Customer Reviews

Hardest game ever
I've been playing video games since they first arrived on the scene, and I'm pretty damn good at them. But this game completely kicks my butt. Seriously. That's not exactly a complaint since it's been a long time since I've found a hard game. But jeez, this game may be too tough.

I've never played the original, so this was my first exposure to Joe. It's a fun little concept, and it's fun the way you're powers work. But sometimes I just got frustrated. And there were puzzles I just couldn't work out without a little internet help. In other words, it's easy to get stuck in this game which is a bad thing in a side-scrolling action platformer.

The graphics are nothing special and it can be a little repetative. The bosses in particular take just too long to beat. Once you've mastered their pattern, you're stuck repeating yourself for a few more minutes than is really fun. It can sometimes even be a little boring.

Fun concept. Fun game. But a little frustrating at times. Thank God there's a kiddie mode, or I'd never finish it.

Awesome
This game is awesome. It is a sidescroller beat em up game. Sylvia and a few extra modes have been added in the sequel. The only problems are that the game can become very hard in the later levels and the graphics are not as good as in the previous game. If you get one version, get the GC version because the frame rate is smoother.

A very wonderful game!
Pros:
-Being able to play with Sylvia.
-Great graphics.
-Great controls and gameplay
-Cool enemies and challenges
-Lengthy

Cons:
-Could be hard at times
-Makes you think hard about puzzles

overall: Really good! Better than I thought it would be!
