Every console has a family friendly mascott, Nintendo has Mario, Sega has Sonic, Sony had Crash, so shouldn't Microsoft have one two? This review will tell you why they don't.
GAMEPLAY
So Blinx has basic platforming, mixed with the ability to control time. The time controls don't add ANYTHING to the gameplay. The other thing, is that you can't jump on enemies, you have to suck stuff into your vacuum-gun thingy, and shoot it back at them. The only collectibles in the game are the cat medals, which there are three of in a stage.
GRAPHICS
The graphics are quite cartoonish, and are very detailed, they might actually be the only thing good in this game. But just because the graphics are good, dosent mean that there's no problems, the camera get's in the way to much.
STORY
Besides that Blinx is a time sweeper, cleaning up time crystals, and saving the princess from the evil pigs, that's it story wise. Throughout the game, there's only 2 cutscenes, one in the beginning, and one at the end.
AGE
No offensive content, ages 4 and up. Despite this, they're most likley the only people who will like the game.
CONCLUSION
If your looking for a bad game, you've found it here. I don't think anyone would enjoy this game. I give it a very bad 1.9 out of 10.
DETAILS
Blinx: The Time Sweeper was developed by Artoon, and released Microsoft Game Studios in 2002 for Xbox. It's rated E by the ESRB. It was followed by a sequel, Blinx 2: Masters of Time and Space.
