X Blades for Xbox 360 Reviews by Gamers

Saddly I lost interest as soon as I started Playing.This game has some qualities that would point to the creators being a "Tomb Raider" fan.The antagonist of the story, the hack and slash action and the monotonous enemies,fighting and arenas bring more of a headache than a adrenaline rush.On the plus side- being able to equip your hero with various magical power attacks that temporarily change her appearance or butt kicking ability does offer some relief from the ever permanent tapping of the X button needed to play this game.For players who love hack and slash, bright flashy lights and good background music without the analytical "problem and puzzle solving" skills found in thought provoking games with challenges to solve such as Tomb Raider, Mirrors Edge,etc- then this game is good.Probably would be enjoyed by a younger crowd.For those that like the challenge of a change of pace from action to character interaction,multiple customizable qualities or Puzzle based arena approach - then this game may disappoint.

All i can say about this game is stay away for your own good. In my 30 years of game play i can say this game wasn't worth the CD it is printed on. Platforming is a joke, The attacks are beyond incompetent and the only good part about the game is her thong. I usually don't write reviews but just let me tell you about the first stage. The art style is a bad mix of the new Prince of Persia and Pokemon. Half of the pots that you are suppose to break you blades wont even touch you have to jump up in the air and when you land your blade might break them. Enemy spawns are erratic and using the b,y, right bumper and left bumper for your supers when you should be able to use the d pad to select them is a joke. The lighting is too dark in a few areas on just try the first jumps the a ledge and you will see what i mean please do your self a favor and wait until you see this for 1.00 dollar us in gamestop before you buy this game cause then you wont feel bad about using the disk as a coaster for your drink when you disregard it in discuss. Good luck gamers.
