There was everything I do remmember and much more, giving more dynamic to a very classic gameplay.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As with many Rare titles for the Xbox brand, Battletoads (2020) was met with an unfair amount of scrutiny, ridicule, and low expectations upon reveal a couple years ago. Many bemoaned the art style and the decision to make the Dark Queen a bit less "sexed up." In the end, Battletoads (2020) is actually well-written, well-animated, and is a good beat-em-up when it decides to be one. Its problems appear in its short length, bad pacing, and the shocking amount of filler content given the extended development time.

    As the pejorative term "Cal-Arts Style" continues to be rampantly misused and over applied (most 90's animators went to Cal-Arts, nostalgia junkies); the animations in Battletoads (2020) are a high point despite what people have said online. The characters are fluid, a joy to control, and this can be seen in many of the toad's battle animations. The jokes land for the most part as well despite concerns that the game would be a "no fun ultra sanitized politically correct product.". Although, they do hit you with the worst gag fairly early on, and you'll likely know what I am referring to. There is an excellent jab at those offended by the Queen's outfit change, which was refreshing. I do enjoy seeing 30 year old, entitled gamers being poked at instead of accommodated. The beat-em-up portions of the game really give the player a sense that they are playing a cartoon, and the iconic turbo bikes feel fun and improved. The issue is that most of the game isn't turbo bikes or beat-em-up fun.

    A good chunk of the game's storytelling is dedicated to the biggest toad, Pimple, running off and seeking better friends or peace, or something. So, naturally, you don't have all 3 toads for couch co-op, beat-em-up fun. Instead of just simply making the Dark Queen her own move-set for the beat-em-up style gameplay while Pimple is gone; they decided to create a few half-baked mini games. This is when this game moved from maybe the best thing I'd played in 2020 to somewhat disappointing.

    Most of the game devolves into random mini games ranging from mildly amusing to IPhone shovel ware in quality. Some of these games are simple quick time events, one off gags with no consequence you cant even lose, or much longer than you'd like them to be. One such awful, and repeating, mini game consisted of some of the most boring and simplistic 2-D platforming I've experienced. It'd have been boring for a 2-D platformer created for Postopia.com in the early 2000's as a cereal tie in. It's laughably boring when cross compared to the brilliant indie platformers out there. Many of these mini games are forgettable and crush the stellar momentum the game started with.

    The game is broken into 4 Acts with a varying number of parts. Act 1 is largely speeder bikes and brawling, but Acts 2-3 , and some of 4, are made up of these half-baked mini games. I've never been left so mixed on a game and for none of the reasons I expected to be. I am not sure what budgetary, creative, or other issues may have caused the game to not be entirely beat-em-up focused; but the final product is shocking.

    After years of development the game is very short and so little of it is what fans love about the series in terms of gameplay. I still would say that I enjoyed what was there and I encourage Dlala studios and Rare to focus up in the sequel. There is a lot to like here. It is funny, a good beat-em-up, and there is a template for future success with mildly recycled assets to reduce development time. It may be best to just can the glorified browser games.    … Expand

    I'd probably be one of the only people who could say that one of my first video game experiences in life wasn't Space Invader, Pong, Mario, Sonic or even Crazy Taxi. One of the first games I ever played was Battletoads. My father and I would team up on the SNES in Battletoads/Double Dragon and lose. A lot. I don't think we ever saw the 4th level honestly...
    Anyways, with the above in mind    I'd probably be one of the only people who could say that one of my first video game experiences in life wasn't Space Invader, Pong, Mario, Sonic or even Crazy Taxi. One of the first games I ever played was Battletoads. My father and I would team up on the SNES in Battletoads/Double Dragon and lose. A lot. I don't think we ever saw the 4th level honestly...
    Anyways, with the above in mind I gave this Battletoads a shot (currently free with gamepass).
    Overall, mixed feelings.
    There is a difficulty setting, which is nice for those who don't want the epic challenge that the original Battletoads was. The mindless enemies in tadpole mode shouldn't cause you much trouble.
    The game play features what I feel is a "close enough" style to what it was, with the big hits and the short combos, but it doesn't feel authentic to the style of the original games. Add the tag in out system, which I'm still not sure I fully understand.. and a few eye rollingly lame cut scenes and it just kinda feels like a drag to play.
    Basically, on tadpole mode for example, you are not playing a Battletoads hard game, it feels somewhat similar but not fully, and the story is not exactly exciting or enticing. Playing on one of the harder difficulties fixes this a little, but it's still not the same.

