned game play hidden behind lush modern visuals, which often hinder rather than help you.

Giana sisters is dark and grim when in the evil/half world and quick switching between this and the light world can (with the over detailed backgrounds) make missing important details, such as spikes, all too easy. Everything kills you in one hit, enemies, spikes, getting trapped in a closing door... everything, Mario always had his mushroom from his first solo outing and the Sisters could do with a few of these as they are no where near as nimble as our modern day plumber.
    If you like out of date game mechanics, where you feel you have played through it all too many times in previously played platform games, masked over by impressive(albeit often grim) visuals with a gimmick or two thrown in for good measure then this may be the game you have been waiting for. If not then don't get tempted...    … Expand

    L'étron indé du jour est un pseudo-jeu de plate-formes bien con et bien balèze du type "crève et recommence" puisque chaque truc ou chaque machin vous zigouille en un coup. Les graphismes sont bien entendu en 256 couleurs et l'espèce de musique est horrible.

    En plus de s'avérer aussi injouable qu'ennuyeux et con, vraiment très con, le "jeu" est un collectathon de merdes à ramasser sur    L'étron indé du jour est un pseudo-jeu de plate-formes bien con et bien balèze du type "crève et recommence" puisque chaque truc ou chaque machin vous zigouille en un coup.

    En plus de s'avérer aussi injouable qu'ennuyeux et con, vraiment très con, le "jeu" est un collectathon de merdes à ramasser sur des niveaux pourris dont on peut changer la "configuration" à la volée pour le meilleur mais surtout pour le pire.

    With its wonderfully designed stages, the cool soundtrack, exciting boss fights and comfortable learning curve Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams is a whole lot of fun - only we missed a co-op mode a little bit.

    A pleasantly compelling game, with great art and that under the novelty of the dimension-shifting mechanics hides an old school platformer experience.

    Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams on Xbox 360 is still a good nostalgic platform game that offers a nice challenge. Slightly longer loading times and the absence of the two free DLCs makes this version a bit less desirable, but still good for players that don't have a gaming PC.
