IGN
While it is a solid attempt at fighting greatness, too many gameplay flaws hold it back from breaking through into the massively popular fighting kingdom.

While the graphics are nice and the character models diverse, the controls are clunky and their combo timing lacks logic (insert barb on Xbox controller here). [Nov 2002, p.144]
Official Xbox Magazine
Crucially, the controls and collision detection feel surprisingly good for a non-traditional fighter. [Dec 2002, p.155]
Play Magazine
One of the prettiest fighters around, packed with seamless models applied to superb character design. [Nov 2002, p.90]

In most instances victory can be achieved by simply hammering away at the buttons and hoping for the best – hardly the stuff of great gaming.
