    A title perfect for gamers of any age. It's safe for kids as there's only animated violence and it sports a simplified control scheme, yet it has enough content and challenge to keep experienced adult gamers entertained for quite some time.

    There's enough content and replay value to keep you busy for hours -- even more if you hook up with friend. Factoring all the elements this title offers makes it a no-brainer for anyone who's wanted a fighter that's simple to play, entertaining, and offers long-term value.

    Bandai and Ganbarion hit the nail on the head making this title mimic the One Piece anime, yet placed it into a genre that allowed them to add their own flavor to the series.

    It is limited in a few ways, namely in the number of characters (a total of 16 with unlocks) and the depth of the fighting system, but it is also something I can see as a great party game for groups of casual gamers of any age.

    Fans wil enjoy the customized in-fight dialogue between the characters. [Nov 2005, p.108]

    A passable fighting game, but has nothing to recommend it to people who are not fans of its namesake anime and manga series.
  7. G4 TV

    Light on substance and heavy on style. If you're a One Piece madman who simply has to have everything to do with the series, it's not a horrible game. It's just not exceptional. As a multiplayer party game, it's good for a quick fix every once in a while.

To start, the good parts are the base gameplay, and the graphics. It uses a good looking chibi style. The main gameplay is a 3D fighter, and that part is fun. There are a decent amount of characters, and the fighting is a bit complex in a good way. The stages are all really cool and interactive, and every stage is unique and fun. Story mode is neat but pretty minor. The mini games are awful, all of them are unreasonably hard and mostly not fun. There are a ton of unlockables, but I can't figure out how to unlock them. Oh also it was made with 4kids so the dubbing is weird and they changed some characters names and stuff. Every character has a fancy and unique special attack that looks really good. Thats about everything, good game. Don't spend a ton on it but if you can find a cheap copy, go for it.… Expand
