Play Magazine

A remix of sorts that's shockingly nearly as gorgeous but tragically just as bad, if not worse in exactly the same places - character physics and collision. [Feb 2003, p.90]

It's awful... A standout in crap execution.

Stay far away from this game as even a rental would be grounds for a lawsuit against TDK for "cruel and unusual punishment".

A series of frustrating elements add up to an overall inferior experience.
