Xbox World 360 UK: Space Chimps Review

Xbox World 360 UK writes: "Don't feel too bad if you've not even heard of the film this game has been tossed off to accompany. It's not Pixar, and it's not Dreamworks – they're doing very nicely with Wall-E and Kung Fu Panda, thanks very much, and Space Chimps, with its so-so animation and C-list voice talent, is never going to be able to compete with either movie. It's Don Bluth-esque. The set-up is promising enough – Ham, a circus chimp descended from the first simian in space, is press-ganged into joining a monkey-manned mission to a new galaxy, alongside play-it-by-the-book captain Luna, and lunkhead Titan. When the hairy trio arrives on a strange planet, they find themselves dealing with a brightly-coloured civil war, and charged with the task of defeating the evil King Zartog."

You'll love:
+Setup is promising
+Not too difficult
+Erm... original voice talent?

You'll hate:
-Another movie tie-in
-Offensively familiar
-Visually repulsive
