SUMMARY:
I am really enjoying this game. My previous favorite was Jak & Daxter.
The most recent game I finished was Baldur's Gate.

But I really like Maximo. The players in my house tend to the extreem.
Myself, I am a detailed player, trying to get everything. My son is the opposite,
playing the minimum to get through a level. We work great together. He is
also enjoying the game tremendously.

It's not quite a slick as Jak & Daxter, but very close. The controls work nearly
perfectly. There's only one time, crouching, that I find doesn't respond quickly.

I don't mind repeating levels to build lives... I know there's tough challenges
on each higher (in some cases 'lower') level.

I think the bottom line, if you liked Mario 64, and Jak & Daxter, you'll get
your money's worth from Maximo.
