This game has the most masculine women ever. haha
First of all, I want to admit that I accidentally bought the wrong game. I clearly remembered a super Nintendo game that had Power Rangers, and had a two player co-op mode. Unfortunately, this game does NOT have co-op, which was a bit of a disappointment for me. However, I decide to give the game a go anyway, seeing as I paid for it, and it made sense to play a game that I had played for.
Another thing you should know about me is that I really am not that good at video games. I have yet to beat the second level, but that still doesn't mean that I haven't noticed some trends in the game. After playing the game for a few hours, I realized that this was my kind of game, seeing as there is very little actual gaming skill involved. It isn't like a lot of modern games with hundreds of button combinations that I have to memorize and forget the moment I have to use them. The simple attack moves in this game tailor to the new gamer that just wants to push the buttons hard and fast and still be effective. That's the technique I've found to the most effective, which works for me, since that's what I do in the more complicated games of today. Yep, I'm a button masher.
I did notice a few flaws with the game though that really frustrated me. First of all, being a woman, I thought it was hilarious that the pink and yellow ranger essentially turned into men when they turned into their ranger forms. I thought maybe I was just being feminist, but I had a few of my guy friends over to play with me, and they immediately said, "woah, she turned into a dude!" There isn't anything fundamentally wrong with that, but I just thought it was extremely entertaining.
Second, there are very few checkpoints in the game. For example, the second level seemed extremely long to me, and when I inevitably died (near the end mind you), I was immediately transported to the beginning. At this point, i was extremely frustrated, and gave up. However, I know that I am one of the least impatient people ever, and that in combination with my lack of gaming skills was lethal to this game for me.
I'm sure I'll pull it out and play it again every now and then, seeing as it's not a bad game entirely. The first time my ranger turned into a power ranger was electric!!! However, I must say that it probably will not be my favorite game.Read full review
