Family Guy (PS2)

I was offered the Family Guy game free from a friend who didn't want it now i see why Graphics - The graphics we're well below par for a ps2 game and technically as the camera is at a fixed point all the way through it is classed as a 2D game. However they the graphics are quite successful at keeping the cartoon feel to the franchise. Gameplay - The gameplay has a super mario/rayman feel to it simple controls such as walk and jump and run etc Story - I wont give too much about the story away. But i will just say that the story is like an exaggerated episode that you can take part in. And if you are a big fan of the Family Guy series you ...  Read the complete review

Family Guy is an action game for the Playstation 2 developed by 2K games. The game has a separate storyline for each of its playable characters, Peter has been hit on the head by a satellite dish and is delusionally believes that his family has been kidnapped and goes around beating everybody up in his quest to recover his family. Brian has been accused of doing the deed with Seabreeze and it wasn't him so he has to go and prove his innocence. Stewie has to accomplish his goal of world domination but he has to get his rival Bertram out of the way first! Each plotline isn't that good story wise but the voice acting and trademark ridiculous Family ...  Read the complete review

I have been aware that this family guy video game was due for release for some time but I certainly had a few doubts regarding whether it would be worth buying or not. I am a massive family guy fan, got all the episodes on DVD, but that does not mean that the game would be good just because it has "Family guy" written on the box. Game designers have produced many other cartoon inspired games previously including south park (N64), Futurama (Ps2) and numerous Simpsons games. These have recieved a mixed bag or reviews ranging from down right rubbish to pretty impressive. So what about the family guy one. The game itself should probably be considered ...  Read the complete review

I love Family Guy, it's one of the freshest funniest TV shows around now, especially since the Simspons refuses to be humorous. But this game fails to deliver. Die hard fans may enjoy it as it's voiced by all the original characters and does go for the humour vote. But the gameplay is rotten. The game is split into three different games, You get to play one part with Peter, One with Stewie and one with Brian. Stewie's missions are the game's most fun moments. Most of the time you'll use his ray gun to dispatch foes, but in some cases you'll use his mind control ray to take over another character and use them as a distraction of some sort. Brian's missions are old ...  Read the complete review
