  1. Nice touches are strewn about the game such as dust clouds that arise in the wake of your characters, bright visuals that can blind a cat and my favorite, minute versions of your characters by the energy bar that mimic your character's current actions.
  2. It is a lot faster paced than "Blade Warriors" and surprisingly you can somewhat button mash in this game (Usually doesn't work out though since the game requires a massive amount of skill).
  3. Certainly not the revolution in 2D fighting games that Arc System Works describe it as, or we were hoping for. We won't bore you with any more of the Greek myth or ornithology laboured analogy crap, we're sure you get the picture.
  4. 72
    The bizarre decision to include the turn button as part of single player, a lack of a story to keep you interested when you're playing solo, and the fact that the Xbox version is going to support online while this one doesn't really takes away from the experience.