    Overall:
    It is a decent game to play, specially free on gamepass.
    It is a Battletoads game that feels just Battletoads-like enough to say it does.
    But anyone with Battletoads experience should know it's just not the same.

    It's not a terrible game, it just isn't truly Battletoads to me.    … Expand

    Great variety in the gameplay. It bounces between genres very often. The downside to this is that everyone will likely encounter a portion that they do not care for as much as the others. The difficulty was manageable, there were a couple of spots where you just have to keep dying until you get through it (mostly the on-rails platforming parts).

    It's a good time with friends and family, downside no online play as of now, not enough beat em up levels, but it makes up for it by being sometimes a short cartoon show here and there, that's actually well voice acted and funny. It's still a game and a good one at that, with good art style and animation.

    Desde ya, se nota que el juego fue dado a un estudio cualquiera a menor medida no siendo pretencioso, ya sea por el horrible estilo caricaturesco de animación de caricatura de TV actual totalmente genérico o por el humor muy soso y forzado que no saca ninguna risa (donde se supone que uno se debe reír...).
    Lo segundo es que el juego es bastante simplón, empieza como cualquiera hubiera imaginado, pegando piñas por doquier, pero luego este juego es de todo menos un Battletoads: Plataformas bastantes simplistas, carreras con obstáculos, rompecabezas (innecesarios y tediosos), matamarcianos (lo más divertido de lo no pelea) y, lo peor, un exceso de QTE (Quick Time Events) que en ningún juego dio diversión y obviamente mucho menos lo hará aquí, siendo esto lo que más me cansó (junto a los rompecabezas aburridos).
    En fin, creo que desperdiciaron una buena oportunidad de poner al juego en donde se merece. El exceso de QTE y de géneros que no caracterizan al Battletoads es de lo peor del juego, pero también su estilo visual de caricatura actual genérica y un "humor" e historia bastante soso y sin ninguna gracia.
    Hay muchos indies mejores que este supuesto AAA (o AA en su defecto) que van a dar muchísima más diversión (Castle Crashers, por ejemplo).
    En resumen: Lo mejor, la música, que si bien no es ni de cerca memorable va bien con el estilo de Battletoads. Los pocos niveles de puños y los niveles de matamarcianos. Otra cosa buena es que afortunadamente no gasté en el juego, sólo pagué Game Pass, lo jugué desde ahí y confirmé que el juego iba a ser decepcionante (como ya intuía).
    Lo peor, horrible diseño artístico, horrible decisión de poner géneros que no van con el juego con plataformas vacías y QTE excesivos, pésimo humor, sin juego en línea y duración cortísima.

    This here is a faithful reboot to one of the hardest games ever made. Battletoads has a silly amount of gameplay variety for such a short game, and the humor is there too. Too bad the gameplay itself can feel generic at best, and the art style looks like Cartoon Network vomited an 11am weekend viewing all over it. It is a decent couch co-op game at least.

Por encima de las críticas que pueda recibir por su dirección artística, lo cierto es que es un juego muy entretenido y que cumple perfectamente con su objetivo. Resucitar a los Battletoads.

    En lo jugable, el título hace más o menos lo que ya hacía la primera entrega de la saga. Esto es un desarrollo en fases que presentan varias mecánicas. La principal y más famosa es la de beat ‘em up clásico, pero tiene muchas más en forma de carreras de motos en las que hay que esquivar los obstáculos (mítica y difícil fase heredada del clásico), fases de shoot ‘em up de naves estilo twin stick shooter, fases de plataformas en 2d con resolución del puzzles y una colección de fases de minijuegos con QTE, rítmicos, puzzles de diversa índole, etc. en definitiva, siempre pareces estar haciendo cosas distintas. Esto puede no atraer a los fans de beat ‘em up, pero en honor a la verdad, Battletoads siempre fue un poco así, nunca fue un beat ‘em up puro.

