Product Information
This video game version of The Polar Express is based on the 2004 holiday season feature film, which follows the story of Chris Van Allsburg's children's book. Players board the title train for a ride to the North Pole to meet Santa himself. Along the way, they'll hunt for lost presents, solve puzzles, play mini-games, and meet characters like the Girl Know-It-All, the Lonely Boy, Smokey and Steamer, and Santa's elves. In addition to the train itself, platform-style exploration and collecting challenges also await in the game's other main 3D "chapter" levels, such as the North Pole. This PlayStation 2 version of the game features special support for the EyeToy accessory. The <i>almost</i> real look of the game's three-dimensional characters and environments follows the style of the film, inspired by Van Allsburg's illustrations.
no worthy saves or cheats available on the Pc version, have not played the PS2 one yet
For younger grandkids, this game can be frustrating because you have to start all over again if you fail anything on the PC version. Haven't had the opportunity to play the PC2 version yet.
A kids game ? I'm 60 years old and stuck on the train level food shooting at Puppets sitting + popping up on the right + left seats level early in the game. 5 continues pissed away and starting over with each continue just makes it worse. I'll watch a video of that train and try it again before I decide to dump it.
