    I already suffered through the X-Men game this summer, so I figured Family Guy comedy would give the formula a much-needed lift. Clearly I've been betrayed, suckered into the same damn thing, and now I'm just frustrated. Family Guy has come very far in reproducing the TV experience, but doesn't get the same ratings.

    It's repetitive, boring and even frustrating way more often than it should be.

    With such a drastic difference in features and entertainment value between Stewie and the rest of his kin, one wonders why he didn't just get his own game. As it stands, you'll have to play through some pretty irritating nonsense just to get to the good stuff, and it's just not worth the effort.

    Exactly what I expected it to be -- a perfectly mediocre game with a few good jokes and not a whole lot of gameplay.

    Here's the problem with splitting up a game into three distinct parts: if two of them suck, the third doesn't stand a chance, even with a cult hit TV-show license to lend a hand. [Jan. 2007, p.76]

    Most of the action is aggravating, but Brian's stealth missions are intolerable. In several of his levels, you have to steer him away from trees, or he'll lose control and make you wait while he takes a whiz.

The controls were actually quite fluid except for some obstructions from the camera which proved too frustrating to continue on. The camera itself cannot be rotated and you are stuck with the two dimension view which at times does not reveal where you need to platform to fully and at other times is not optimal which is a needless problem in a platform based game. The areas for this reason became very repetitive breaking down to boring. If you read reviews on the game hardcore fans can tolerate this while other casual gamers cannot. Myself I enjoy family guy quite a bit but think I'd rather subject myself to the cartoons rather than lose my spirit within the game. The actual cartoon visuals, character voice acting and rediculous nature of the show is portrayed extremely well it's unfortunate the gameplay issues don't match. Still, if you are a fan I think this game is definitely worth the gamble but I'd do a little bit of review homework to make a final decision whether this game should be attempted.… Full Review »
