Kameo:Elements of Power

[Jei]

I think i'm just a lot more fussy these days than I used to be, I just feel that the game's nothing that I haven't seen before and tbh i'm simply bored already.

I've enjoyed pretty much all the launch games on 360 but no matter how much I'm trying I just can't like this game just because the graphics are fantastic.

Worrying thing is, it's the first rare game I haven't enjoyed

The game does get a lot better, I'd stick with it if I was you and give it more of a chance. When I was a little further than where you are I quite honestly contemplated selling it straight away because it had been dull and uninspiring up until then.

I've just finished this, 10hrs 34 mins, not bad

The final boss was initially very hard but once you work out a routine it's relatively easy but just becomes a test of endurance. As for the ending to the story, well I didn't see that coming

I've completed the game, but I haven't unlocked the game completed acheivement, I assume you have to do all the A rankings and co-op missions to get that acheivement then.

Got this yesterday and have played on it for quite a bit now.

Really enjoying it and feels a bit like a Rare-does-Zelda game and also reminds me a bit of Fable, which is great!

The sound is atmospheric and Im really liking the graphics (of course!). The part when Kameo is on horseback running through the Troll army is really impressive, and Im hoping there'll be more of this later on!

I got this as a Christmas present, managed to get a few hours in today and i thought it was great, as said, the music is really atmospheric, i was impressed with the first area (can't recall now what it is called and i'm too tired to put 360 on knowing i'll have to play it!) the graphics are as good as project gotham 3, which are stunning btw.

Going to be able to play this tomorrow and tbh i'm looking forward to it, i nearly bought this at launch, but waited to see what others were saying first, would of still bought it anyway, i bought pn03 afterall..

Ahh, going to have to play it, rememeber how engrossed i was this afternoon, bye!

I think you need to get all 100 elemental fruit and 12 elixers.

Played this all afternoon, time just flew, it really is good this far.
The voice acting is superb, it is top notch, and some of the characters speak with accents you just don't expect, it is nice.
So far (about 5 hours in) it is light hearted overall, but when you come to get a sprite, the setting is dark.
The game to me is offering an overall wow factor as it is very very pretty, as a gamer this is really exciting, now played 5 360 games, all brilliant (to me) i personally think that it is a strong launch.
Off for a few pints now (i seldom drink) but this is what i'll be looking forward to when i come back!
Kameo so far is great.

Got this for Christmas and I'm loving it- I enjoy the bizarre humour, the graphics and music are both among the best I have ever seen/heard in a game and I just love the gameplay, it really can get quite dark at points despite being a generally happy and cheery game.

It's just a shame none of my friends have/want the game as I'd love to play some online co-op with decent people!

[Dazzla]

I'm pissed, I went back to go and get deep blue because it didn't register first time and I can't re do it. Means I've gotta start a new game and ge to Deep Blue just to get the acheivement points, how dumb.

Well from the reply's people put to my last post I decided to force myself to sit through a bit more. I've just unlocked Major Ruin and guess what......

I'm actually enjoying it now!

I think the mixture of a dodgy start to the game, some other AAA titles that are begging to be played and my general laziness when it comes to platformers made me initially get so bored.

Thanks guys

But I wish that stupid book would shut the hell up (Especially when you pause!)

I think the Videogaiden review got it half-right. The story, dialogue and characterisation are whincingly bad, but the actual exploration, environments and character changing are surprisingly entertaining. I think the combat is similar to Grabbed by the Ghoulies, but it works much more as intended.

I'm enjoying this but I can see how it would split opinion. The visual feast is a soother for all the teeth-nashing interchanges which take place.

Finished it today. Not bad. They needed way more combat sections and more variety in the enemies. By the time I had to fight the umpteenth horde of green trolls I was feeling quite sick. I simply ran past most of them near the end of the game. And the bosses of the last two levels were a right bore to fight. Who the hell designed them because they must have been stuck in the year 1996. The rest of the bosses were alright but the shadow trolls were easy as heck (all of them).

With a more refined combat mechanism, more enemy types and a better combo system I reckon the game could have given DMC3 and Ninja Gaiden a run for their money with its action but it falls short.

Still a fun game and the graphics (the environments mainly) are the best ever. I can't remember how many times I had to pick my jaw off the floor. Pisses on other 360 games in the graphics dept. actually.

Didn't unlock a whole bunch of achievements either because I wasn't on Live. Lame. Can't be bothered to go through the thing again.

7/10.

No bad thing at all and the most played 360 game so far

Yeah, why doesnt it understand that you know what your doing instead of saying over and over 'Check the WotNot' or 'I think you should listen to my advice' and that ****.

[sj33]

Wouldn''t be so bad if the Wotnot book didn't tell me that crap after I'd already done it!
