How Metascores Are Calculated
|
FILM: Somehow, the world's most famous monuments are being stolen - one after the other. Their size and weight are of no signifance for these cunning thieves and their devious mastermind. Police and special task forces from every country are baffled. Tourism is down, and governments are desperate as the list of missing monuments keeps growing - the Statue of Liberty, the Eiffel Tower, the Great Wall of China, you name it...all have vanished without a trace. However, the call has been made, and Charlie has been briefed.

Nintendo Power
Far more cornball than cool kitsch like the films. [Oct 2003, p.140]

Play Magazine
An exercise in repetition and costume changes that's part ragged arcade fighter and part "oh God, why am I playing this?" [Sept 2003, p.80]

Village Voice
Playing each of the three essentially indistinguishable characters in turn (there is no multiplayer option), you punch and kick slow-witted enemies and pick up equally indistinguishable blunt objects to use as weapons, while desperately attempting to follow the "action" through shitty camera angles.

Cheat Code Central
Visually the game just plain blows. The fighting animations are right out of Fighter Maker Light - with stiff looking movement and only a couple of different punches and kicks - although it's widely advertised that each Angel has her own distinct "fighting style". They don't.

Into Liquid Sky
Extremely easy, even on the hard difficulty, and can be beaten in around three to four hours. That is, of course, if you can stand the insipid story, script and overall delivery of the game. Fighting your way through dumb-as-dirt enemies only to find a switch, computer, or really long ladder climb as your goal does not a good game make.
