Pretty fun, but not as multiplayer as hoped for.

So this game took me a few days to unlock everything, I had a good time doing it. The progression from when you first pick it up to when you get good is easy as you start playing on easy to beating it on very hard you just learn how to get better pretty fast. ie the learning curve isn't very steep.
I'd say the gameplay is pretty similiar to powerstone, that old dreamcast game; with the main difference being the power attacks that are similar to marvel vs. capcom. You fill a power power up, do a move, and your super combo goes off. Another great part is the cutscene combos. If you defeat someone while doing one it gives you a different winning scene.
My only gripe is that this game wasn't 4 player. I was hoping it'd be similar 4-player action to the game I mentioned previously, or perhaps Smash bros. but it wasn't. It's just a 1v1. Another problem is that it lacks allot of different levels. It only has 5 normal ones, and you can unlcok 2 more, but only after you unlock the rest of the character.
The bright side is there are allot of different unique characters, and in story mode they all say different, sometimes funny, things to one another. It makes the process of doing story mode to unlock characters not so tedious as characters even have multiple possabilities of things to say to one another.
So all in all it was a pretty good game and it lasted me about a week or so of single player stuff, and depending on how many friends you have that like fighting style games, it could last you even longer.
