The Blues Brothers
Evil movie tie-in, evil movie tie-in!!! The best comparison to the dud The Blues Brother- Think of Bart Simpson VS The Space Mutants and imagine it it fast foward hyper mode, because basically TBB could be played in regular time, but to advance anywhere to have to be always running, so it's exactly like your character's in times 8 time mode. As the logical result, play control is thrown to hell. Not to mention the game has a plotless plot: The Blues Brothers just randomly appear in stages totally unrelated to the movie in which the only goal is to find the exit. In the first stage, TBB find themselves in a department store finding to find "the Stairway to Heaven" although they don't and the game never states what that is. For the second, they're in a huge frezzer. Ah, FEEL THE STUPIDITY!
The Verdict: About as good as the Home Alone games.
I recommend: that you will cry if you buy this.
