    Just a fun game to play. You won't break any brainsweats, but you'll have a heckuva time beating the wacky characters you come up against. Irreverent and imaginative.

    Despite blinding us with pretty visuals and spot-on gameplay, there was always a nagging feeling that Inferno couldn't keep it up for long. And we were right … there's nothing to stop you tearing through this in a couple of hours. [May 2004, p.114]

    Has just the right balance of easy controls, tough opponents, and hilarious visuals. It's also bargain-priced, which is a plus. [Summer 2004, p.44]

    Though the fights do lack in variety and the number of boxes is kept at a minimum, the overall style and presentation of the game more than makes up for it.
