Wow you people are sad, this game was made the way it was on purpose, He WANTED to have the controls that way, makes the game challenging, If he listened to all you sad gamers, he would end up with a crappy game that isn't original in anyway, so just suck it up your asses and get over the fact that this game is actually very easy, it all depends on how good that player is.
Addicting, cool, awesome music, but damn can this game get frustrating, not that its impossibly difficult, but if you start the higher levels,and don't get an area from the first ball you kill, your screwed with a 30 inch bat
I finally made it far into the game, and unfortunately i still have to limit it to a 4/5. This is mainly because of the boss fights, not only do they last far too long, but they take away from the overall fun, i recall having a great time with all of the retro game throw backs, when a boss fight came, and absolutely ruined my happy moment. They were a waste of lives, not because they were hard, but because you lost interest in the boss fights so quickly.
So if i was to give you one suggestion, drop the boss fights but keep the time progression campaign mode.
easily 5/5 without bosses, but alas only a 4/5
