Planet 51 reviews

Planet 51 is one of the better games that have come directly from movie to PS3. The game itself is quite easy to get the hang of, with driving around and exploring being the main sources of excitement in the beginning. However, the massive game space (and lack of a map) make Planet 51 quite tough to get into. Activities like mowing lawns and parking cars are only fun for so long (and sometimes you have to do this more than ten times).

The cutscenes which are littered throughout the game are a little bit unconvincing. Although I have not seen the movie, it reminds me of games from the early 2000's where the mouth is going but nothing is coming out (or Kung Fu movies that have been dubbed into English).

On the upside, the majority of the trophies are very easy to get, I was able to get 100% in less than a week!

Huge amount of fun blasting around in floating cars. Not overly true to the movie story-line but that doesn't seem to be much of a drawback. Is a good kids game, the challenges are reasonably easy and if you can't complete in five times it'll give you the option of skipping. Definitely recommended :)

A perfect game for enthusiasts of the movie.

This game was okay, not one of my favourites Play as either Chuck, Lem & Rover in hovered vehicles and can hop out and cause some mischief Probably good for 5–8 year olds (older is a little boring)

Planet 51 The Game focuses around the use of vehicles, although there is the option to walk around on foot. The game consists of doing several missions, including mowing a lawn with a ride on lawnmower, racing, destruction derby, doing a newspaper route, and cleaning a circus. There are also collectibles including stickers and comic book panels, giving this game hours of gameplay. Highly recommend for the kids.
