  1. While Dragon Blade is not like God of War it does have some similarities, at least in the entertainment areas.

    While the graphics are rather plain, the sound is quite good. I never got tired of the main adventure theme, and the thunderclap of your magical dragon appendages displacing the air with their glowing energy is the perfect effect.
  3. This game isn't worth $45 or $50, but it does have a small degree of potential.
  4. Massive levels, decent fighting mechanics and challenging boss battles can't make up for lackluster gameplay, poor visuals and a rather bland story.
  5. Modern action games are expected to be stylish, thrilling, customizable, and visually compelling, and Dragon Blade comes up wildly short in most regards. There's surely a market for titles that feature punishingly difficult, fast-paced battles and little else, but most gamers will likely tire of this drab experience long before the final battle.
  6. It’s good to see a developer at least trying to break the mold on the system, but Dragon Blade is far too archaic and bland to appeal to either side of the Wii equation.
  7. Unfortunately even at 40 bucks, the price is about 30 too much and the game can’t be relied upon to provide anything other than brief moments of cool sandwiched between hours and hours of frustrating mediocrity. Dragon Blade isn’t budget—it’s low rent.

    Overall it is an OK game. The graphics are sub par, but at least they don't lock up. The controlls are so-so. They are fun, but not Overall it is an OK game. The graphics are sub par, but at least they don't lock up. The controlls are so-so. They are fun, but not always accurate. I do find my self getting excited during the big battles. This game can be challenging at times. For most part though it looks like it suffers from a lack of devlopment or budget. It could have been much more with more of both. Who knows? I would say rent this one if you are curious or bored. You're not missing much. Expand

    The most expensive film ever produced in China apparently fails to become the best film ever produced in China. Hopefully the money doesn't goThe most expensive film ever produced in China apparently fails to become the best film ever produced in China. Hopefully the money doesn't go mostly to Daniel Lee, since his directing prowess and scripting is amateurish and cringeworthy. Jackie Chan has always been a hit and a miss and this time he is a miss. You will of course be entertained by his fighting and stunt actions a'la Chan, but it fails to save the film as a whole. Dragon Blade is a great concept and idea being butchered mercilessly to shreds of disappointment. Expand

    A very bad game with horrible controls. It's a chore for me to play and plan to get rid of it.
