Manufacturer's Description
Based on the animated series Futurama, this game is a third-person action shooter featuring the four main characters from the show, Fry, Bender, Leela and Dr Zoidberg. Each character is fully playable and has their own select moves and weapons as well as different playing styles. The game is very straightforward and easy to pick up and play, and features a superb mix of action (shooting, flaming, kicking and punching), agility (jumping, climbing), simple puzzle solving (activate generator to use elevator to reach new area) and, of course, hilarious dialogue.

Futurama is, put simply, fun to play. The controls are excellent, and playing as four characters gives variation. You even get a level in the cockpit of a giant tank as Fry, so there are really five styles of play. The story makes you believe you are really in a futurama cartoon. This is a must for futurama fans, and recommended for everyone else. A great game.

Fun:
Good points:
The voices have been done by the real actors, and the story has been written by futurama writers.
It's well funny and has loads of dry humour,
As well as plenty of action. Most of the levels consist of shooting aliens and mutants, among other things.
Although the game is difficult, you feel really good when you finally finish a level and save the game.
Bad points:
Extremely difficult, but if you are persistent enough to get past this, the game is actually really fun.
Save points aren't very frequent, but all this means is you will play for longer each time.
If you don't like futurama, you may not get the humour. But does anyone not like futurama?
Conclusion:
Get the game to add to your collection. It will take ages to complete, but if you like futurama and/or shooting, this game will keep you entertained for months! (Good value :-p)

This game takes you on a journey through the weired and wonderful world of fututama. On you're way you encounter many of the tv shows characters, who undoubtubly add the inevitable humour. I am a huge fututama fan and enjoyed this very much, I can see why dislikers of the programme however would not like this as much (hens the rating).
You begin you're adventure as fry, the dimwitted pizza-boy who was croigenically-frozen in the year 2000 and found himself popping out in 3000 AD. There are 2 other characters to play as, unlocking them as you make you're way through the game's endless missions and puzzles. There is also 1 further character you only get to use for a short period of time.
The controls are simple, it takes very little time to pick them up. Although each character has his/her own unique abilities so controls differ slightly.
Graphics in this game are much like those used in most simpsons games. They are excellent, showing off the cast's endless adventures brilliantly. Great detail is taken with scenery also, entering places from the tv show you can explore and unlock hidden secrets on your way.
In terms of length this game kept me occupied for a good 2 weeks, playing for a decent amount of time each day. They manage to varie missions very well, keeping you fixated throughout. One thing I will say against this game though is that to the inexperienced gamer it could become quite an arduous task to complete certain missions, I personally became stuck on certain missions for a few days. I find this to make me loose interest in the game, so for any strugglers out there I advise that you find yourself a good cheat's site and unlock such features as unlimited health etc. This can help you get through those much hated missions.
Overall I would rate this game pretty highly, worth the money. If you are a fan of the tv show or are just in need of a giggle, this is for you.

Like the worst episode of the series
I would highly recommend NOT buying this game. While the animated scenes reflect the humour of the programme, the game itself is awkward and poorly constructed. Read more

Disappointing
Well, the cartoon segments are very nice but the actual gameplay is disappointing - somewhat repetitive and occasionally rather difficult in a fiddly sort of way. Read more
