I was wary about buying this game - it sounds like it would get boring very quickly. I bought it anyway, and have played it nightly for a month! It's a great game to pick up and play for 30 minutes at a time, and each time is different and fun. Plus, the longer you play, the more fun the game can become. Unlike other games like Starfox or Mario Sunshine (both super-great in their own way), you will play this one for years!
