    The TakeOver is an absolutely solid beat-'em-up experience. Get past some of the shortcomings, like constant load times and bad cut scene art, and you have a title that uses a solid base with additions that feel just right for the genre without going overboard. It's fun either solo or with a friend, and while online play would've been nice, fans of the genre will enjoy every minute with the game.

Each playable character can punch, kick, use special attacks and a firearm. Melee weapons can be found on the ground. And you can also unleash a "Rage" mode and a missile strike. Along with the slick graphics, the game has a musical score that was partly created by "Streets of Rage" composer Yuzo Koshiro. This indie beat 'em up is good fun with a deep enough combo system. I would rate it with an 8 out of 10.… Full Review »
