Mr Bean (PS2) - A Review

It's shocking to think Mr Bean on the PS2 is one of Blast! Entertainment's BETTER games.

I can safely say there is nothing appealing about this game. The cover is blatant false advertisement, with no sign of live-action Mr Bean, his car, a hot air balloon or Teddy in an airplane ANYWHERE in the game (at least on the PS2 version). The graphics are boring at best and abysmal at worst, the gameplay is hair-pullingly frustrating, and the story... well, what story?

And using the excuse, "Well it is for kids!" is poor, because if I had played this as a child I frankly would have been offended by how laughably simple and simultaneously annoying it is. Mr Bean is a game that's had very little thought or care put into it, whilst at the same time being designed in such a way to entice small children into picking it up and begging their parents to buy it. It's shameful in more ways than one and tarnishes the reputation of the loveable character it's based on. Don't waste your time with this monstrosity.
