I got a used copy of P.N. 03 from Capcom for 17.99! The disc is in good shape, and I like the game quite a bit. The only thing I'm having trouble with is the Energy Drive system; it takes a while to get to know how to utilize them well. Other than that, it's pretty fun, even though it was a tough decision over many GCN games in the store. Also, I demoed Donkey Konga and I liked it ^_^ I kinda felt embarrased when I clapped though... I didn't like that part. So anyway, what do you think?

I've heard a lot of different things about PN03. Some people love it and some people hate it. At one point, I considered buying it. But, I decided there are better games on the market.  |

It's a good game and very very stylish, but I can NEVER get the Energy Drive system to work properly; The ED system revolves around using the D-Pad to let you use super stylish moves; it takes a long time to get to use them properly, but the stupid thing majorly is you could beat the entire game with just your beginning Aegis Suit and no upgrades, and that is something I hate about it. Other than that, it's pretty cool, but I'd rent it before anything. |

Just change the clap sensitivity meter to a lower level, and tap the black ring on the sides of the bongos. Me, I hit the right side 'cause I'm more right handed.. I am somewhat ambedextrious though.. but not quite.. |

They just didn't seem to flow too well. But, I'm sure that once I get use to the controls, it's a fun game. |

From what I've read on PN 03, you either love it or hate it. It never interested me too much, so I never picked it up.

I was interested in the game, but sadly Capcom let me down. It had potential, but crappy story, clunky like controls, and shortness just didnt cut it...

A couple of months ago, Foolio, a friend of mine suggested that I buy the game. I looked into it, and decided that I should rather save my money for all the Fall titles coming out later this year. My plan worked out. I'm getting a DS today with Super Mario 64 DS and I already own four of the best Fall titles out there. - Pikmin 2
- Donkey Konga
- Metroid Prime 2: Echoes
- Paper Mario: The Thounsad-Year Door
I think I did the right thing.  |

I think I did the right thing. Yeah, I agree with you. Those games do top PN03. |

Definitely RENT the game before you buy, or just buy it at at an extremely cheap price. At SAmGoody I saw it new for 40 bucks, and I definitely wouldn't pay that much money for P.N. 03. I'd rather pay what I did. |

Well, I finally finished the game in terms of storyline, and I have to say that was the cheesiest ending ever. The so called mysterious client was her clone. I think that explains her mysterious past, lmao. So, IMO, a cool game, but would prove better in future installments. Look for a review sometime soon. |

PN03 is underratted. Its actually a great arcade shooter. The ones who doubt it think its too repitive. Believe me, if the main character was Male, IGN's score would be 2.0 |

Believe me, if the main character was Male, IGN's score would be 2.0 In my opinion, it's a very solid shooter/action game, but you've got to admit that the enemies having no particular weakness is pretty pathetic, right? Other than that and a few flaws, it's a good game ^_^ |