    Por otra parte está la historia que se nos presenta como un episodio de dibujos animados que bien podría haber aparecido en Cartoon Network. No es un material que vaya a pasar a la historia, pero sirve de hilo conductor al juego y te echas alguna que otra risa con sus locuras.

    En definitiva, es un juego recomendable si eres un gamer veterano y te gustan estos lavados de cara de juegos clásicos. Battletoads cumple con lo que promete y es bastante fiel al material original. Divertido. Esta en game pass, por lo que no hay excusa para probarlo.    … Expand

If you're playing this alone, it can be a bit of a grind. However, I do like that you can switch between Battletoads on the fly and there are plenty of combat moves. The cartoony art style is done well, but will probably not appeal to many fans. While entertaining, the game doesn't live up to the franchises' legacy. Still, if you liked Cuphead, than you'll probably have a good time. I would grade this with a 6.5 out of 10.… Expand

    Where do I start.
    The game is mediocre at best. The problem is I really don’t know what's going on the screen 80% of the time. the game artistic style and color pallet just giving me the headache. It’s a just badly designed beat’em up. I don’t know what’s been happening with Rare and how the approved this.
    The voice acting is pretty good though.

    Not as terrible as all the angry 30-somethings on here want you to think. If you can get past the new art style (which is honestly fine), this is probably the best-playing Battletoads since the arcade game. The beat 'em up sections are better than they have been, packing more depth than just dashing and mashing buttons until whatever swine or rodent you're wailing on is dead.

The beat 'em up sections are better than they have been, packing more depth than just dashing and mashing buttons until whatever swine or rodent you're wailing on is dead. I also really enjoyed the new Turbo Tunnel section. There are some depth perception issues with that infamous section now taking place in the third person, but it's still far more fun than the one in the original 'Toads or Battlemaniacs. My biggest gripe is the lack of online multiplayer (for a game like this, it's a serious missed opportunity) and that there just weren't enough beat 'em up levels to run through.

    The $20 tag is steep considering the length (my first playthrough was about 4 hours and 30 minutes), but considering it's on Game Pass, it really wouldn't hurt to download and give it a spin. If you can get over the fact that the Battletoads look different and the Dark Queen is no longer a gothic take on Jessica Rabbit...you might just be surprised at how fun Battletoads 2020 is.    … Expand

    Battletoads es un regreso muy esperado por los fans de Rare.

Battletoads de 2020, es una oda a los videojuegos de los 90's; no solamente introduce las clásicas mecánicas de beat em up, sino que también agrega secciones de puzzles, de pulsión rápida de botones y secuencias, o incluso secciones "shoot em up", en su mayoría abandonadas en los últimos años, y relegadas al terreno indie. Y el juego es consciente de ello, por eso, a nivel narrativo se burlan de la pérdida de "relevancia" que ha tomado esta saga en los últimos años; y es una forma de volver a levantarla, rindiendo tributo a un estilo de juego clásico muy difícil de ver hoy en día. SIgue siendo igual de entretenido y "cool" como antes; y siguen quedándote esas ganas de volver a jugarlo para terminarlo con mejores calificaciones y tiempos más cortos. Esa es precisamente la esencia de Battletoads; lo que se suma, a un excelente estilo "cartoon", que a mi parecer le queda mejor que uno más "foto realista", o animado de actuales generaciones. ¿Quizás deberían innovar generando una nueva entrega en 3D y tipo "hack and slash"? Si, quizás, pero está bien que sigan lanzando entregas clásicas que hagan tributo a este estilo de juego, que se siente tan desafiante, como en los 90's.… Expand

Never seeing myself go back to this. We waited 26 years and all we got was 4 stages of beat em up action. The rest is arcade mini games. Xbox did this on purpose to **** fans up so they could be like see we gave you something. Now shut up we didn’t succeed we are never making or talking about Battletoads again.

Dotemu should have been given the keys folks. Dumb art style that looks wonky and terrible. Beat ‘em up portions are so short lived it’s sad.

