Advantages: unique game with cute characters

Disadvantages: the 30 day time limit

When i first saw the cute little creatures of Pikmin i knew i wanted it. Having no Gamecube i had to wait a while, but when i got one i was in for a treat, although it had a bitter after taste!

The game starts with your character crashing on a strangle planet, and his ship parts being spread about every where from the crash. Your mission if to fond you parts of the ship before the 30 day time limit runs out. This was my major problem with the game; a 30 day limit. It made the game alot more stressful that it should have been and I would have prefered to take things slower and have a more relaxed experience.

But anyway, to do this, you use the help of some little plant/animal creatures called pikmin, that work together to carry big objects and enemies through the game. By bringing things back to your ship, using the pikmin, you can create more pikmin, enough to explore further and bring back your ship parts.

The addictive gameplay of going out and finding new things to make more and more pikmin, who have a host of varities, is entertaining. And it truly is sad when you see your pikmin die!

Summary: a good game but its very expensive at the moment!
