    Poor execution, no real personality and identical gameplay across multiple characters squash the fun factor like a 50-ton Acme anvil.

    Acme Arsenal has its fun moments, but only if you don't think too hard. [Dec 2007, p.89]

    If you're truly after a vapid brawling experience, by all means, be our guest. Overall, however, AA is a shallow trip down license lane, and that's all, folks.

    Looney Tunes: Acme Arsenal is a seriously flawed game that continually stops the player from reveling in old-time cartoon entertainment.

    It's a below-average platformer in a Bugs Bunny outfit, and that's all folks. [Christmas 2007, p.112]

    Frustrating, disheartening and broken in places: a perfect recipe for making kids cry. [Christmas 2007, p.95]

    Unfortunately Acme Arsenal never really delivers. The gameplay is repetitive and bland, never really offering a great deal of enjoyment. One of Bug’s quips as he topples enemies in the game is, “now this is fun.” We’re sorry Bug’s, but you’re sorely mistaken.

    Dull, repetitive, and carelessly programmed don't even begin to sum up how crummy this action game based on the Looney Tunes license is.

    Next to sharing the screen with Michael Jordan, this game has to be the low point in Bugs Bunny's career. [Dec 2007, p.140]

    There's simply nothing redeeming about Acme Arsenal. It's an incredibly poor, woefully unentertaining use of a great license, and an absolute bore to play. It doesn't get nearly enough right to be anywhere close to average, and becomes its own worst enemy with a cavalcade of embarrassing glitches.

It had really big potencioal, but like the went 0 afford. As for the character designs they are really cool but some are just off, like Coyote, Road Runner, Tweety... Story itself has lazy writing it could've been much better, nothing new since this is WB property, Battle and fight mechanics are just unblanced and awful, like I said it would be a masterpiece game. And yes... YOU CAN FINISH THIS GAME EASY. All you have to do is go around the enemyes and thats it. I'm not a speedrunner, and this is not a glich, this is an actual gamepley. Only time when I couldn't pass the enemys is on the WORST designed level in history: the jungle level. And thats why I stopped playiong it. I finished this game on PC emulator and it was baggy all over the place, even on PS2.

    NOT RECOMENDED!!!    … Full Review »

    When it comes to licensed games I usually rate these games whether or not they are for their intended niche audiences or potential gamers. I'mWhen it comes to licensed games I usually rate these games whether or not they are for their intended niche audiences or potential gamers. I'm an adult and based off nostalgia to watching these characters in cartoons I was willing to play this game and forgive a lot of the design if it immersed me in a long forgotten episode of my inner childhood. In that respect this game failed in epic proportions. The gameplay was not solid but is playable although kinda unfun and repetitive. Again I didn't really punish this game for lack of gameplay. What is there is playable but quite unpolished and nothing to really inspire anyone to play it. The game is cool in that you can play a lot of characters and in many different unlockable missions/episodes but where the game fails in epic fashion is though sound. The cutscenes have decent character portraying however characters have minimal to non existent animated sounds during gameplay where this really matters. And this is a licensed product, wtf? Right there my interest in the game lost every respect for this software. Without effectively using the licensing to tie in there is really no point trying to go through playing the game it may as well have any name on it.… Full Review »

    Horrible coop system, player 2 always teleported to player 1 when he's went too far away, combat is hard, on easy difficulty you have to punchHorrible coop system, player 2 always teleported to player 1 when he's went too far away, combat is hard, on easy difficulty you have to punch enemies like 10 or more times, no markers where to go or what to do, graphics kind of OK but FPS is low anyway… Full Review »
