Product Description

Based on the classic arcade Rainbow Islands series, Rainbow Islands Revolution is set once again in the ostensible Rainbow Islands where Bub and Bob are now under the shadow of an evil record company who is polluting the ecosystem with a constant, mass-produced musical chant. Only Bub and Bob have the experience to take on the record company and its seven bosses, setting the stage for an entirely new adventure.Each level is an island which is slowly sinking into the sea. The player must get to the top of each level, by jumping on platforms and making use of the game's most distinctive feature: the ability to produce solid rainbows, which are used both as platforms to stand on, and as a weapon. The environment’s strict vertical ascents seen in the original have been expanded into three dimensions, with each level’s buildingblock platforms now following perspective and disappearing into the distance.Based on the classic arcade Rainbow Islands series, Rainbow Islands Revolution is set once again in the ostensible Rainbow Islands where Bub and Bob are now under the shadow of an evil record company who is polluting the ecosystem with a constant, mass-produced musical chant.

I love this game. I have it for the Nintendo DS also!!
That's how much I love this game!
And I can not even begin to emphasize how amazing the graphics for this game look on the PSP...
This is a wonderful, non fresh, entertaining, somewhat like a puzzle game.
( Sometimes it's hard to find a decent game that is suitable to play around kids )
AND!! There's all sorts of secrets for you to unlock!!
( yeah, I am that geeky girl that gets all squeely when she beats a level on her own or unlocks a secret!! You should try it!! And if you're not a female.. you should let your GF or Sister try it!!)
This game is not only beautiful, it's a very decent game for all ages that can read and comprehend instructions!
( wouldn't suggest it for people under the age of say.. 9/10 )

A Kid's Review

= Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Rainbow Island: Evolution (Video Game)

This game sucks, it is way to easy and it is stupid!
The only thing you do is run and jump.
The controlls are very stupid.
If you like any of the following games: Halo, Mario ,Kirby, Spyro, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, COD, GRAW, or Prince of Persia this is not a game for you.
