I went out and bought Blinx today and got through the first level. Not too much I can tell yet, but I'll give you my first impressions.
The concept of the game is great. The time manipulation is the best part. You really have to use your head in this one to unlock secrets and kill a few bad guys. The controls are pretty simple, but as any other game....it takes some getting used to. The camers angle isn't too bad either. I've read a few reviews that the camera angle sucked. I don't see it. Again, it's a new game and it will take some getting used to. The graphics are pretty sweet. Runs smoothly(even when time manipulation is in effect) The backgroup kinda has that Tim Burton/The Nightmare Before Christmas feel to it.
In closing, I think that anyone who like the Mario series should pick this one up.
