1.0 out of 5 stars The worst game yet for the Wii, avoid, December 11, 2007

This review is from: Anubis II (Video Game)

Anubis II has a budget price for a reason. This is above all the worst game to see the light of day for the Wii yet, thanks to it's unresponsive controls, ugly visuals, boring gameplay, and a grating soundtrack all combine to help Anubis II claim the aforementioned title. You play as the savior of ancient Egypt, or something, in what would otherwise be called a platformer. As anyone who has played a video game in their life will know, jumping is key to any platformer, which Anubis II attempts to use with the Wii-mote and nunchuk, and this is where the game fails the most. Raising up the nunchuk barely works (and in some cases, it just doesn't), while the tedious combat illustrates the game's broken controls and boring gameplay all the more thanks to just plain bad movement. As far as the game's graphics go, the Wii is far from a technical powerhouse, but Anubis II looks like it was emulated from a first generation PS1 platformer. In case you haven't gotten the idea yet, Anubis II is by far and large the worst game to hit the Wii yet, and should be avoided at all costs.

This is absolute garbage. Unable to even play the game and control the character. The developers should be ashamed to have released this.

Despite the fact we own about 18 Wii titles and 90 Gamecube game titles, this game is the only one that will not play on 480p mode on our HDTV. All the other games work, this one you get a scrambled HD signal.

We contacted the developer and the game and never received a response. If I were a retailer I would steer clear of selling products from this game developer!
