This review is from: Pitfall: The Big Adventure (Video Game)

Bought this game over the weekend only because it was on sale for $19.99, had it been regular price, would not have gotten the game. With that said, I LOVE THE GAME. It has me just as addicted as the Lego games.

My main reason for buying the game was because I loved Pitfall on the ATARI 2600, I would sit and play for hours. When this was released my only reservation about buying the game is that it is a one player game. We bought the wii for us to play together and agreed we would only buy games that we both enjoyed (otherwise I buy games for PS2). The graphics are obviously much better than ATARI, the storyline is easy to follow and basically if you remember some of the basic rules from the original games, it applies here as well, such as crossing crocodiles. The game can be a bit challenging at times, but overall I have been enjoying playing the game.

This game is worth the $40 now that I have been playing it.

This is a really fun game, BUT it is the exact same as Pitfall: The Lost Expedition for the GameCube released in 2001. Yes, they changed the title, write up and box to fool you, but I played it and it's the same story. If you are looking for a follow up to the Lost Expedition, this is not it.

I loved the first Atari Pitfall game and bought it when it was on sale for $19.99 too! I'm so hooked! I love it! The only draw back is that a strategy guide or walk-thru wasn't made for the game. I've had to really do some major digging on the internet to get some help on finding the resources I need to get pass certain obstacles in the game. Other than that, it's great. I highly recommend this game.
