Initial feedback

I hated that they changed things at first, but in the end, I enjoyed playing it. I just had to separate it from my idea of Avatar (from the movie) and let it stand on it's own. Having had some beloved book series be butchered and turned into fairly enjoyable TV shows with very little in common with the books they were based upon might have helped in that regard.

Graphics are quite amazing if your graphics card can handle them.

And täftxuyu: I'd be glad to try to alter the hands, if that's alright with you.

Go for it, I want to see what you come up with

i think one of the main reasons the game was so unfinished was because it was released before the movie and they didn't want to give too much of anything away. But still, terribly unfinished feeling to it, especially after watching the movie.

I still haven´t the oportunity to play it in a console, i haven´t seen it here in mexico.

i´ve only played it at my cell phone (W580).

If my word means anything, I definitely reccomend the 360 version of the game. Ubisoft might not have nailed it with the other consoles, but they were spot on for the xbox. Rating below.

Graphics: 8.5/10
-Gorgeous. Not CoD 6, but above the standard by a good bit. One of the most detailed games I've seen in a while. Some are even better than CoD 6 (heresy to say it)
Controls: 7/10
-Good, although animal (ikran, pa'li, etc) controls are clunky at best.
Story: 8/10
-Original. I liked the idea of a *Spoiler* Well of souls to preclude the movie. Character appearances were well timed and voiced well.
Gameplay: 9.5/10
-Some of the smoothest combat and movement I've ever seen. No monotony whatsoever; each side quest was unique. Truly excellent.
Replayability: 9/10
-Almost self explanatory. You choose your side, that provides plenty of gameplay. Throw in online mutliplayer and a conquest meta-game and this is one worth replaying. Although a Mass-Effect-style would have been the icing on the cake, this game has been hard to put down.
Overall: 8/10

Shouldn't the ps3 and 360 versions be identical, save a slight difference in graphics? That's weird that they developed it so much more than the others...

Hawnuyu atìtse'a · January 04, 2010, 02:53:25 AM

I haven't seen/played other versions like I said, so the review may be a bit biased. But I like the game.

Hufwe ta'em · January 07, 2010, 02:15:18 PM

sound like "WOW" ...

Atanä mungeyu · January 07, 2010, 02:18:04 PM

isn't really wow though...

Tanhì Tireafya'o · January 07, 2010, 04:57:49 PM

Yeah, I heard the PC/Xbox/PS3 versions are very overestimated. I've played one for iPod, I liked it. Haven't played anything else yet.

Ikranä mokri · January 12, 2010, 10:56:33 AM

to be honest i didnt really like the game, there was none of the umph that the movie had like only being able to link with one ikran and having 50 arrows other than the normal 2 that you see most hunters carrying and the idea of upgradeable armour for the Na'Vi i think wasnt great but thats just the Na'Vi side of teh game the human side was pretty damn good tbh

but thats just me

In my mind this game would be perfect if it was set up kinda like mass effect, or star wars knights of the old republic I would be cool if it was a huge wide open world like Fallout 3. Anyway I thought that the game was ok visually was good gameplay ehhhhhh I dont know lol

As for the avatar wii game, I give it a 3.5 stars out of five.
I loved it all; but there wasn't much to love. Graphics were great, but the storyline was kind of pitiful, and the game is really easy to beat in a couple days. Loved the fact you can go multiplayer with someone else in the room, but overall it wasn't quite worth the money. Kill a helicopter, get on the ground and kill more guys. It felt like I had already done the missions about halfway through. Great game, but it goes by way too fast, and they didn't spend enough time elongating it.
