.....but when she got the hang of it, I couldn't get her to stop! This past weekend, she completed the whole game!!! Yes, the whole game! The credits came out then the screen went blank! She was sooo proud of herself :-) I'm very glad that it's not one of those impossible games to finish. Now, I'm out shopping for a new one.

I bought this game and I play it more than my little sister. It is so much fun. I love the Power Puff Girls. I like how you choose who you are. It is kind if hard though. I have had the game for a few months and I still have not beat it yet.

This was the worst game ever. When I got it, I was like "Coool!"
then after I played it I was like "Ew." I ran to my room, took my Powerpuff Poster and burned it in my fireplace. I got yelled at! My mommy didn't understand that I was truly upset. I hate the Powerpuff Girls. I met Bubbles once and she was really nice. Now I wish I could punch her.

First of all, if you are a parent of a gamer or a gamer yourself under the age of 12, I whole-heartedly recommend this game. It's amusing, the graphics are great (it employs cell-shading to brilliant effect and really looks like a cartoon) and the it's pretty simple to figure out. In fact, if you are one of the aforementioned people, go ahead and skip to the last paragraph.
Everyone else, especially grown fans of the cartoon: avoid this game. It gets one star for being interesting enough for me to finish the game and write a review, and the second for the graphics. There are a few jokes for the older set (one about saving an election by "voting with our fists" made me laugh) but mostly this game plays it super-safe. The differences between Townsville's attack by a wave of invading alien broccoli in one of my favorite episodes and this latest pickle threat are vague at best. There are various things you can unlock as the game progresses, including some fancy special moves, but you can also beat the game in about two hours by button-mashing. I think I beat the whole thing just by spinning in a circle around enemies and tapping the X button. Entire levels are beatable by just flying high over the threat, and the only difficulties come from escorting defenseless characters or racing against an excruciatingly small time limit. However, with unlimited continues and non-existent AI, the effort all but dissappears. I suppose it's also worth mentioning that the "scenes from the cartoon" are heavily marketed with the game, but players will quickly notice that these places are never more than scenery that you fly by over and over, and at no point did I see Fuzzy Lumpkins or his Country Shack, thank you very much.
At first I thought maybe it was my mistake, that this is what I get for renting a video game about a (mostly) kid's cartoon. But I've met 8 year olds who would be bored to tears by this game, and the game itself is marketed as a "fighting game". While I think kids need some catharsis in their lives, this game really is mindless in its endless punching. And the fights never really get more exciting or involve any strategy, so don't really count on a brain-cell workout. So as someone who sees no harm in letting children play-act mild violence, I thought this was so one-dimensional and repetitive that as far as catharsis goes, for any child it's either the equivalent of a punching bag (good) or sitting in a chair thinking "punchpunchpunchpunch" for as long as the gaming session lasts (slightly disturbing). I may have been a jaded and strange kid, but this game would have probably been a let down as a punching bag to me then as well.
