Bought the game last week and our 6 and 8 y.o. kids like it so far, it's fun but definitely not on par with Harry Potter or Finding Nemo. The movie is much much more fun than the game. It doesn't have what we call the 'stickiness' factor. You can play as Shrek, Donkey, Fiona, and few other characters and it's better to play as a team than as a single player. The game, however, is far too short for the full price. Most GC games of equal or better quality are much cheaper. I feel I paid $10-$20 extra for the marketing and hype. For those who like Shrek, think about renting it (can be finsihed over a weekend) or wait few weeks until it gets discounted.

Difficult, visually.

The first game we played on Gamecube was Spongebob, Battle for Bikini Bottom. We absolutely loved it and my daughter plays it over and over. Thinking Shrek 2 would be similar, we rented it. It's very hard to control the c-stick and it kept zooming in and out and wouldn't rotate the camera except for certain times. The charactors were very distant and even if we used the c-stick to zoom in, it still wasn't close enough. It's the same feeling as needing to put eyeglasses on to see something more clearly! Another aspect we didn't like was the four charactors are always together and you would lose track of which one was the main charactor. Maybe we're spoiled because the c-stick on Spongebob allowed you to rotate in every direction to see what was around you and the graphics were so good you could see facial expressions. It's surprising all the reviews are so good because our impression was completely opposite.

Good... for the kiddies

I got Shrek 2 a couple christmases (is that right?) ago, and i gotta say it was alright. the pros are that it is up to four players ( so if dad wants to spend "quality" time with junior), it has a wide variety of fun characters, and plenty of levels.

HOWEVER, it lacks graphics, and young children might not do well during the game. but overall its alright

Graphics: C/ It must have been released early, cuz it's pretty bad
Sound: B+/ crisp sounds. the sound really matches the mood.
Controls: A-/ Changing and controlling characters' a breeze

Good for children and adults to.

Not for young boys

This game is rated E for everyone when it really needs to be for Teens. The boys had fun but after playing it not just my son but My friends son were reported hitting females. I do not recommend this for young boys.

Its OK.....

I bought this game after I saw the movie. The movie was great, and I thought the game would be just as good. I played this game for about 15 min. and put it down. On the bright side, the graphics are great and its quite funny.

PROS:

-game control
-quite funny
-graphics

CONS:

-replay value

Overall- 6\10

Fairly Decent...

This game was ok, it served it's purpose. Me and my friend had fun trading off the controller and playing it together.
It was, of course, not as good at the movie. The graphics weren't the best and I agree that it has no replay value.
However, it was very cool to be able to play all the different characters from the movie and use all their different powers to solve puzzles.
All in all, it's worth a rental.

A Fun Game But......

...the graphics are pretty imbarasing.

The object of the game is to get snapshots and you get these snapshots by completing missions, levels, and Hero Times (a specific mission were you use one character). Some of the levels are fun, like the Far, Far, Away level(it has a Grand Theft Auto Theme).

I give the graphics a 3/5 (I think they should have done a better job on the main characters), audio 4/5, gameplay 4.5/5, fun a 4.5/5, and an overall of 3/5.

It's okay.

This game is pretty okay. I rented it at a video store, but I knew the second the first level started it wasn't very good. The camera angle and gameplay is repetitve. If you want a simple easy game, this is for you.

Booooooring Game!

This may be an enjoyable game for 1-7 year olds, but not for me. I have played MUCH better action games than this and even some movie ones' that are better (usually they're bad). It has boring, unimagined, predictable fighting moves, bland, somewhat grainy graphcs, weak AI (artificial intelligence on computer) both on your team and enemy and to add to that an awful player swapping (switching between 4 characters, at least with 1-2) players. This is the 2nd worst movie based game I've EVER played (better than Polar Express)!! If you would like an action game for your child (or children) based on a movie, at LEAST slightly better than this POOR EXCUSE of a game then rent/possibly buy Spiderman or Spiderman 2, King Kong, The Hulk, most Star Wars games or even Shark Tale will suit your needs with better results, as they are more responsive, creative, and fun-filled.