    Instead, we get a great party title, one that offers a lot of variety and greatly capitalises on the fact that three different people are playing it. It is a good mixture of a game and a TV series with it's splendid art direction and entertaining cut scenes, and it offered me one of the best party game experiences I've ever had.
    But of course, it still has its downsides, like a lack of online multiplayer or having not too much to offer in terms of solo-play. I also wish some of the game modes weren't recycled so frequently and the humour wasn't as unbalanced as it was (though some of the scenes were truly hilarious), so let's cross fingers for improvements on those in, as they prompted, season 2 (whatever that should mean).    … Expand

После нескольких часов игры, перестаешь понимать что происходит, уровни переходят от слабого боя, к куче какой-то хрени, для игры в атоматы. То проходишь уровень для релакса жабы, который унылый как не знаю что, то начинаешь стрелять со стремного корабля в космосе. Уровни на корабле, по ремонту корабля, и выполнения всякой фигня на "олимпийских играх" делал вообще какой-то имбицил.

    The game is simply fun. A reimagining of battle toads that sets the Toads apart in terms of personality and visual flair, and how they feel to play. Lot of complaints about the art style which is sleek and works well for the games tone. Lots of fun animations. If your biggest complaint is you're no longer attracted to the dark queen, maybe reevaluate what you want from a beat em up.

Время шло, приоритеты менялись, и нынче двухмерные махачи с продвижением по экрану у меня не в приоритете. Касательно Battletoads скажу наверное страшную вещь, но релиз Dlala Studios 2020Жанр beat’em up не самый мною любимый, хотя помнится в школьные годы, когда я о Dendy еще мог только мечтать, за то чтобы погонять хоть часок в Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles готов был душу Дьяволу продать. Время шло, приоритеты менялись, и нынче двухмерные махачи с продвижением по экрану у меня не в приоритете. Касательно Battletoads скажу наверное страшную вещь, но релиз Dlala Studios 2020 года для меня является первой в жизни игрой про уже культовых боевых жаб. Видел конечно что-то древнее мельком, но как-то так чтобы проникнуться и самому пройти до такого не дошло и вряд ли дойдет. Ну а Battletoads новомодный случился для нас с женой ради общего развития что ли и на всякий случай, а вдруг зацепит. Итак вкратце сюжет повествует нам о засидевшихся некогда героях боевых жабах Раше, Пимпле и Зитце, которые осознав, что про них все позабыли решили найти себе славных приключений на свои зеленые задницы. Мультипликация в катсценах и вообще в игре своеобразная, но приятная глазу — ставим плюсик. Играть в Battletoads можно хоть втроем на одном экране и это снова хорошо. Бои в уровнях про тот самый beat’em up веселые, красочные, но какие-то уж больно сумбурные. В пестроте красок уровней, вражеских единиц и собственно наших персонажей периодически в пылу зарубы теряешь свое текущее местоположение на экране. Каждый из трех персонажей владеет своим набором приемов, но к сожалению он у каждого достаточно скудный и по сути ограничен парой кнопок + плевки и подтягивание противника языком, которыми пользуешься весьма нечасто. Если бы вся игра была сделана в ключе боев, то наскучила очень быстро. Видимо разработчики этот момент просекли и напихали нам в Battletoads режимов игровых целую горку. Самый крутой из них, который нам с женой очень понравился это конечно же гонки на мотоциклах с видом сзади. Вот это было действительно увлекательно, забавно и при не самой простой сложности было осознание того, что нет ничего невозможного и еще немного, еще чуть-чуть и всё получится. То есть чувствовался грамотный баланс, а вот с остальными уровнями всё совсем не так гладко. К примеру локации с явным заимствованием от старенького Галаксиана делал какой-то извращенец и хейтер всего человеческого. Прошли их не без доли дичайшего везения, по-другому тут просто никак. Была даже мысль бросить к чертям этих треклятых жаб, но смогли мы всё же уже где-то грани нервного срыва прорвать этот кошмар. Уровни а-ля метроидвания показались наоборот какими-то пустынными и скучными… А вот набор мини-игр на панели управления космического корабля показался весьма необычным и занятным. Боссфайты, проходящие в режиме как раз таки beat’em up получились какие-то мягко говоря невразумительные и если бы не промежуточные чекпоинты, то это был бы очередной повод не продолжать эту весьма неоднозначную игру.… Expand
