Kameo: Elements of Power is definitely going to surprise a lot of skeptics. Anyone who loves that 3-D action style adventure of The Legend of Zelda will find plenty to love here. The potential of ten different playable characters all with drastically different and upgradeable move sets boggles the mind when it comes to battle and puzzle-solving possibilities. If Rare can keep the challenge and variety up throughout the entire game, which I have a feeling they will, Microsoft could have a huge hit on their hands. Kameo has all of the elements in place to exceed Rare’s heyday in the N64 days, and bring back the developer’s good name.
The game does a great job of forcing you to switch between characters as much as possible. First, a blue spirit bar in the top left corner depletes as you use one warrior’s special moves. You can either sit around and wait for the meter to recharge or simply switch to another form with full spirit powers. You’ll also find that some warriors are better suited to take on certain enemy types than others. Pummel Weed’s dragon punch will knock an impenetrable metal shell off of these wimpy little white trolls. Chilla is best suited to take on the flamey trolls because he can grab them and toss them off a cliff without immediately bursting into flames like our plant-based friend. But if you do happen to come into contact with fire, immediately change into Major Ruin to douse the flames because rock is immune to heat....Battles aren’t the only reason to get your warriors working together. Numerous platforming elements require teamwork as well. At one stage we had to use Major Ruin’s rolling charge to ramp over a bottomless gap and then morph midair into Chilla so that he could whip out some ice knives to stab into the wall so that we could climb it.
Another major element of Kameo is its triple threat combo system. Combos are divided into three categories: brutal, carnage, and frenzy...You must perform some kind of creative kill to earn a brutal like throwing a troll into spikes or using the environment in some way. To earn frenzies you have to chain multiple kills together. Each death will add a point multiplier to one or several of the three distinct combo categories. If you get enough hits in succession, the game will automatically enter bullet time where you can earn double the points for a limited period of time. In theory, you could have all three categories maxed at 99X by the end of the level if you play smart enough. This means avoiding attacks as much as possible because every hit will reduce all three multipliers by one.
It has been said by our very own Billy Berghammer that Kameo’s visuals are close to the best that Pixar has to offer. I must admit I was skeptical of this claim when it was first declared, but Rare really does come pretty darn close. Every texture in the game has sharp smooth and crisp edges. And if you get really close to a wall or another character you can really pick up so much detail and light reflection from surfaces instead of the ugliness of current-gen titles.
Throughout its long journey from GameCube to Xbox and finally to its home on Xbox 360, Kameo has done some evolving and may just be the sleeper hit of the 360’s launch.
