Jumper

Jumper has to be the quickest 900 points I have ever gained. In less than 4 hours I had completed two runs through the game and gotten all the achievements except for the annoying Hard Target and Pack Rat achievements. I could have taken another run at Hard Target as once you have completed the game and obtained the Chinese Sword the game pretty much plays itself through the first five levels. The only difficult part was the next-to-last boss, the one that you have to face in several different levels, that caused me to lose my only life during my second play-through.

I doubt I will attempt to gain these last hundred points seeing as I have already put the game back in the mail. Jumper is definitely a game you should rent if you want to gain a quick 900-1000 points in an evening. The game-play does suffer from some broken parts. I got stuck on objects, below stairs, and couldn’t tell where my character was too many times to count during battles in dark brown and black levels. The comic-esque cut scenes do add a bit of nice to the overall game. After all, this is clearly a rent-only title. It’s short, suffers from movie-tie-in syndrome, and has horrible camera controls. It’s only redeeming quality is the speed and ease it throws its twenty achievements at you.
