Product Description
Platform: Nintendo DS
James Cameron's Avatar: The Game is the official videogame based on the highly anticipated film James Cameron's Avatar. The videogame will take you deep into the heart of Pandora, an alien planet that is beyond imagination. Gamers will encounter the Na'vi, Pandora's indigenous people and discover other life forms the likes of which have never been seen in the world of videogames before. When conflict erupts between the RDA Corporation, a space-faring consortium in search of valuable resources, and the Na'vi, gamers will find themselves thrust into a fight for the heart of a planet and the fate of a civilisation.
- Immerse yourself in James Cameron's world. Peer deep into the heart of Pandora and see James Cameron's universe, from your own perspective.
- Engage in a massive conflict between two worlds. Fight for you cause: RDA or Na'vi. Customise more than 60 RDA and Na'vi weapons, combined. Choose your skills: 20 for each clan. Drive all of the vehicles and ride the animals.
- Expand the battleground in online multiplayer.
- Develop your character and acquire new skills. Create your very own character and acquire skills as you progress through the game.

Platform for Display:Nintendo DS
Fun:
I'm an older gamer and new to the Nintendo DS. I bought mine to play puzzle games (like Prof. Layton) and after watching Avatar in the cinema wanted to experience more of the film - luckily Avatar for the DS is primarily a puzzle/quest game.
First off, the Amazon description is for the wrong product - the closest you get is the Amazon.com description, but even that is mostly wrong. I've extracted the correct bit:
Product Features - Platform: Nintendo DS
* Become immersed in the world of the Avatar feature film, viewing James Cameron's universe from your own perspective
* Experience a whole new epic Pandoran tale as Nok, a young Na'vi warrior
* Use your Knowledge to Vanquish the Enemy.
* Develop your Character using the Pandorapedia
The 4 screenshots on Amazon.com are the only ones to give a true representation of what to expect.
I much prefer using a stylus to the buttons and the Avatar uses the stylus well to control the action. Yes, there is some fighting, which requires quickness and dexterity, but you soon get the hang of the stylus.
The graphics are good, but the map requires very good eyesight to distinguish the different icons. The storyline does not feature any characters or scenes from the film, although the creatures, plants and backgrounds are well represented.
As an inexperienced gamer, I expected more help from the booklet supplied and more hints from the game itself. I wasted 2 days trying to solve one puzzle, which was frustrating but ultimately rewarding, once I worked out the solution.
I expected some video scenes taken from the film between levels, but there are none. And in answer to one reviewer, I believe the little running black & white Na'vi is there to allow the Nintendo to load a new level (not to deliberately hold up gameplay), as the Nintendo doesn't have enough memory to hold the whole game.
I've been playing the game on and off since Xmas and will be sorry when it's over. Currently nearing the end (I think) but I'm stuck and haven't a clue how to proceed. I've tried everything - jumping, swimming, all the weapons - nothing. I'd recommend the game, but more experienced gamers might find the problem-solving a bit tame.

My daughter had been bugging me to buy her this game since she saw the movie. Eventually i gave in a bought it for her, it did take her a while to complete the game first time playing. Since then she has managed to play the whole game three times in one week. She says that she enjoys it but that it could be more challenging and with more levels. I have not played the game myself but from my daughters responce if you want something challenging avoid it but just for a bit of fun to while away the time buy it.

Fun Game
Bought for my grandson who loves it. Although 'used', the quality is not impaired and it works perfectly well. Delivery was as promised.

This is a very enjoyable game though it is a little on the short side.
It only took me a week to complete.

Well, I start to hate the stylus after playing New Mario so beautifully without it.
