The television series Jackass may have been canceled but it’s popularity doesn’t seem to have suffered too much, as evident by the continual release of films and now a video game. Indifference doesn’t seem to be a popular opinion with regard to the series; most people like it or dislike it. So what of the game? Mike Jennings shares his objective evaluation.
Conclusion (4.8):
Fans of the show will be the people who get the most out of the Jackass game – it’s crammed with references to the show and the puerile humour that they’re so fond of. For the uninitiated, it has limited appeal, as the minigames are well designed but unspectacular unless you’re familiar with the shows. It’s hard not to think, though, that by waiting until 2007 to produce a game that it’s somewhat missed the Jackass bandwagon.
