Universal Studios Theme Parks Adventure

"Lookie! I got points for shaking E.T.'s hand! OMG!"

Universal Studios Theme Park Adventure was the third game I got for the Nintendo Gamecube. I saw a preview for it on a website and thought ''Woah! This game looks awesome!'' Boy, was I wrong.....

Graphics

I don't like the graphics in this game. The characters are ok, but the backgrounds need some SERIOUS work.

4/10
----------
Control

There isn't much control. Walkaround, press a button to pick up trash, press a button to talk to people, press a button to shake E.T.'s hand....what else? Oh yeah.... Press some buttons to play the mini games. The control for the mini games suck also.

Audio

Sound? What sound?

1/10

Gameplay

Gameplay? What gameplay? You walk around and pick up trash and shake the park mascots hands. ''OH MAH GAWD! THATS TOO EXCITING! I THING IM GOING TO FAINT!'' Sure, there are the mini games, but the only good ones are Back to the Future and E.T. Yawn.....

Fun Factor

When a game is plagued by bad sound, bad graphics,and bad control, how the heck can it be fun?

1/10

Pros:

Good coaster

Good frisbee

Its always nice to have around when your in a really really bad mood. You can scrape it across the pavement, throw it at the wall, throw it at the monkeys at the zoo, throw it at you friends, eat it, catch it on fire and play Hot Potato, or the least fun thing to do, (besides playing it) sell it. Why would you want to sell it? The disc has SO many uses!

Cons:

Bad graphics

Bad sound

Horrible gameplay

You see Woody Woodpecker all over the place and you can't shoot him.

The disc chips when you use it as a frisbee

It doesn't fit down my toilet

It doesn't taste good

----------

Rent/Buy: If I see you buying this at the store, I'll dive at you, tackle you, and proceed to stomp on the game, go grab a gun from the hunting department and shoot it, and give you a ''Why did you do that'' kind of look. If you did buy this thing and I wasn't there to save you from certain death, BURN IT. STOMP IT. FEED IT TO YOUR DOG. But I don't reccommend trying to flush it down the toilet seeing how it wouldn't fit. Please, please, do not do not do not buy it. Please?

I should rate this game 1, but i'm in a good mood, so I'll be nice....

Final score: 2/10
