The analog thumb sticks on the PS2 controller offer extremely refined maneuverability. The left stick controls direction, and the right stick controls roll. The combination, which takes a little practice to master, allows for sharp turns and gives players plenty of flexibility in tight situations. But the graphics are the game's true star. On planet surfaces, designers did a great job creating terrain that is nice to look at and challenging to play.
Enemies can hide behind ridgelines or dive down a canyon to stay alive.
