Perfect

This game is sooo under rated!

This game does have somewhat of a learning curve but once you get the hang of it, it rules. I would compare this somewhat to a God of War on PS2 type combat. Some folks are all upset because it wasn't an exact rendition of the 16 bit classic. I'm sure folks would of had something to complain about if it would have been too. 16 bit is quite different that today's 256 bit systems. To be honest, it was better that I thought it would be. Seriously, rent it and check it out. This game is totally under rated in magazines as well. Great action combat, alright story line, kick butt graphics!

Played this game for an hour when I got it from gamefly and was completly hooked. Story line is great, graphics are ok but really fit the era. Once you get the hang of the button combos it is smooth sailing from there. This is a deffinate buy in my house hold.

This game is much better than the reviews make it out to be, you just have to approach it with the right frame of mind and appreciate the game for what it is trying to be. This is not trying to be Ninja Gaiden or Devil May Cry. This is very much an upgraged beat em' up.

Give this game a chance!
