As Bad As They Say?

nia333 · 10-05-2011, 02:53 PM

Im just wondering but is this game as bad as they say. I played it for about an hour when it first came out but had other games to play that weren't as difficult. But now I want to pick this game up again but professional reviews are horrible while there are quite a few good personal reviews out there. Any personal reviews here that ya'll are willing to give?

Early impressions from my first night of rental is:

Cheap, but not horrible. For $10, $15 it might be worth it. Or as a rental. Just don't set your hopes high. Kind of reminds me of EDF; somewhat solid game mechanics except for a problematic camera (learn to click the right stick to recenter), okay graphics, mediocre storyline. It's basically a playable version of a B movie. Not bad, just mediocre.

Apparently, there's a lot of moaning and groaning about most of the achievements. Part of the problem seems to relate to the 'Cool Combo' system, which is basically timing your button presses correctly for an added bonus. Special enemies and a few achieves apparently require this to be done well, so if you aren't good with rhythm (especially hidden, non-displayed ones), this could be a pain to 1K. Alternatively, if you're not for total completion and you don't mind a cheap romp, you might want to give it a try.

This game is fun for kicks. That's about it. I liked it at first but fighting with the camera over and over started to piss me off. I took a 6 month break and just came back to it. Blesh forgot that it's a super grind fest too. Thank god for dress up.

It was a fun little no brainer of a game. I didn't mind how repetitive it became. If you like hack and slash cheesy stuff then you may enjoy this!

I really enjoyed how basic it was, I got it on release date and it was very cheap. The achievements are quite difficult and no explained very well at all, I only got about 470G with A LOT of hours game play!

I have a friend that rented this awhile back. In my opinion the gameplay sucked, graphics (besides cutscenes) sucked, and the controls also sucked

It's just a basic spectacle fighter with the novelty of lightly dressed female characters, although I am impressed that a bikini can offer the same kind of protection Chuck Greene and Frank West have.
