Ah yes, the joy of a horribly translated yet strangely satisfying gun came finds itself unexpectedly on American shores.

Death Crimson OX dies the slow death of mediocrity. While no single element of the game is horrible, none of it is good either.

This game is the very definition of generic; everything about it is lame.

IGN

There's no logical reason why you should buy this game as it barely offers a challenge, contains dated visuals, the game makes no sense, and overall, is no fun to play.

It's hard to recommend Death Crimson OX to anyone but the truly desperate light-gun fanatic.

Game Informer

Gives you plenty of targets, but no real reason to keep pulling the trigger. [Dec 2001, p.113]

Next Generation Magazine

With only a single path through six quick levels, there’s no way for us to recommend this to anyone but gun game collectors. [Dec 2001, p.112]

Dave D. gave it a 2:
I give this game a 2 just because of the graphics, i tried to have fun with this game, but with the bad game play and the story line was hard as hell to follow. the 5 bucks i payed would have been better spent on some barbie game , J/k SAVE UR MONEY , GO GET SOME ICE CREAM.

Flottenheimer gave it a 7:
This game is quite nice, actually. The graphics are fine and hey - it's a gun game - and my lightgun is simply starving after having completed HOTD2 (the best), Confidential Mission and Virtua Cop 2 several times.

J.D. gave it a 1:
This game sucked...a lot....the graphics were great but ...well...horrible storyline, no blood or holes blown in the enemies....it SUCKED.
