User Rating: 9 | Tales of Monkey Island PS3
let me start off by saying this is the first monkey island game that i have played but hopefully wont be my last.

Graphics: though this game doesn't really try to make the graphics anything mind blowing the graphics still do have some charm. there are some animations that look good but others that seem extremely rushed. apart from that the facial animations look pretty good as well. most of the main characters look pretty good but a lot of the other characters look pretty similar.

Story: A-MAZE-ING has a very little amount of flaws. every time that you complete an episode, you are rewarded with a cut scene with at least one twist that makes you want to start playing the next episode to see what happens. also most of the characters can be hilarious even if they don't mean to be. the only flaw is that some of twists in the story are expected... but i guess that's not too bad considering the story would be bad if it didn't have those expected twists.

Game play: when i got to the fifth episode i got mad at myself and it wasn't the games fault. when i was playing the other episodes i thought that he was the slowest moving thing on the planet... but then i realized he could run if you hold circle. you don't know how much happier i would have been if i knew this. okay now onto the real stuff. i consider this to be "the hardest game i have ever played" but that's not too bad because it doesn't get frustrating because of the charm and the humor in it. but don't feel bad if you resort into looking at a walk-through to get through a part that you cant get through.

length: kinda a very long game big enough in fact to be split into 5 episodes. also it has trophies for each of them but not that many or a platinum trophy but that's expected for a down loadable game. and you can get this game for a bargain for all 5 episodes you only have to spend (i think) $15 - 20

The verdict: if your looking for a Challenge this is the game to get but don't expect it to be some sort of high pase action game this game can move very slow at times.
