A wonderfully aggravating game!!!!

If you've ever seen Afro Samurai, and liked it, you'll feel right at home with this Ninja Gaden style slasher. Even if you're new to this twisted tale, you should still enjoy the amazing graphics and easy controls. At first, I loved this games flow. The crazy story and cartoon likeness to every detail, even the voice over by Sam the man himself, but all of that wonder and enjoyment soon turned into frustration and disappointment.
For starters, if you're like me, I couldn't skip through the already viewed scenes after dying in the game, which happens alot. In some cases, you won't even have the chance to get back up to fight before you're dead, or even realize that you're badly hurt to try and find the sporadic healing bears. Once you begin to better understand the combos you tell yourself it'll all be alright, until another slew of foes come charging at you and your attempt to try your new x, x, x, y, y, y, x turns into just trying to make it through so you don't have to sit through another unskipable scene, or Mr. Jackson yelling at you to "cut the rope."
If you're a super player who can make it through any game without a problem, go for it. As I said before, I loved the idea, the graphics and all else included. The actual lay of the game though, horrible.
