    Great monkey ball levels however some cannot be defeated with certain monkeys. I think that's a problem. If you can over look a small amount of glitches and some poor boss battles (however I did like some). However I would say this is a grab as it is the best monkey ball experience since deluxe on the Xbox. The one stage I'm on is terrible and probably one of the hardest stages in monkeyGreat monkey ball levels however some cannot be defeated with certain monkeys. I think that's a problem.

The one stage I'm on is terrible and probably one of the hardest stages in monkey ball history in the last world. It is completely unfair and I know I'm good at this game. Despite that I love doing speedruns, recording them and trying to beat my times. I had a lot of fun with mild yet definite frustration… Expand

    Perhaps if SEGA chose to remaster and re-release the first two GameCube titles, which defined and perfected the core Super Monkey Ball formula - before it’s slow dive into obscurity thanks to Banana Blitz and other titles - we’d be hailing this as a minor masterpiece. Instead what we’ve got here is a HD misfire of a motion-control misfire from over a decade ago.

    Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz HD is a good remaster of the 2006 version. With a very well adapted control we will have to face 100 quite demanding levels. We will also have 10 mini-games to share with up to 3 friends and two modes with online rankings.

    As fun as its original release, Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz HD could have included more extras to justify its remastered relaunch, because Sonic, no matter how cool it is, is not enough.
