I know we live in a doomed timeline because we don't have yet a competitive scene for the bumper car minigame.

this game isn't really standout in any sense, it's just a 2 player brawler based on a movie, kind of along the lines of shrek 2 for the gamecube as well, but it's at least not TERRIBLE, there's just nothing worth playing it for. not fun at all single player and just barely fun with a friend to play with

Not gonna lie. This game is a HUGE guilty pleasure for me. But yeah, it's not the best, but it's fairly good.

This game has a surprising large amount of content. Tons of levels and minigames means it takes a while to beat and complete. Overall not bad.


I had the GBA version, and had a ton of fun playing it, but the game is repetitive and boring by today's standards

one of the first games I ever owned. I probably wouldn't like it today but for 10-11 year old me who was new to portable video games this game was utterly mindblowing after sitting through lots of Plug-N-Plays and PC edutainment and Barbie games for years beforehand

I remember enjoying this game so rating base on that.

i dont rebember shit of this game

Button masher: the DreamWorks movie tie-in edition.

No really, that's exactly all I felt whilst playing this one. You're just doing an endless array of button mashing for the most part even if there are a few short sections to break it up a bit.

As far as the DreamWorks games I've played goes, this is certainly nowhere near as good as say Madagascar.

Kinda cool that the game does it's own thing story wise rather than just adapt the film's plot though even if it is forgettable...

kinda like the movie itself which I hardly even remember at all. Not even the fact it had Bruce Willis in it.

Yeeeeaaahh...

I'd rather read the comic. Which doesn't say much, because it's usually pretty good.

Yeek. It's unfortunate to have revisited this and come out with nothing of note after an hour of playtime. It's possible my distaste is linked to the initial property not being particularly good to begin with, but the gameplay loop here is abysmal and the visuals are equally poor. And while playing this, I'm pretty convinced I barely played it as a kid either? I only remember the first three or four levels and pretty much nothing else. I guess even kiddo me thought this was trash, I dunno.

Over the Hedge is also probably slightly more enjoyable with a friend. It's pretty much just a mindless spamfest gameplay wise and there are no levels to explore. They're broken up into these little sections where you just fight enemies and there's rarely anything to see or look around in. And the subject matter of the film forces the environments into a very narrow structure. It's just suburban streets, house backyards and middle-class homes throughout lol.

Genuinely had trouble latching onto a single thing I enjoyed here. Every character's moveset is also identical outside of some visual differences. Game sucks.

When I first played this. My copy for some reason was in Dutch.

The sheer audacity to make your video game a sequel to the mediocre movie you're adapting is just incredible, total props.

Dumbest ally ever. Literally BROKEN PC PORT. WTF the game crashes if you go too hard. and the two players mode is literally broken.

PS: I´m the world record any% easy of speedrun.com

Maybe I should have stayed under the Hedge

the best licensed games ever made

hello kind sir would you consider aiding one such as i in my search to locate my own nuts

Over the Hedge, ps2. Over the Hedge, ps2. Over the Hedge, ps2. Over the Hedge, ps2.

Still don't know why I had this game.

Fuck Activision


I remember this as being a fun little co-op game with my brother during simpler times.

Probably the most fun I had with Over The Hedge was in the minigame mode where you could smash golf carts into each other and see who's got totally destroyed first. This was an okay-ish hacknslash style game but even as a kid I could feel the campaign overstaying its welcome. Adults will absolutely grow bored long before they finish it. There are some weapons to try out and the locations like a roller coaster can prove visually interesting, but it's a pretty shallow experience.

The
The Story takes place during the last act of the film and after it, that's not a bad idea since it can give creators more opportunities to show what they can bring to the story. Voice acting is how you would expect from a PS2 game based on a kid's movie, sound like their counterparts, but aren't impressive. The Graphics are good, it looks and feels like the movie, even if the models don't always animate how they should. Controls feel great and makes moving around feel like how you want it too, smooth and responsive. The Gameplay has you go around avoiding the traps from the suburbs to steal food from people's houses and beating up mammals by either using household items and weapons or using your limbs, this is a fun idea for a over the hedge game, it is fun to play, you might start getting bored after a lot of it, but that comes down to people's preferences, so you could complete it without being bored after a while, minigames are alright, nothing special don't affect the story in any way, just for fun, which is fine. The music is alright, some tracks feel good for the situation, others sound out of place to me. Sounds are good, the satisfactory noises make you want to do things more. Over the hedge is a good kid's game that knows what it is and how to make it be what's expected from its film counterparts' fans.
