Parappa the Rappa

Kick, punch, it's all in the mind. If ya dis Parappa he'll bite your hind. Um... never mind. Really gang, this game kicks arse. It's a story about a dog and his attempt to capture the heart of a flower. It's really weird, but in a humorous way. The atmosphere is perfect. The Jet Baby intro will stick in your head forever. This game was executed really well. What a concept, an innovative game that doesn't suck. It supprisingly is a good party game. It's as fun to watch as it is to play.

GRAPHICS

This game has some great graphics. It's all super-colorful and smooth. The paper thin characters look great and smoothly bounce around the screen. The backgrounds are interesting and can often distract you from tha rappin. The FMV kicks asno also.

SOUND

This is the best music in a game ever. It may seem lame, but it will stay in your head forever. It's some catchy stuff. Kick, Punch... The voice acting fits perfectly too.

CONTROL

There's not much to say here. You push the right button at the right beat.

GAMEPLAY

This is the most fun you can have without a directional pad. (Well, you can when you go freestyle.) You have to have rythm or you'll lose. The objectives are great too. You get to learn kung fu, get a license, make a shrimp cake, work at a flea market, try to get to a public toilet, and perform to a crowd. It's so cool when you rap bad and the music gets all funky and the background changes. It's even cooler if you get the cool rating and the instructor goes crazy.
