Maaate! This game is a lot of fun. You play as Ty, the coolest game character in a long while. Ty has his own moves such as a powerful bite and an unreal collection of boomerangs such as a Flamerang (fire), Frostyrang (icy) as well as Zoomerangs, Doomerangs and Kaboomerangs. There's a lot of exploring to do if you want toget all of the gems Ty needs to move through the game, but it's well worth it. Ty has a lot of mates who give him advice and ask him for help but Maurie is the best. He's always giving Ty a hard time. And if you get tired of Maurie's attitude, you can always throw a boomerang at him :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Ty the Tasmanian Tigers excels as an action-platformer...., November 6, 2002

I'll be the first to admit, Ty isn't very original nor does he offer anything new to the hordes of platform games out there yet what he does have that no one else out there has is attitude. I mean, how many games do you know that has outhouses for checkpoints? EA did a commendable job with Ty. Presentation and plot are top notch as well as gameplay and control. My only gripe has to be with the camera. Other than that, it's a fun game to play and I highly recommend to all platform game fiends. It's well worth a look.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Game, June 22, 2003

All the reviews are very accurate. Everyone in our family has loved it, even though it was purchased for my 4 yearold. We tried several Disney games but this one finally taught my son how to play the PS2. It is a perfect game for novice players (me), young players, and experienced players(Dad). The hard stuff we let Dad do. There is an automatic save during the game and the objectives are clear. My child doesn't become frustrated because if your character bites it, well, he just comes out the nearest dunny without having to start over. Ahhhh. Very fun game. I hope they come out with another one.
