Jumper: Griffin's Story is an adaptation of the Movie adaptation of a book series. This movie features Samuel L Jackson on a genocidal hunt to kill a race of people who are portrayed as 2000's asshole "cool". He says the term "Jumper" with the ferocity of a slur. In this game you play as the semi-shadow-esque character Griffin to Hayden Christensen's "White Rice".

This game has a combat system in which each face button attacks from a different direction, depending on camera position. Y Button will always be the back of the enemy, X the left side, etc. There are green sides that will appear that will build your super meter, and red sides that will be countered. This is a fun Arkham-esque combat/combo system, if the game didn't feel like shit. I mean I still got some of the fun of the combat out of this, but this game does not utilize its potential really at all; it's just a slightly cool thing to use for 2 hours in this crappy license game.

The boss before the final boss is really punishing compared to the rest of the game. I actually kind of liked it cause I actually had to play the game, but still its a jarring jump(er (teehee)).

This game has some Super Death Cut-scenes that play randomly(?) when you kill enemies. I would recommend watching this cause some of them are hilariously brutish. Like these Jumper people are just assholes.

Didn't realize there was anyone both brave and unfortunate enough to make a fucking Jumper game
