Editorial Review: One hundred years ago, in the land of Gallowmere, an evil wizard was defeated by the honest citizens of the land. You are a knight that died in the first unsuccessful charge against the wizard's army, but the king, in need of a way to inspire his embattled people, gave you both a hero's burial and the credit for victory. Now the wizard has returned from the dead with a mind for vengeance, and you've been brought back from the dead to stop him. Perhaps the world's least worthy hero, you set out to save the land once again--for the first time.
The animation and humor are reminiscent of Tim Burton'sThe Nightmare Before Christmas. If this alone isn't enough to thrill you, the difficulty level will. This is one of the few games that seems to keep itself near the perfect level--difficult enough to keep you interested, easy enough to keep you from getting frustrated.
The perspective perfectly complements the gameplay and animation style: the 3-D follow-cam allows you, in most places, to look around with ease. And you'll want to take time to see the sights, since the game looks as good as it plays. This game isn't just for the hard-core gamer. It's for everyone. --John Cocking

This is one of my husbands favorite games so I got it for him. The old games can still be fun!
Rating: - One of the best adventure games of all time!
MediEvil is a fun and funny adventure game with Tim Burton-like visuals. My only gripe is sometimes the camera will shift to some very unfavorable angles and makes it difficult to know where you're going. Overall, i believe this game is a rare gem and deserves to be played by anyone who's a fan of adventure and humor.

If you are a person who likes action and adventure games (with a perfect touch of horror)you are missing out on so much because...
MEDIEVIL ROCKS!
COOL ENDING!
JAW-DROPPING GOOD MUSIC!
SECRETS... EVERYWHERE!
It also is really funny, has dozens of insane weapons, and has enimies that will strike fear in the bravest players. Remember to collect all chalices, or you won't get the second part of the ending. The only drawback is that sometimes the camera sucks. Other than that, the game ranks 1st place to me.
Rating: - great!
This game has very good graphics for a PS game and the action and music.The game is very good and has 22 worlds,although they're short.What I dont like is that,you can only save when you pass a world,and thats bad because if you're doing perfect in the world but then you die,you'll have to do it all over again.The game has 4hands up and 1con,so I recommend it if you like zombie killing,horror action games.
Rating: - Gravely entertaining...
This game is pretty good for its own sake. It's basically about a dead warrior in a land of ghouls & zombies who attack him at every turn, & it is up to you to find the Chaos Rune, among other hidden treasures arrayed throughout this underworld of bizarre incarnations.
The animations are up to 3-D par, although I will remark on the variety of different angles. The graphics are japanamistic, but nonetheless amusing.
