PC  Earthworm Jim 3D 3.5

General/Summary: Earthworm Jim is an intriguing game at first, but overall it just falls short to be any fun. Controls, as with many games, is the weak point here to make it not worth your money. The old Earthworm Jim games were great, but this 3D iteration is not.
Gameplay: The gameplay is fun at first, with running and jumping like any other 3D platformer, but after some time the camera will become an extreme annoyance. This is obviously something you will notice, the game being a platformer, it determines the direction in which you go. Very unprecise overall.

Graphics: The high mark of the game. Graphics don't mean fun, and that's too bad it's the only thing really worth praising.
It has an amazing look to it, considering the low 90Mhz requirement. Of course, the character models are kinda low when it comes to polygon count, but the textures aren't bad at all, and it has a smooth look to it when you pump the resolution up, provided you have a speedy machine. On the bad side, the animation of EJ constantly turning his head is really a nuisance.

Sound: I'll put it plain and simple. This is probably one of the dumbest music I've ever heard. I know it's supposed to be wacky and all, but it is just downright annoying. Again, the original EJ fared better in this section, and that was at least 5 years ago.

from in the Fantasy section under Bob the Goldfish and No. 4 after beating the game 15 times
Oct 21, 2001
THE GOOD:
Its clean cut and realy sharp gots way better Grapics than its nentindo 64 twin.

THE BAD:
the only problem would probly be the fact that maybe tring to steal 100 marbles from Psy Crow is maybe too many marble and that i find the memories Section of the Brain actully harder to beat than most of the others for one once you beat memories you got three golden utters more than you need which is a boost because it takes 12 utters to get into the happiness section of Jims Brain and then once you got that you only need three other utters to unlock the fear section of jims brain to me thats opening way to many sections to fast because your opening Fear befor you finish happiness any thats way uncool because it takes a lot of more utters to unlock Fantasy.

SUMMARY:
and if you open two sections of his brain at the same time that makes it more complicated because you got to go back and forth between happiness and fear and try and get all the utters defeat all the villins that are tring to fry Jim's brain worse than it is already and whats up with the fact that in some parts of the game it gives you like 20,30,160,or,15 seconds to eather complete or doge opsticals,complete a completely useless task for some helpless soul like for instace the general pluck or what ever his name you have to retrevie his underware for him and when you get his underware he doesnt ever get it because that bull keeps them and then a frige falls ontop of the general so like why did you havve to get his underware inthe first place when #1 he never gets them back #2 what tha hell does his underware have to do with you haveing to get jims brain fixed which is almost impossible for a first time begginer unless he cheats which i think is imorral why buy a game and use cheats it takes the fun out of the game and the challenge too plus the game goes by faster and you never realy get your moneys worth i use cheats yes but after i have already beat the game once or twice and i only use them like once or twice and only because im curouis and wonder what the cheat looks like in the game when used because the trainer patchs for any game make you courious becauseyou wonder wellwhy is it so special compared to typeing cheats manuallyand because when you go to find a trainer patch for your game and you finally find it for download the person or persons who created it did not give a detailed description of what it does to the game and the fact that when it says infinate ammo you ask your self why doesnt it work on all the weapons like the egg launcher,or the fact that the disigner of the game made almost imposible to beat psy Crow at getting the 100 blue marbles other than that and the other defaults in the game and trainers that i listed above i would give it a 5 out of 5 because i ignore the fact this thim that the game has multipul defualts in it but lets pretend that the game was released when it was but with out the defaults ok or they rereased it with out the defaults ok thats what im rateing im blocking out the bad and only rateing the good ok in that case i realy beleave that i can and will give that part of it a 5 out of 5 and extended play i watch to this day would probably have given it the same rating when it first came out if the defaults were not in it and probably give it a 3 out of 5 today because of the fact that even without the defaults there are other games out there that would kick its ass all over the pavement regardless to defaults or no although the defaults included too man if that were the case hell it would realy get dogged because you got to figure Unreal Tourniment Game of the Year Gold eddition,AvP=(Aleins versus Predator) gold eddition, and Quake 3 Arena gold eddition all are really tite fast pase action adventure games tha are capable of lan/Cable or just lan or just cable whatever are able to have multiplayer deathmatches online with other people and im not talking computer vs human there are other people on computer fihting aginst and with you in the games... thank you for your time and thak you for takeing the time to read my rateing of PC Earthworm Jim 3D and have a nice day good bye oh and the person or persons that own this web site or created it if you have read this rateing by me please email me back a responce asap to tell me what you think about my rating ok you should be able to do this request for me because i posted my email for you under my name oh and im a true game master i have mastered at less 55 games but i dont own them all anymore just a few of them because they are obsolite and along the way i have bought games sold games to pawn shops used game stores like game traider and etc well i got to go email me ok asap bye oh and i aggree with Redemption i do like this game because it WAS one of a few games out of about 55 that has ever really given me a challenge because of its defaults...:[
