Aladdin Nasiras Revenge First Impressions - ( Review, Preview, Article, Interview, Q&A )

(C) Disney

It's from Disney, it cames out just before christmas... weird, I didn't expect a commercial product! Well, like another 3/4 games lately from disney, we're in front of a 3D platformer with just few novelties. First, compared to Tigger, this one is fully three dimensional, you can freely move toward any direction and second the camera has a really close view, this is the 3D game with most strict view I have ever seen, and this is no good, since often you will have troubles looking for next platform. Graphically and on the sound side it's another good work from them, and well, I guess no one did expect a graphic failure from Disney ever. Everything is cartoon painted and altough textures are not higly detailed it works out to be the first game ever in full 3D to exploit fully comics alike views.
The game is pretty like the first Aladdin, just ported to a 3D world, it's about you, enemies to be hitted with apples or killed with your mighty sword and over all a lot of platform jumping even helped with ropes. Puzzles are extremelly easy, whilst jumping action is pretty hard and the camera doesn't help out at all. Aladdin is better than most 3D platforms, though it's not a milestone in the gaming history, another time a good Christmas Gift for a young boy.
