In addition to the single-player story, the game delivers 16-player battles through Xbox Live and System Link. Inspired by classic martial arts epics, Iron Phoenix creates a fighting experience that includes rooftop chases, wall-walking, and classic fighting-game combos. Execute bone-crushing moves based on ancient Chinese fighting styles that are motion-captured from real martial artists. Expand

  1. It will take some time to reach a level of Zen with the control system. It takes plenty of mindfulness to reach a state of mindlessness. Once the controls become second nature Iron Phoenix comes to life.
  2. Good game + bad players = a wee bit too much stress for folks like me, but perhaps we'll see what happens with the game again in a few months.
  3. With its surprisingly awful fighting mechanics, busted-up frame rate, and bare-bones gameplay, Iron Phoenix is just a colossal waste of time.

    OK i rated this game on a basis of online play only since it is basically just online. Anyone who has live and likes non stop killing than you will love this game. To give you a feeling of what it is like if you have ever played dynasty warriors that is what it is but against other people. Expand
