Anubis for the WII - Don't do it. Just don't.

Post by PariahPoet »

This looked like a cute easy game when I got it for kicks. I liked the toony little Anubis character.

Stupid game is horrible! I am no stranger to videogames, but I couldn't even get through the tutorial because the controls are so terrible! Run speed is way too fast and directional controls are way too sensitive so you can't control where you're going. There are places where you have to do something like jumping a cliff in the tutorial where the gap is longer than your character's jump distance.

I cannot tell you how awful this game is. Don't even waste time looking at the box, just walk right by it!!!

Ouch, you didn't look up any reviews of this game before you bought it? This is one of the worst games for the Wii, and the Wii has a ton of horrible games.

I've never even heard of this game. Then again, I don't have a Wii. :P

It's a sequel to a generic platformer for the Playstation 2. One of those generic ripoff games that makes Crash Bandicoot seem godly.

This is why I always, always look at a game on Youtube before I even so much as rent it, much less buy it.

I did the same thing with Alone in the Dark last year. I just bought it hoping to be surprised with a nice and scary game, but if I had read the reviews back then I should have known what kind of tripe it actually is.
