Giancarlo Varanini of GameTap writes: If you don't know what Jumper is here's a brief rundown: It's a movie starring Darth Vader--um, we mean Hayden Christensen, and he has a special ability that allows him to teleport anywhere and at anytime--kind of like Nightcrawler of X-Men fame. Since this character has no sense of morals, he uses this power to rob banks and perform a variety of other naughty activities that eventually catches the attention of the paladins--a group of people who hunt down jumpers. Yes, there's more one jumper, and the game actually focuses on another jumper named Griffin O'Conner.
Unlike Hayden's character, who makes a few appearances in the game, Griffin seems to be a bit more aggressive about taking the fight to the paladins because of the whole "paladins murdered my parents" thing. As such, Griffin goes around the world beating these guys up in an attempt to not only find out more information about the paladin organization, but also to stop them from hunting down other jumpers.

There are plenty of kids games on Xbox 360 where the challenge barely bothers to raise itself beyond pressing A to skip the tutorial text, as you dilly-dally through the game while achievements pop all around you."
To all the truck drivers out there who are transporting copies of Jumper: Griffin's Story to retail, please redirect your shipments to Alamogordo, New Mexico. You'll know you are in the right location when you see thousands of E.T. cartridges moving out of the way to make room for your shipment.
they charged 49 99 for it while Okami will be sold for 39 99. thats a crime against humanity.
I guess it comes with the territory of being the hoottest casual friendly colsole outthere.
I think ps3 is saved by its more hard core owners who wont buy this crap so they dont make that crap on ps3. also even if ps3 was outselling the wii, you cant make this on the ps3. place it next to uncharted and it will look 10000 worse. becauze of the ps3 power, you either put money in it and make a quality game or dont make it at all.
If you are going to make a movie based game on ps3 you need to start early. start making that game before they even think about making the movie. example start making god of war game. then later on make the movie and release it at the same time.
The cover artist for the game is the main course...or the BAIT.....
i mean Wii developers just want to put a cute and kiddy cover on a whatever game then sell it on like 0.1% of all consoles sold and make some money...
It is like...hell, i say they are more like cheating money than making money
But it must be the first from Game Informer. They usually go with 2 and 3/10 at worst.
Well, games based on good movies turn out to be crap. This game is based on a bad movie...

It never fails; well, I guess there is the oddball here and there throwing a wrench into the mix, but for the most part it is dead on. Far be it for me to keep you all in suspense on the latest verdict, so here it goes; Jumper: Griffin's Story holds firm, and is indeed a miserable game. Clearly thrown together for the purpose of cashing in on what was supposed to be a big time movie, Griffin's Story fails to execute in nearly every category. It is almost shameful that this game was put out there; the overall lack of effort put into the title alone is astounding. Despite my severe agitation and disdain for all those involved in the production of this trite title, which led to my having to play it, I must soldier on. Stay with me because if you still want to play this game after I detail its wealth of shortcomings, then it may be time for you to seek counseling. "
