I have to give this game a below average rating because it is below average in terms of game play. Please do not strike me with a negative or unhelpful vote. I realize that giving a poor rating on a product opens me up for unhelpful votes. If you think the game is great, please write your own review and explain it's greatness. Now on with the my review... I had wanted a game for my Dreamcast that my kids could identify with. The Chicken Run movie was, at the time, one of the more popular DVD's in the house. Getting the game seemed like a good idea and I had hoped that the kids might have a greater appreciation for my prized Dreamcast and its "old" games. I've read up on games and I knew that getting a game based on a movie is usually a bad idea. Rarely are the games any good, (one exception that comes to mind is the Spider-Man games - the DC game is GREAT!). Chicken Run for the Dreamcast did not dazzle anyone in our home beyond the kids being able to recognize the game packaging being the same as the DVD packaging. This is the only positive note I have for the Chicken Run game. Put the disk into your Dreamcast and you are treated to great graphics up to the last time you have to press the start button - then the CG sequences end and game play begins. It starts out dark and surprisingly difficult, especially given the target demographic of both the game and the movie. You are to gather items in the chicken yard at night while trying not to get caught by the dogs. Get caught by a dog and you'll have to start over. This was not fun or easy for me so I had my 4-year old boy give it a go since he's better at games than me. He could not clear this first round either and he got bored trying. There may be some great game play somewhere in that disk but we got bored trying to find it. That should sum it up right there. We got bored trying to find anything good in this game. The Dreamcast has many great games but this just does not seem to be one. As a collector, I want one of every DC game I can get, but even so, I sold this game. Just don't want it in my collection.Read full review
