Doesn't feel suitably giraffe and I can't dodge fast enough.

0.4/pi 

Giraffe-y even.

You know, that guy in charge of Libya 

So anyone played this?
It's really good, very fun gameplay, single player and coop.

Playing alone is a great platformer, mastering the characters is lots of fun.
Playing coop with 2 other people (on the same machine, no online coop =( ) turns it into more of a Little Big Planet experience, with lots of silly physics.

The game is really pretty too (just the 2D character art is a bit average). 

which includes sonic3, sonic and knuckles, and sonic3 & knuckles are the only other games i really play besides quake

This is the game I am dumping WOW for, I am in the closed beta and the game is ace.

needs to be set aside to play through HL2 and Ep1? 

Don't want to set aside an allotment of time to play them, trust me. You're going to waste lots of time playing with the physics, experimenting with different ways to kill enemies, looking at pretty stuff and driving like a prick.

Make sure to play ep2 as well. 

dont have ep2 yet, have had hl2 and ep1 sitting around for ages since sleepwalker kindly gifted them to me.

unfortunately, I thought that might be the case (wasting lots of time doing various stuff) from what I had read, but I just dont have that time right now. maybe I'll put it off till the end of the year when i get some time off and am not overseas. 

is pretty short. i think maybe 8-9 hours? 

So after which level exactly does it stop feeling mediocre and boring? 

hey, a kindred spirit! :P

i've played up to the first level in the blight (after the first trip into the Ways) so far and i would say the game is consistent up to that point, so if you're not liking it now, i'm not sure you'll like it later either.
also, i only noticed later on, but the videos don't play for some reason, so i missed out on a lot of the story (and there's a fair amount of it told in those videos). so if they aren't showing up for you, make sure to check them out in /WheelOfTime/Movies

for me, i'm only playing because i like WoT. 

Good to know... I haven't read the novels, only gave it a try because people here said it was good.
I'm in the second level, somewhere in the White Tower. The videos do play, but they always take some 30 seconds to load, because they are opened externally (wtf). If they don't work for you, it's most likely a Quicktime issue. 

It's all good. Bah. 

I'd keep playing till Shadar Logoth and if you still dont like it, quit. 

I played it to the finish many many years ago. Have no desire to ever do so again, though I have fired it up expressly for Shadar Logoth once or twice in the intervening years. 

Yep, the first 1/3 is good. It goes downhill the further you play I thought, so if your still not enjoying it, don't bother continuing. It was good for it's time. 

I'm going to pretend that I don't see this blasphemy and just carry on with my day. La la la... 

So after which level exactly does it stop feeling mediocre and boring?
- The same could be said about Quake.
