Code Lyoko fans: if you're tragically desperate to play a Code Lyoko game, IGN suppose you could rent this one, but they wouldn't recommend it. This title just can't overcome its many mechanical problems and the overall experience isn't satisfying.

PSX Extreme writes: "The PS2 is still going strong, but it's not due to the teen-oriented titles based on Japanese anime. Or in this case, French animation. Code Lyoko: Quest for Infinity is yet another in a long line of futuristic cartoons designed to appeal to a certain age group, and while Neko Entertainment wanted to embrace a few good ideas, they fell far short in execution. We perfectly understand that budgets for such games aren't very high, but if you can't make something better than this, there's little point to entering the production phase. The action/adventure genre is the largest and therefore the most extraordinarily competitive category in the industry, and Code Lyoko isn't able to compete with any solid PS2 action/adventure game that already sits on store shelves for a budget price. It's too bad. As we just said, the theory and concept is sound and could've made for a highly entertaining and even unique experience. But with several crippling drawbacks, the final result is ultimately disappointing."
CheatCC says: "Code Lyoko: Quest for Infinity is incredibly formulaic. The game features a very short mix of running, jumping, attacking, and nothing else. It's playable and the mechanics work well, but it still loses major points for being no fun."
As E3 is a-coming, we expected to have a more barren list of releases for this week. It seems that we were quite wrong about that. New games include anime platforming coming from the big-headed kids of Code Lyoko. NCAA 2009 represents the sports games, meanwhile Go! Explore device finally out in Europe.
