    Isn't quite the RPG it originally promised to be. However, the great fighting engine and deep character customization makes Virtua Fighter Cyber Generation [Virtua Quest] stand above the average 3D brawler. [JPN Import]

    The action is mediocre at best, and the platform elements feel sloppy and unrefined. The graphics and sound are equally forgetful. The only glaring problem comes by way of the silly camera. It really gets in your way and detracts from the overall experience.

    The platforming and fighting controls are a little unwieldy. [March 2005, p.106]

    I found myself repeating ("stupid") endlessly as I writhed and winced my way through this lifeless and contrived adventure. [Jan 2005, p.119]

    How could a game with so much potential end up such a mess? [Feb 2005, p.100]

    What we are left with is a game without a defined audience, and is really annoying. Maybe they'll make a sequel- a fighting game where you just smack Hayami up and down the street. I'd probably play that.

    Fighting in Virtua Quest turned out to be rather dull. While players can pick up special abilities, most of our fights usually wound up in a button-mashing frenzy.

The controls and action are incredibly boring and repetative. The graphix and environments are insulting to Virtua Fighter. The main character looks like a cross between Gohan from DBZ and the 11 year old Frankie Munez. While it isnt really bad enough to earn a zero, it sure aint worth playing either.… Expand
