I popped it in just to take a look at it and wound up playing a bit longer than I intended to. So I can attest to the addictive nature of the game. I look foward to spending some more time with it. Glad I picked it up!

You boiled it down perfectly. It is very addictive. One thing about this game is despite a mixed review technically, the game just has that pull that keeps you playing.

I admit I never played through a significant portion of the original which I borrowed (seriously) from a friend on PC a few years back. So perhaps the other games in the series are better, but either way this is a blast to play.

In comparison to the little bit of Indy (1 hr), Transformers (45min), and Ghostbusters (2hrs) this game is the clear winner. I've even put off playing the Conduit so far which is insane! Anyways, I will repeat my recommendation to all Wii owners in the market for a fun, different, mature game.
