Kameo for Xbox 360 Review

Submitted by FoulBreed on Tue, 11/15/2005 - 10:16am.

Gamespot has posted a review of Kameo: Elements of Power, an action/adventure game that I honestly know nothing about.  The review is positive and is a good first review for a new system.  This game is by no means a \"killer app\" or even a headliner game for the 360.  I\'d like to think that this implies that the bigger-name games will be even better.  I certainly hope so, because I\'m having trouble finding a good enough reason to buy a 360 for much more than the novelty of having a new system on it\'s release.  I still remember x-mas \'01 and playing through the Halo campaign and being utterly sucked in.  I never turned back and looks where it\'s brought all of us.  I\'d like to see a game do that again.  Perfect Dark 0?  Halo 3 in the spring?  I\'m just not that optimistic.

Save your pennies, buy a bike, ride with me and Killer_D! The graphics are awesome, and the replay value is pretty high.

I will be very surprised if I play this game more than 5 hours, let alone own the game.

I\'m looking forward to renting games from MG or BB to try them out, though. I\'ll give Kameo a try, but from the demo at the XBOX360 kiosk, I won\'t like it.

I\'m starting to think maybe microsoft has rushed the 360 too much. In trying to beat Sony to the market i think they have sacrificed game quality and overall console power. Whether or not this is true is left to be seen, but I\'m starting to get very disappointed more and more with the reviews and the news I\'m reading about the 360. I have read reviews on NBA 2k6, madden 06, and kameo...while all of them should be decent games, but when you are getting lower scores, and losing more features than the same games on the xbox something is wrong.

That site averages all the scores from media outlets that release reviews for a game. Out of four sites so far, Kameo has 80%. Not bad, but not special, either.

I\'m looking forward to playing game demos that I can download straight from Xbox Live marketplace:
