MediEvil (PlayStation, 1998)

Normally, I only write reviews if there aren't any posted. But this is one of my all-time favorite games, unique when it was released and worthy still today. It isn't the hardest game or even the most profound. The gameplay is good, and the basic plot is effective. But the whole thing is so wonderfully and creatively done, dark and yet amusing. On the surface, it kind of resembles Ghouls and Ghosts or something, but it has an excellent flow and is very entertaining in presentation. Again, one of my favorites.

I love this game, just the way you meet new challenging bosses, great weaponry, honeslty a great well rounded game that deserves to be played by the people who love role-playing games. its graphics are great due to the time it came out but still a game that will make you want to play again and again also a great kids game, Love it

So, I purchased this item with my lvong boyfriend in mind. I knew he, as well as I, had been looking for this ganme for almost a year. Seeing as it was Christmas time (at purchase), I fiigured it would be the perfect present. I purchased the item around December 18th I believe. I paid via paypal for this one and included a message to the seller stating, I need this by Chrsitmas, please let me know if it will be a problem getting it by then. Well, Christmastime came and went. So I sent the seller two emails alluding to my dissatisfaction. It was right before the New Years when I got a response. It was simply stated that the seller was out of town and even if the item had gotten returned to him, he wouldn't find out for another week. No apology keep in mind. So I waited and waited. And sent several e-mails saying that I was very disappointed with this transaction and the seller's lack of initiative. This continued for three weeks until the seller said he was sending me out a second copy out of the kindness of his heart. (Keep in mind that I had paid for shipping insurance!) So I got the second copy only to find just the disc. Not the original jewel case nor the manual that I had paid for. And I still haven't recieved a apology from the seller. I send yet another email stating that I wanted some kind of redemption for the missing jewel case and manual. After several emails we agreed on a five or six dollar refund, I can't remember. Well, before he would send me the refund he sent me a email trying to barter over feedback. He said that before he would send me the refund he wanted to be sure that I would not post negative feedback about the transaction. Can you belive it?!? This guy was now trying to blackmail for the refund over feedback. He said how negative feedback can hurt his reputation as a seller and that does not allow him to provide for his family! The nerve of this one! Now, had I been smarter in the beginning, I would have checked his feedback becuase he has numerous negative and nuetral responses. I told him to refund me what I was owed and if he got another negative it wouldn't hurt his credibility any more that it had already been hurt. Feedback tends to speak for itself. So, he sent me the refund (Only becuase I had been telling him I would report him for fraud this entire time) So he got the negative feedback that was deserved. And I still never got my apology! What I did get was a email at the beginning of February from him aksing if I wanted to retract my feedback and he would retrack his. Well, considering I have gotten gleaming feedback from all other transactions, I told him that my reputation had not been tarnished and there was no way that I would retract my feedback. And seeing as though, he has had numberous negative and nuetral feedbacks, I thought it didn't hurt him nor his credibility becuase it was shot in my mind. So this is the shortended version of the worst transaction I have ever had in my ebay history! Just in case you were wondering, I haven't purchased anything since. My adivce to everyone out there is please check the feedback of the seller you are buying from becuase it truely does speak for itself.

Years ago, I had the demo disc. The moment I played it I fell in love with the game. I bought the game again and just bought the strategy guide. This is a great game and I recommend this game for gamers who like an action-packed fantasy game.

The game i have been wanting to play for awhile because it was a game i played when i was younger, so i got a chance to stroll down memory lane.

The game is developed by first party Sony and somehow it doesn't get the love it deserves. The game is a hoot, it's charming, loaded with great level design, fantastic and often hilarious voice-acting, tons and tons of weapons. Collecting souls to fill your Chalice is the best part; with it you head to the hall of heroes to claim your secret weapon. Lot's of levels, inventive and clever boss fights. The combat is a bit loosey-goosey and difficult to aim at times but it can be easily overlooked by the rest of this gem of a game.

This is an outstanding game. It is interesting, enjoying, funny, and invokes the players thought while in the game.

I had this game back when the PS one was the "hot" gaming system. I really enjoy this game even though it's not as challenging as a lot of games. I sold my PS one and all of my games a few years ago and recently purchased a PS2, and I just had to have this game again. Overall it is a great game if you enjoy role playing games.

I wish you could still buy this one. It is very rare to find anymore. Unfortunatly we have kids, and this game got destroyed. I havent been able to replace it since.

One of my all time favorites! Everything about this game is awesome. I played it over ten years ago when it was new and now I just wanted to play it again to see how far games have progressed. It still seems fun and difficult at the same time. I am enjoying it all over again.

was fast shipping and disk in good conditions would buy from this seller again was verey attentive. one thing i would tell seller do not ship items until paid for you might get ripped off. but really was a good buying experiencee.

cool game fasho! know im sayin?!?!?!?!!!!!!!!!!?????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???????????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????????????????????????????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ok i think i got 100 characters! =]

Had this product in past, but became damaged, so ordered this item used and love the game, once again, however does get stucked and is defective

It is pretty good considering how old it is. Also I like to destroy the zombies with all the different weapons. It is actually a very well incorperated game for the age. Rated T for teen. It doesnt have very good graphics, but very fun to play. It is more of a RPG/Action/Adventure game.

Great game for the time

10/10 Graphics

AMAZING GAME. ITS A MUST BUY FOR ALL AGES!!! :DDD

hellow ebay buyers, this is a review of one of the best psx games ever. you play as sir daniel fortesque a brave knight that they said led the army of gallowmere to fight the evil sorcerer zarok from rowling the world. they said that sir dan beat zarok, but was him self mortely wunded and died. during the game you find out that Dan did lead the army of gallomere however he was the first one to die in the fight. zarok is now back and resurrecs a undead army, and acsedently revives sir dan. now sir dan has to difeet zarok ones and for all. this game is filled with lots of action and puzzels. one thing i love about this game is its voice acting its kind of over the top but it is apropret for every thing in this game. another thing i like is the levels every level feals like it is coustom made for the game so you dont fell like you are playing the same level every time. you will also incowter some miny movies. the movies have ecselent grafics for a psx game. one thing that is not so grate about the game is its graficis they look poor but if you play it for 5 minetes you wont notes a thing. another thing that i dont like the games bad controls you cant use the anolog stick you have to use the derectinole pads wich is ok but some times i wish you coud use the anolage stick. this was the first game i have ever played and it is my favoret game ever. but anuf medievil is just about fun,fun,fun and i realy recemen this game if you have a psx or a ps2 go buy this game and if you dont have a psx or a ps2 go but one so you can play this game. MEDIEVIL ROCKS !!!!!!!!!

Thank you soo much!!! Cant wait to play this game! Excellent shipping and just as described! Wonderful pkging, too! Thanks!!! =)

They just don't make games like this anymore. Very cliche I know, but it's true. This has to be one of the better games for the PSOne. What other game gives you the option to use a chicken drumstick as a one hit kill weapon? It's such a dark, creative, quirky, and brilliant game. Though the graphics may be out of date, the charm and wit are still shining. The soundtrack alone is just amazing, so dark, yet it invites you in. This is a game that children and adults can appriciate alike. With it's haunting soundtrack, it's outdated visuals, but still so much eye candy, and plenty of fun little secrets, it's no wonder that even after ten years since it's release, "MediEvil" still has quite the cult following. That must mean something for a game made back in 1998.

Long and short of it, I remembered the game from the demo of it that came out like ten years ago with Pizza Hut. It's a pretty fun game, the controls are a bit iffy, but I would recommend it.

Reasonable price, and game works as advertised. No problems!Game loads fine and disc was clean when purchased, no scratches or clouds.

Not my favorite on PS1, but pretty close. A lot of the game has you dealing with different scenario's, whether they would be riddles, not taking out the towns people, even at the very end of deciding how much health you skeletons need. The story at first I thought was pretty mediocre, then I found out that the main character actually died at the first siege, and now has a chance of reclaiming himself as a hero, it's that type of hook that really draws me to liking the story as not being mediocre, I wish more games could be like that. The weapons are not off hand, most consist of cutting instruments (swords,[enchanted and magical], axes, etc) blunt instruments(hammer; my favorite), and of course long-distance weapons(bow and crossbow, even lightning), and their is also special weapons that you have to work to get (Dragon Skin); which sets this game apart for it's varsity. Yes, it's a linear path, but it's a path that takes many turns, that lead you to either a surprise, or what you are looking for. If you like platform or action games, you can't go wrong with this game.

Great game, cool levels, awesome characters. It is fun and challenging, but toward the end the game seems to lack creativity, and the levels are a bit off the wall. Granted it is still a good buy and a Playstation instant classic.
Buy it and collect all of the Chalices!

Game is challenging but If your like me, without a memory card, you might find yourself having to restart the game over and over again till you complete all the levels. But thats okay, I like the game.
