5.0 out of 5 stars A keeper!
Jersey Devil is original, addictive, and keeps you guessing with a constant shift in strategy and focus, from fighting enemies to solving riddles and mazes, to testing your dexterity and reflexes in very difficult moving obstacle courses.

And as a treat, occasionally you get some high-speed snowboarding or skateboarding action that will leave your head spinning.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not a good first playstation game.
It's good to get it when you get a little better at playstation, but if it's your first game, it's insanely difficult. I've only had my play station for a few months and I still haven't beaten the second level! You may need to play Crash Bandicoot, or Spyro the Dragon, before you try this game.

Jersey Devil is original, addictive, and keeps you guessing with a constant shift in strategy and focus, from fighting enemies to solving riddles and mazes, to testing your dexterity and reflexes in very difficult moving obstacle courses.

And as a treat, occasionally you get some high-speed snowboarding or skateboarding action that will leave your head spinning.

As for control, I never had any problem mastering the jump-tailspin combo with my simple analog controller, and the difficult moves only require practice to do well.

The music was great, to the point that I wish I could get a soundtrack. This game kept me busy intermittently for over 6 months of play, and there are still secret levels I want to go back and play.

Lastly, the images and scenery were like something out of the collective unconscious. The first time I saw the turnip-head guy, I swore I had met him somewhere in real life.

I really hope there will be a JD2, and he'd make a great Halloween constume, too!

Jersey Devil has got to be my favourite PSX game yet. The main character has got what it takes to become a big star - good news, considering that Jersey Devil 2 IS very much in the works :-) The levels are huge, and have just the right balance of everything. I especially liked the downhill sliding sections. I hope that the sequel will be as good as this... Highly recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars A must have for any gamer!, July 11, 2001

This review is from: Jersey Devil (Video Game)
This is my most favorite game I have. It is very creative and has a clever plot. The controlls are easy to master. The game is easy and challenging as you get depper into the game. The graphincs are so-so, but the surroundings are awesome. I suggest a memory card unless you have about a month of free time.You can do anything from snowboarding down slime to gliding in the air. When your ready you can take on Dr. Knarf and his mutant vegetables. This game is fun and challenging at the same time. So I suggest yo are used to playstation before you get this game. When you do have it, have fun and you'll find it's a great game.

This is an unusual game. The graffics aren't great because of the it being the original PS game. But the overall quality was excellent. Once you get used to the moves and the limitations of the character, it's great fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just as advertised!, January 25, 2010

This game was a favorite of my son's when it first came out...so imagine my happiness at being able to find it for him as a surprise for Christmas this year. And imagine my greater surprise when this game was everything the seller professed it to be. Other than the original wrapping being gone, this disc was brand-spanking new and played like a dream. Nice when products end up being just as advertised or better. This game put a big smile on my son's face.
What's better than that?

I originally purchased this game shortly after I bought my playstation. It is dark and challeging as jersey devil travels through haunted museums, graveyards, and sewers to defeat foes. I stupidly traded in the game for cash and have been longing for it ever since. Really fun to play!

5.0 out of 5 stars Jersey Devil, May 18, 2008
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Jersey Devil (Video Game)
This is a game for people who enjoy spooky games. Many vampire, ghosts and bats, etc. to fight with. It got a little hard at times. If you have played the "Croc" games, where you have to be quite accurate when jumping, this is the same. Well worth investing in.

This review is from: Jersey Devil (Video Game)
I first played this game as a demo at my brothers house. I then had to get a Playstation ( back then they were still $150. I can't believe they are only 40 bucks now) I bought Jersey Devil as my first game. It started out easy and way different from the demo. Then as the game went on and got extreamly hard. As time passed the game got scratched and unplayable. I never acually beat the game. I got to the part with the pirates and the pirannas. The only time thios game ever dissapointed me was when I had to play a basketball game against Obert. I thought i had to kill him and he never died. Then I figuered out that I had to shoot the basketball into the hoop. I recommend this game to everyone who likes classic Playstation games. This game really is a classic.

5.0 out of 5 stars Jersey Devil was a superb game., June 26, 2002

This review is from: Jersey Devil (Video Game)
Despite the fact that it didn't catch on with the public too well, I personally thought Jersey Devil was alot better than alot of other platform games out there. If I didn't have Crash, Jersey would be my second game of choice. Sure, it had its' lil flaws just like any other game but they weren't big enough to mar the gameplay experience. The graphics were good, it was like playing a cartoon. The sound was great, all the way down to the cartoon noise effects. And, most of all, the gameplay was challenging(just like a good platformer ought to be). If you like a good challenge.....love platform games and just plain having fun, Jersey Devil is the game for you.
Don't miss out on this classic, get it now.
