    Possibly the best Platform game i have played since Mario 64/ Banjo
    Sadly still no European release but can be got from ebay etc:


    Regardless of the Grim Fandango style humour which is very funny, this is a stunningly mental game with some of the best level design and premise i have seen, you enter peoples heads and confront their nightmares in vicously twisted levels.

    Some excellent puzzle elements all usually simple enough well if you think of whos head you in (everyone has a diff personality) and what they might be thinking as an answer to a puzzle :confused:


    Cracking game well worth getting.

    It is going to be released in Europe, but a release date is to be confirmed.

    Surprised that Microsoft dropped the publishing duties for this game. Ironic after numorous dabs (and misses) at the platforming genre they throw away a game that is actually good.

    I agree - it's well worth the trouble to get.

    Anyone know where to get the PC version, since it's not region protected? I've seen a PC version mentioned in reviews and according to gamefaqs it was released a couple of months ago but couldn't see it for sale in any online shops.
