Star Rating: 
While the Jim Carrey movie showed us that being bad can be fun, the video game based on Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas proves that being really bad is actually pretty damned annoying. Here, you control the Grinch as he ruins the Whos’ Christmas: He chucks eggs at them, stuffs beehives into their chimneys, and performs other acts of mischief in this 3-D platform game. While all of this is slightly amusing at first, it gradually becomes tedious and boring. Why help the Grinch ruin the Whos’ holiday when you can be busy ruining your own?
