The Good---------

-The Gameplay runs really smooth. Shouldn't take you long at all to get the controls down. If you fully upgrade Rubi you'll have a lot more fun and tons more to do.

-Rage mode is exciting. The whole screen turns red and Rubi goes on a killing rampage. Things speed up, the music kicks in, and you go on a bloodlust. You can rake up a 60 chain kill combo pretty easy.

-The auto-aim and slow-mo feature is pretty nice. This game wouldn't have worked with out it. Once you have the acrobatics down playing areana mode is pretty fun. Which is where tons and tons of gunners/ guys with bats go after you and they continue to re-spawn. It's a nice time to accumulate "style" points.

-The game runs on rails. Normally I hate games that run on rails. But again it something that works for this game. Because it always keeps in you in the action and you always know where you are going.

The Bad-------------

-Take the "Film affect" off... Unless you want a headache. It was cool and different for the first 10 minutes. Then an hour later it gave me a headache.

-Still feel like they rushed it. I've discovered two bugs in the game. One of which leads to a crash. So just be ready to restart the system.

-You probably won't be urged to play this game over and over again. So play it on it's hardest difficulty then push it to the side. It's fun, but it's only fun once or twice through.

-Graphics are weak. After the "Film affect" is off. You'll be asking yourself "Is this Dreamcast?"

All in All-------------

-It will keep you entertained. This game has taken a long time to be realesed. Yes I do feel like they could have done more with it, but I do feel like they accomplished the tone and idea they were aiming for. Which is over-the-top senseless action, explosions, and gunplay. Glad I have Gamefly though. I don't think I would have bought it. I thought it was going to blow, but it's honestly a good rent.

70's Kung Fu movie, turned into a game.

First thing to say is: Extremely original. Great action game...but it gets repetitive.

Gameplay: Action/Shooting. Aerial shooting in slow motion, gets old.

Graphics: Average graphics, nothing to brag about. But cool noise filter look for an old looking style

Sound: Great! classic music, and voice acting is cheesy like a 70's kung fu movie.

Replay Value: Finish that game once, and get half way through your second time and stop.

Bottom line, good for a rental.

When first I glimpsed the promo for this game I thought 'I gotta have this!' So, I basically conducted a stake-out of my local Blockbuster hoping that one day the dolt who had consecutively rented this 'gem' would eventually have to leave the cold comfort of his mother's basement and trudge off to work.

Amazingly ... the game was never returned. So I cried in mourning, but, soon found myself distracted with Call of Duty.

After attaining enlightenment and finally subscribing to GameFly, this game was the first in my queue. I was a bit put-off by the previous reviews, but I wouldn’t be denied! Alas ... they were right.

While this game seems to embody the concept of 'epic' in its approach to combat and acrobatics, general bad-assery ... I just did not love the gameplay. Granted I have a an embarrassing aim/hit ratio, still, it was a bit difficult to grasp the controls. Some of the cinematic transitions leave you with a skewered FP perspective which hinders you jumping from rooftops, walls, etc.

Overall it was an 'ok' game. Wish I could offer something more profound but ... eh. 6 out of 10.
