Xbox 360 User Reviews

The game will note that it takes time to be ripe. But once you're playing the truth is that it is grateful. There are many games of this type much better but not as bad as they say.

Probably the worst fighting game available on the 360, and it's a real shame too. As a long time veteran of the series, I had hoped to see our heroes make a much better transition into 3D. It is hardly what you would call a button-masher, but neither can you give it credit for being technical, either. The input window is a bit too lenient to feel like you are in precise control of the character, and yet the animation itself lacks any type of fluidity. Perhaps SNK should have abandoned the 3D idea altogether, and given us another 2D fighter, like the rest of their excellent games. I recommend leaving this one alone.

The graphics arent as terrible as the critics say nor are they amazing as a die hard Samurai Shodown fan would say. They are average at best. The gameplay is rather stiff and slightly difficult, which becomes frustrating in a fighting game. Its not horrible nor amazing. Just an ok game that couldve been **** worse.
