CONTROLS CONTROLS CONTROLS!!!
This game lacks good controls over the character, to the point where I wish the PSP came with a second joystick control to allow true 3D control over Death Jr. The controls make it difficult to make it through some levels, to the point where I want to slam the system down on the floor.
If you go into a level early on in the game, and witness the enemies in that level, but don't complete it, then later go into another level with newer enemies, and then complete that level with the newer enemies, those newer enemies will now appear in the other level, causing it to be more difficult to complete than it would have been before. Once you've gain weapons to destroy those beasts, those beasts won't leave you alone.
I personally would enjoy this game more, if there were more levels, with overall shorter durations to go through them. It's a total bummer to go through one level for a butt load of time only to end up dying at the end before it's completed, just to have to start over from the beginning again, and again, and again. If it weren't for the lack of controls over the character, this wouldn't be an issue.
Other than the downfalls of the game, the overall design of the game concept and art, especially the full motion videos, are very well done and deserve special treatment.
If they ever make a sequel to this game, I hope they make the controls over movement and positioning easier, and more enjoyable. It's a bitch trying to shoot at something with the zoom shot, as it moves way to fast to home in on an enemy. Why have that ability anyway if it sucks major ass?
Someday, the creators of this game will realize that a good game requires good controls, and not just awesome video, interesting story line along with some creative enemies and beasts.
