A Great Rental. 3D Gouls and Ghosts. Graphics are great, Control is great. I had a lot of fun playing it, but I got tired of it after a while. A must try, but not a must... [ Read The Full Review... ]

A new take on a classic game. Plays like a 3D version of Ghouls N' Ghosts, but yet it still retains an edgy style and feel that many games don't seem to have. Fun game that takes you back to the old classics you used to... [ Read The Full Review... ]

Like most here, I was skeptical of this game, and the fact that the reviews were mixed had me worried. However having said that I am proud to annouce that this game is super fun. Its not ultra-complex and involving like FFX, but what it... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		Stevie T (70 Trusters)	9	2/18/2002
I admit I had my doubts. After all most remakes, Centipede, Gradius, etc etc were awful. I took my chances because it promised to keep the good and really bring it to the modern era. Success! More surprising the general... [ Read The Full Review... ]

Maximo is a fun, challenging romp through a land formerly known as "Ghosts 'n Goblins". You play the role of boxer-wearing Maximo who is out to thwart evil and regain the love of his life. Along the way he'll find himself in a number of... [ Read The Full Review... ]

Maximo: Ghosts to Glory is the transition of one of the greatest 2D games of all time "Ghosts and Goblins" into the 3D world. The gameplay is more realistic than other platformers because you cannot double jump. This makes the game more... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		Cindywho (26 Trusters)	9	7/19/2004
I like this game a lot more than I thought I would. I was pleasently suprised by how addicting the levels are, and how polished the graphics look. It seems to be using a similar graphics engine to Devil May Cry, level design,... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		Tony Garcia (2 Trusters)	5	1/16/2004
This game is beyond hard. It is frustratingly hard. I have yet to be able to pass the first boss in the graveyard. I simply cannot do it. I'm all for games that make you work a bit in order to show off your gaming skills, but this game is... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		Moe K. Ghorab (3 Trusters)	8	7/1/2003
This is a 3D remake of the ol Ghosts and Goblins games on the NES and SNES. It tries to keep the same feel of the series by having powerups, armour systems of defense and the ol get-hit-and-end-up-flying-backwards system of reacting to damage. ... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		Lytnngseed Steve (12 Trusters)	7	5/19/2003
Not really sure why Capcom pushed so hard in the mediat to claim this game isn't a version of Ghosts 'n Goblins, when it obviously is. Fun title with a few headache inducing camera angle problems. As T. Dowdle said, activating the checkpoints... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		Nick Dimitrov (10 Trusters)	10	1/13/2003
What a gorgeous game. This is one of my top four favorite games of all time (Halo, Gotham and GTA Vice are the others). At first sight Maximo is another "me too" type of game but it somehow combines a fun gameplay, solid graphics, and great... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		BlueBomberDude (9 Trusters)	10	1/12/2003
One word sums up this game FUN! I always have a blast playing this game - the visual and audio presentation is all very well done. The control is tight and will take only minutes to become second nature. The... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		Dark Laduke (3 Trusters)	9	5/26/2002
This is an old school 3D action platform game that ranks among the best. The first time I played it I thought it was kind of like a fleshed out "Medievil". It's pretty challenging but fun enough that you'll keep coming back for it. The graphics... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		Trevor Dowdle (7 Trusters)	9	4/27/2002
The control feels really cool, the camera you basically move it where ever you want. This game is really fun though the first level game me some trouble because I couldint figure out how to activate the check points, they could have explained that... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		SeriousMite (6 Trusters)	8	3/31/2002
I think more than anything else what makes maximo great is the flawless controls. You know that feeling when you have absolute control of a game? When you forget you have a controler in your hand and the character seems to be an extension of your... [ Read The Full Review... ]

Maximo is a well designed game, back to oldschool if thats your thing. Now I may not be the biggest platform know-it-all but I know talent when I see it. This games replay value should make it good enough for you to want to buy it alone. With all... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		Chris Gray	10	3/22/2002
This game is so cool! I love games that have many power-ups and a variety of levels. I like how you can save some power-ups in your belt, so if you die you don't start bare bones. For the PS2, asking for no aliasing is... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		Sir Adam, Thane of Cawdor (76 Trusters)	7	3/22/2002
A great game to start with, by the time you reach the snow level, you are so bored with doing exactly the same time over and over again that my interest fell so quickly i haven't touched the game since. It is a real shame, because up until... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		Robert P Holley (7 Trusters)	7	3/18/2002
Slightly above average 3D action platformer. Propped up by nice graphics, numerous power-ups and "easy to pick up but hard to master" gameplay. Unfortunately its brought down by short game length, poor saving system and a limited... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		maxim_crow	6	3/12/2002
I can respect what the developers were trying to do with this game, but overall I came away disappointed. The graphics are nice and clean, the gamplay is tight, and the levels are pretty creative. BUT, the learning curve goes from zero... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		rvncto (5 Trusters)	9	3/11/2002
I just beat this game tonight. It was a very solid (like another poster said) and satyisfying game. Everything worked just right. When was the last time you could navigate your way across a narrow ledge in a platformer and not fall... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		deurk	7	3/5/2002
Graphically: soooo good! But what about the rest. I was waiting for a real action game like I remembered the old Ghosts'n'Goblins... It's something like that... But HELL, how can we play with such a camera? That's the second... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		merlin48 (1 Trusters)	9	3/4/2002
This is a great action platformer with old-school feel to it. Has a lot of the Ghosts and Goblins charm to it (as well as the toughness). Maximo can be unforgiving at times, but very rewarding if you stick with... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		HiFi SciFi (7 Trusters)	9	3/3/2002
Back in the 16-bit days of video gaming, 2D side-scrolling-action-adventure games dominated the console software scene more than any other genre. The predominant storyline of the era went something like this: roam the countryside, collect... [ Read The Full Review... ]

		Anthony Molee	9	2/25/2002
Excellent graphics coupled with tight gameplay make this my top game right now. Camera is a little fickle but worth the occasional obstructed view. It is fairly easy though I don't think I have truly "explored" every level... [ Read The Full Review... ]
