 The Rig is the Ultimate WeaponJan 05, 2000
This game has a cool weapon called the Rig that lets you grab your enemies and then stick them into the traps that they set for YOU. This was also the team that made the first Earthworm Jim game, it was also one of my favorites.It's a completely unique way to play a game like this. I had LOTS of fun with it. If you like Action games, then check it out!

Laugh Out Loud and Stomp Those BaddiesNov 12, 1999
Though most of the puzzles are not mind-boggling, the game is still challenging; especially on the "hard" difficulty where your death comes after about two blows (Yikes!) The soundtrack is very good (the company must agree, because you can pop this baby into your cd player), the action is entertaining and humorous, and the graphics, which may not be the best, are still past satisfactory. So if you want have some fun, get Wild 9.

 An overrated and repetitive platformerDec 16, 1999
I buy every platformer that comes out for the Playstation and I must admit that I found this one to be rather disappointing. Given the amount of hype generated about this title by Dave Perry, president of Shiny Entertainment, I expected something extraordinary. The game does include unusual elements, like the Rig, and finding ways to torture your enemies is an interesting twist. The graphics are good and the sound is OK, although you'll find yourself tiring of the guitar riffs rather quickly. I found the gameplay to be repetitive and the game itself is short by today's standards. The gameplay is very similar to 2.5D platformers like Pandemonium, but not nearly as fun or immersive. Worth picking up if you're a Dave Perry fan. Otherwise, I'd recommend sticking to the truly classic platform games like Klonoa or the Crash Bandicoot series.
 A fun game that can be over bearingly hardMar 29, 2012

The Good: Great graphics, good sense of humor, torturing enemies is fun
The Bad: Unforgiving difficulty, collecting lives is impossible
Wild 9 is developed by those wonderful guys as Shiny who made Earth Worm Jim and MDK. First off, forget the story. The whole story is told in a three pages in the booklet. You play this kid who has this thing on his arm and it releases this energy that can grab enemies and smack them around. You're actually supposed to torture enemies such as throwing them in giant grinders, spike pits etc. You also have to sometimes throw them in a spike pit and use them as stepping-stones, it's very funny.
The graphics are really good for a PS1 game with bright colors, and smooth textures. You can collect coins for extra life, but I found this impossible. There are 99 in each level and you have to get every single one to get another life. So, if you run out of lives you'll be restarting the level constantly. The game is very unforgiving, but if you're good at these games you won't mind. The game controls very well and isn't slippery, unresponsive for slow. Everything is quick and simple. So, if you want a good platformer for your PSP or your PS2, or hey! Even your PS3 pick up Wild 9.
