Gamespot: Code Lyoko: Fall of X.A.N.A. Review [DS]

Code Lyoko is a cartoon of many colors. It's made in France, looks like an anime, and features traditional 2D art and flashy CGI. The storylines float from planet-endangering digital attacks to preteen relationship drama. You would expect the game to follow a similar path by giving you tons of variety and a captivating, albeit adolescent story. Sadly, every facet of the show has received a giant downgrade in transition to video game form. From lackluster visuals and bland gameplay to an incoherent story, everything about Code Lyoko: Fall of X.A.N.A. is disappointing.

The Good:
* Competitive multiplayer mode is fun.

The Bad:
* The incoherent story is strictly for fans of the show
* Graphics don't do the source material justice
* The 2D portions are pointless
* Just when you think it's going to end, it stretches on for another hour or two.
