This seemed as good an excuse as any to have a crack at the game the other day, having never played it before. I remember its release, but I was never really interested in it, despite owning nearly all of Rare's other N64 games. It always struck me as a bit of a strange release and more of an oddity than anything else, so I never bothered with it.
Anyway, I put a couple of hours into it on Sunday, and...yeah, it's not great. There's a really odd tone to it. Strange, jarring characters, confusing and messy environments, unclear objectives and signposting...it's just not very fun. Visually it's impressive, but everything else about it so far has been very average. I reached a point where I haven't got a clue where to go, and so I'll probably look that up and put another hour or so into it, but if it doesn't improve, I think I'll ditch it.
