  1. Game Chronicles

    A great action game and there is nothing else like it available on the GameCube. For fans of the Spawn franchise, Manson fans, or fans of Goth-horror in general, this is a no-brainer.
  2. IGN

    Challenged by a few technical issues (especially on the GameCube) and held back because of its repetition, it might not grab as many audiences as Namco hopes -- Even if it is mindless, good-looking fun.
  3. GameZone
    70
    Starts out pretty good, but ultimately falls prey to repetition and nasty camera problems.
  4. GameSpy
    60
    It has a simplistic hand-to-hand fighting system, a jerky, broken camera, crappy, jarring level designs, and horrifically frustrating platforming elements. It pretty much just fails at emulating the combat-heavy action games that have inspired it, and you'll constantly remind yourself of this as you play.
  5. Into Liquid Sky
    58
    Just feels like it needs something more. What the game gives you in terms of abilities is a great start but after a while may leaving you wanting more.
  6. 1UP
    55
    A very standard beat 'em up/third-person shooter that has many of the elements you'd expect (minor upgrades between levels, slow-motion special power) and none that you wouldn't.
  7. Total Video Games
    40
    Looks and feels more like a retro offering than a new game.

    I think the game is sweet but they could still do the graphics a little better and the enemys more challenging. I am writing cause i am a spawn fan.

    It has nice graphics but it was too repetitive and easy, just rent it any serious gamer can get through it in 2 days...I did.

Just another McFarlane stab at keeping his baby alive.… Expand
