    Plays surprisingly well on its foundation of three schools of combat: brawler, marial artist, and grappler. Place it next to Japan's best and the game gets pummeled. [Nov 2004, p.75]

    If I was David Fincher right now, I would be looking for the man or woman assigned to approve this project and making sure they never had a job again.

    It's just a shame that it's got quite possibly the worst gameplay I've seen in a fighting game I think ever. When I can't play a game for more than 5-6 minutes at a time, that is NOT a good thing.

    It's just a waste of a strong license. I really hope Chuck Palahniuk, the author of the book this mess is based upon, had nothing to do with ok'ing this game. Avoid at all costs, even if it's in the discount bin.

    Poor combat mechanics coupled with simplistic controls is where Fight Club begins to fall apart. A weak storyline that feels more like bits and pieces from a larger story told through still images rather than animated scenes takes so much more away from the game then they add, making the process of playing through Fight Club more of an exercise in futility than entertaining.

    To be fair, the backgrounds look pretty. [Jan 2005, p.90]

    Sure, it's pretty generic underneath it all, but the layering of sheer badness elevates it to a certain legendary state. Give it a rent, and let the hilarity begin at the fact everything comes off as either a really clever parody of licensed games-or one of the worst things you've ever had to play.

    I really like the menus - they're true to the fight club theme. It's also very cool that they included meatloaf's character - I really like the menus - they're true to the fight club theme. It's also very cool that they included meatloaf's character - the guy with the huge breasts. But like what's been said by most people here, the gameplay is garbage. And yes, the game feels unfinished too. I also hate how one of the unlockable fighters is fred durst. i mean really... who wants to play as that sell out? it doesn't jive at all with the cult/underground style of the movie.… Expand

    Probably the worst game ever. The only gratifying part was reading the horrible reviews it got and to know people hated it as much as I did.

    This game reminds me a lot of Kakuto Chojin, in that it's slow, clunky, unresponsive, shallow and just plain not any fun. The graphics This game reminds me a lot of Kakuto Chojin, in that it's slow, clunky, unresponsive, shallow and just plain not any fun. The graphics are decent, but controls, sounds and story don't have anything to do with the movie. Some of the characters you fight with in the game don't even fight in the movie, like Raymond what's his name from the convenience store. There are a lot of moves, but very Tekken-like, so they all look the same and have no special effects. The blood splattering on the screen and bones breaking at the end of a fight are the only thing cool about this game, but that gets old after maybe 2 fights. Why this was ever developed will hopefully stay a mystery. One of my all time favorite movies just got crapped on. Spend your money on something else, anything else, maybe some bandages so just in case you do eventually buy it, you can bandage your head after you put it through your wall when you find out you just flushed $50 down the sewer.… Expand
