    If you get good enough at Sifu, you could probably run through the entire game without dying once. It’s the ultimate, get annoyed, put the game down, come back later and make tons of progress, type of game. I will say though, at one point, I was so frustrated with myself I thought I was going to eat my controller. Anyway, it nails so much on its first go that I desperately want this to be the start of a new genre. Sign me up for more. Make a Matrix spinoff if you’re feeling nuts! [RPS Bestest Bests]

    I do think Sloclap did their best. It’s obvious to see the love for martial arts movies when the game recreates the infamous hallway fight scene from Park Chan-wook’s Oldboy. I also think that despite developers and consultants doing their best, the criticisms facing Sifu are valid. Sifu is neither all good nor all bad. It just is, and it’s our job to listen to the people from the cultures Sifu pays homage.

The combat has depth and is easily the best part of the game. But it feels incredibly repetitive. After a few runs on each level, you quickly learn the enemy attack patterns. However, they are not telegraphed all too well.… Full Review »

    It's not bad. If you compared how much they improved from Absolver they also lacked a lot of other aspects. Fun and frustrating fighting game.It's not bad. If you compared how much they improved from Absolver they also lacked a lot of other aspects. Fun and frustrating fighting game.

    Personally the price of $39.99 is questionable for this type of content, looking forward for DLC if any in the future. Not really much to do other than replay to do it better than the previous. Game is also pretty linear with a couple hidden or locked paths.

    Receives a minus because of epic game exclusive, for now.    … Full Review »
