ActiVision's 'Bee
Movie Game™'—
Un-Bee-lievably Hilarious!
From
the makers of Shrek and Madagascar comes the next DreamWorks
Animation film, Bee Movie— written, produced, and starring the voice of
one of UPBEAT's all-time favorite comedians, Jerry Seinfeld. The Xbox
360 Bee Movie Game offers a one-of-a-kind game play experience, as you
play as Barry B. Benson in this pulse-pounding adventure from the
never-before seen perspective of a bee. Everything kids love about
gaming— racing cars, chasing targets, flying at high speed and more—
come together in this action- packed and adrenaline-pumping game! Race,
chase and fly your way through an adrenaline-fueled world of adventure
as the witty and courageous Barry B. Benson. This is the mission of a
lifetime! As Barry B. Benson, you are on a journey to save the bee's
production of honey that takes you to New York City and beyond. Master
the hustle and bustle of the hive and venture outside the hive to
navigate the hazards and excitement of the outside world. All in all,
the Bee Movie Game presents so much variety with each of the individual
elements standing very strong on their own. You will indeed have a blast
{or perhaps a Buzz} playing through each type of challenge the first
gadzillion times you play, but watch out as this game becomes more
hilarious as you progress. The graphics and sound are exceptional and
top notch.
It’s
great to see a game based on an animated movie that really
approximates what you see on the big screen. The graphics in the game
aren’t quite on par with the movie just yet, but it seems we’re getting
ever closer. The models are well-detailed and the animations are
extremely cute. Trust us, your little one will never tire of watching
his/her favorite characters practically leap off the screen and onto the
living room floor! Level design, especially when flying through the
flower garden for the first time, is phenomenally cool. The scale of the
foliage and addition of details like bullfrogs really gave me the
feeling of bee-ing there, if only for a little while. We're giving this
game a massive holiday gorilla thumb up and an Editor's Choice for the
wonderfully executed animation! UB
