    Me and my friends at HS played this game for a while, it was fun, but nothing special.

    Despite there being a massive selection of attacks at your disposal, you won't use them, and after battling through your seventeenth batch of Oni bastards, you'll soon settle for the simplest and most effective means of disposal and trade any style for progress.

    It won’t win any game of the year awards, but for a piece of brainless action, you can’t really go wrong with Shaolin Monks.

    Shaolin Monks' replay value could use a jump-start or two from Raiden’s fingertips. Despite an arcade port of Mortal Kombat II and a two-player versus mode, there’s simply not enough "kontent" to justify a purchase for most.
