The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron Boy Genius vs. Jimmy Negatron

"Great 3D, Dissappointing Gameplay"
Well when I started this game I thought it would be cool, since the graphics was pretty good for a Game Boy Advance game. Boy was I in for a surprise. My prediction was... COMPLETELY OFF!
Story- 0/10 Well it seems like there's no purpose to this game. No plot, no nothing. You just go through weird portals and time machines to get to different levels. That's about it. Come on I would get more excitement listening to classical music! (no offence to anyone that likes classical music) I just mean it's so boring!
Gameplay- 0/10 Yet another extremely disappointing section. The game is too hard! When I picked a level to play, I kept getting hurt at one place! And you can't even get hit by one thing! When you get hit by something you get sent back to like the beginning of the level. It is just a waste of time and electricity. And I mean come on in one of the levels, the dark level, you have to... TURN ON LIGHTS! WOW! SO EXCITING!... yeah right! Come on turning on street lights? How boring is that? And there are these zombie things that throw things at you so it gets extremely hard.
Controls- 10/10 - Well finally something good. The controls are not that hard to memorize. In the first few levels the game tells you what some of the controls are, so it will be fine. I guess THQ spent way too much time on the controls and the gameplay but not on the important gameplay or the story.
Graphics - 10/10 - Well yet another good thing about this horrible game. The graphics are quite good for a Game Boy Advance game. It is quite an improvement over some games. Too bad nothing else is good in this game.
Playtime - Long - Well it will take quite a while to finish this game because well like I said in the Gameplay, this game is extremely hard, and from the first few levels. This is a game for the people with a lot of time on their hands.
Rent or Buy? - Neither - Don't bother even spending five dollars to rent this game. You should rent some other better games like Yu-Gi-Oh! Eternal Duelist Soul. That is a much better game than this. In fact any other game is better than this so just rent something else.
