This is one of the best games ever made. Great story, great mix of platformer elements. I've played it through twice and will probably play it a third time some day.

The situation is gradually getting worse, as the rate of DomZ kidnapings increase. The Alpha Section forces, who are in charge of protecting citizens, seem to be completely ineffective, not even fighting the DomZ.

Why I didn't play it yet:

It looks like a seriously underrated game and I want to be one of the people who could experience and appreciate it."

"Another game that was released into the fickle world of the PS2 with no hope of grabbing the attention of the public.
Time has at least been kind to Beyond Good and Evil though, and over the years it's reputation has only grown. A recent HD remake should also ensure that it experienced by many who missed it first time round.
