    Between the overly simplistic fighting system and weak enemy A.I., the game is way too easy to beat—you can successfully complete the Tournament mode by doing nothing but mashing the A button.

    There's no shortage of better ways to spend your hard-earned gaming money, even when you're rummaging through the bargain bins.
  3. If the lame fighting mechanics, bad music, boring environments (each city is represented by a bare wooden stage with a different backdrop curtain) and lack of gameplay modes weren't enough, the single biggest problem with Kabuki Warriors' single player game is that it is RIDICULOUSLY easy.
  4. Any game that has you fighting against a guy with an umbrella while wearing more makeup than Tammy Faye Baker should never have been made.

    This is probably the best game that I have ever played, even better than Barney's first adventure which had in my opinion the best story ever, I have the best taste in stories and know a good one when I see it, this game has one of the best stories and gameplay, this game was also dificult too, why I had to press A almost three times throughout the battle, whoo I just don't have the stamina for that one. Go Kabuki Warriors. Expand

    I sat on the controller, looked up, and i won the game. Flawless Victory! Kabuki Warriors comes with a special controller adapter so that you can plug in you regular nintendo controller. Even then most of buttons are unecassary. Expand
