To all the truck drivers out there who are transporting copies of Jumper: Griffin’s Story to retail, please redirect your shipments to Alamogordo, New Mexico. You’ll know you are in the right location when you see thousands of E.T. cartridges moving out of the way to make room for your shipment. Jumper fails on all fronts; animation, sound, level design, control, combat, storytelling, balancing, item management…all of it. It can also be completed in approximately two hours. Initially, I had this listed as another one of its problems, but if you make the mistake of playing this game as I have, I think you’ll agree its short length is its most praiseworthy aspect.

LOL. This game is that bad, huh?

Its soo fucking lame, thank God the achievements weren't too hard. In my book its up there with SuperMan Returns and TenchuZ.

[porschephiliac]

Wow, GI gave it that high a score? Must be because of the 1k in a few hours... for the 360, it's short enough it could have been an arcade title...

[njoymgmt]

yea this game is lame I think 1.75 is being to nice

[MapleMire]

Thanks for the info. I was about to buy this but now its a rent. 1.75!?!? Must be worser than Quake 4!

Superman Returns was miles better than this one (which should tell you how bad Jumper is). At least Superman had a few redeeming qualities (some decent visuals, a sense that the game *could* have been good). This one is crap, top to bottom.

Thanks for the info. I was about to buy this but now its a rent. 1.75!?!? Must be worser than Quake 4! You went from a buy decision to a rent decision because of a score? Dude, it should have been a rent decision to a not-at-all decision! kik

[Og LoCc]

really not a surprise to me

[Hawkins21]

i dont think it deserves a 1.75, it more like a 0.25. this is without a doubt the worst game i have EVER played, ET has nothin on this piece of S@#&

[zFerus]

This is the worst game I ever played :P
WTF were they thinking!

[TooMuchCowbell]

I'm considering if its even worth a rent now.

[FalseHope4829]

lmfao that makes this game the lowest scoring game in the xb360 library. Dude as bad a tenchu z sucked, it was still somehow addicting. thank you game informer, maybe you guys aren't being payed under the table....maybe.

At so many points while playing this game I suddenly realized that my mouth was ajar from disbelief. It's so wretchedly broken I can't imagine how it could even be released. I was fighting the camera more than the enemies, that's not an exaggeration. This is something that you would expect was produced in a garage. No doubt in my mind, worst game I've played on 360 so far.

[ABR]

Its about the movie Jumper! Can't expect much lol.

[o8-ross-o9]

OXM gave this game a 2 also

[zdarko43]

GI was probably paid to give it that much. This game sucks so much balls its retarded.

I would love to know wtf the developers of this game were honestly thinking.

there is ZERO aspect of this game and I would recommend it to NO ONE. I wouldn't even recommend this game to my worst enemy...

I just needed to rant I suppose... It's just so irritating. There is no fun factor, graphics suck, gameplay suck, controls suck, camera sucks especially.

[clintonpigsaw]

I whole heartedly agree that this game is absolutely shocking.
i have 700 points on it so far, without even trying, or looking at how to get them
if i wasnt such an acheivement whore i would have thrown it in the bin!

[Molneze3]

This game is such garbage... And my achievement didn't unlock after beating it fast. I beat it in under 45 min, but i died a few times. Damn game. I don't think i can bring myself to play it one more time!

[DeltaZ360]

I agree that this game is pretty brutal. I had a feeling it would be but 1000 gs in under 5 hours? I think I can handle it for that free reward haha. I hated DiRT more than this game, it was a struggle getting through DiRT, at least this is quick and easy.

I feel sorry for anyone who bought this.

[ensabahnur]

Wow, thats pretty damn low, but the selling point is the time it takes, CHEEVOS (while doing the dragon punch or a fireball)

[Z3R0 S1X]

This has got to be the worst game on the 360 by far! I got an easy 650 points out of it and now I'm stuck on the last part of level 6 because the play control is so bad! Stay away even if you want it for the achievements, the game is just plan terrible on all fronts. I was planning on beating it fairly fast but with the awfull controls, its just a pain to deal with it. Returning to Blockbuster, never to beat it (I'm not renting it again), the controls are so bad its' almost unplayable at times. When I want the idiot to hit someone properly, I intend for it to be acurate not miss the enemy and leave him open for a combo. Games like this shouldn't even make it to market, but its' based on a movie that sucks so what can we expect? Avoid it like the plague unless you want the achievements and then be ready for a headache.

[MikeinSC]

The game takes 2 hours --- maybe --- to get the Achievements. It's not long enough to be the worst game. It has some glitched Achievements (a common refrain for the 360, mind you), but it's not long enough to be truly horrible.

[Spliff Starz]

I was a video game tester for a long time, after falling out of world 4 times in my first playtru I just give up, that was def the worst game ever, and I tester some leapster game lol... That was worst than n Pre-Alpha version.

[master_shake_350]

I told my mum not to buy this, i told it would be a crap game. But noooooooooooooooooooo she didnt listen. O well now i have another easy 1000!!

[Ciconte]

Wow they're lucky this game even got rated that high
