For a game from the early life of the Xbox it is good and it has nice features such as limb damage on characters as well as destructible environments, body damage, and a plethora of moves. The controls are not as tight as they could be but part of this is simply how unsuitable the Xbox controller was for fighting games. Also, the difficulty for the game, coupled with the controller challenges, makes the game pretty tough so start at Easy early on. With all of that said it is a good piece for a collection since this was one of the many exclusives that defined the early life of Microsoft's first console and it is better than Kakuto Chojin.

Not a great, nor even good, fighting game. Got it because I once played a demo of it and I was curious. Game came in good condition.

I bought this game because I recognized it from playing the demo on the "Official Xbox Magazine" from a few months ago. I was looking for a bargain price on a familiar title, and this is the one I chose. It's actually a pretty decent fighting game with the usual "power up" attacks, but also including "limb damage" which means that a limb has been damaged enough to make a character limp or whatever and only do half damage with the affected limb. THere's a decent tutorial in there too.. no "hidden moves" that I'm aware of, though some of the patterns you have to go through to trigger specific attacks may seem daunting at times.. especially when you discover that the distance to your opponent sometimes changes the effect of pushing specifc buttons.. (ie- a combo might not work if it requires you to be closer, or further away from your opponent. However, all in all, this game is worth getting if you can get it rediculously cheap. It IS entertaining, though not likely to appeal to the hardcore fighter game fans. It's kinda' like Dead or Alive in some respects... not as engrossing, but still pretty good.Read full review
The reason why i bought this game was because i played the demo to alot and i just didnt want to leave the rest of the game to imagination. Things that i like about the game are the graphics its looks very good, the controls respond well, i like the variety of characters the game provides, the fighting arenas are also very detailed and it works. What i dislike about the game is that although the controls respond its not so easy to do combos or even some basic attacks for beginners aleast, so i cannot recommend the game for just anyone. the reason i decided to buy this game is because is because i like it alot, i like fighting games most out of any genre of games, i could buy it for cheap on ebay which is alot cheaper than any where else i had checked before buying the game. overall this game is not just for anyone but it still is a good game.Read full review
