This is a feature review of the Xbox 360 game James Cameron's Avatar: The Game, from gaming website PlanetXbox360.com - overall the game seemed "average."

Like the film itself, Avatar boasts some impressive tech that takes a fair amount of investment to see in its full glory. On the film side, the movie company is footing most of the bill. Unfortunately, Ubisoft is not about to deliver a 120hz capable HD television set with each game. If you already have a television capable of utilizing the 3D capabilities of Ubisoft's adaptation of James Cameron's Avatar, the game is a no-brainer. For the vast majority of the world that does not, this is not quite the video game adaptation that bucks the trend of shoddy movie-to-game tie-ins. The game was developed as a companion piece to the film, rather than mirroring the plot of the film. It is hard to tell how far separated the two are, since the instant you uncover the mole you must choose between the human RDA forces or the Na'vi; which seems to mimic the plot of the film.
