Ok, I played through the whole game, fun and all, but I found it to be quite lacking. DO NOT BUY THIS GAME. Unless you just gotta have all things Avatar. The arena mode is just stupid. All the combo's for the players are the exact same button sequence and none of them do anything really unique. Uncle Iroh shoots lightening , but all the combo moves are as powerfull for each charecter. Its fun ... for 6-8 year olds. It lacks so much in charecter design. Aang is the Avatar , and should be able to switch from Air bending to water bending , and then as this game goes on , to earth bending. Each charecter should have had thier own unique moves. I would say the first game was better than this one in that respect. Katar- should have been able to go into octupi mode. Toph should have been able to become a rock giant. Zuko should have been able to have fire whips. Aang- should have had Avatar state on demand. Or a meter to fill to get him there. I guess overall, with the programming possibilities , and the abilities of our beloved charecters, this game is an utter failure. T_T. Not that my expectations were any kinda high. So I'm guessing story mode is just as lame? Is it as short as I hear it is (3-4 hrs?!?!??!?!?!?!?!??!?) Oh, well. I guess I will have to whipe the blood from my eyes from looking at Haru, but the first one is only about 20 bucks...

This one would have beaten the first one if it was just longer. Great game compared to the first but I beat it in 2 days. Plus there weren't enough character choices. You only play zuko and iroh in one level and jet in two.

I am hoping on rented it today, either for PS2 or for the Wii. I suggest you buy the game anyways if your a fan. I own the first game for PS2. So maybe someday I will own this game for Wii. There is so many Avatar collectibles out there and I am a broke doesn't get out of the house spends time on the Internet most of his life sad person.

Now I just rented it, and I am beginning to seriously get angry about the focus moves on the Wii. I am on the second chapter where Aang and Katara are about to rescue King Bumi and I am stick on making an ice bridge with Katara. It says hold down the Z button which I did and move the Wii Remote clockwise, but what the hell am I suppose to do? Do I keep doing this stupid move over and over again until it rumbles more? This is what pisses me off about the Wii. You never know what the hell you have to do with these little moves on any games. The same goes for The Legend of Zelda as well. Thats why for the most part the Wii sucks; very few game makers use the Wii motion sensor well <.< any ways as soon as the 360 version comes out I'll post a review as well ^-^

Nevermind, the entire thing was my fault. I though I had to keep doing the motions, but it turns out that it is a lot simpler then that. You just have to hold the wii remote like that and Katara does the work for you.

This is the second sucky Avatar game. Hopefully, despite all these bad reviews, they'll make a third one.

I'm glad I looked at this thread. I would have bought the game today if I had found it for the game systems I have, but I only saw it for PS2, which I don't have.
This is disappointing. I had high expectations for this game. After the other game's highly unrealistic plot, I thought this would have to be better, but apparently not. =(

Not to be too much of a jerk (okay, never mind, I can't say this without being a jerk), but: how could you have high expectations for it at all? Games licensed from TV shows and movies almost always are terrible. I'll never tell you not to have high *hopes* but the truth is most of these are just lousy cash-ins. You need to expect it, and be pleasantly surprised when they finally hand a project off to a team with some self-respect and a deadline far enough into the future to be able to do some good work.

That is kinda funny, since the graphics arent that great. I agree with beantown(the guest) Ubisoft would have been sweet, has anybody seen the graphics for Prince of Persia-Sands of time, the others are rated M so i dont pay attention to them-those graphix are awsome.And the gameplay is awsome too.So is this game better than the other one? I beat the other in about 3 days, which says alot becouse im no serious gamer by any means. I thought that it would have involved a little bit more.......gaming!It didnt last long, maybe if you could go back and revisit your previous locations, that would be cool.
Hmmm, or what if they made a sims that was themed for Avatar!that would be so freakin awsome!!^^ I would by that the instant it came out!
