    A near-exact port of a dated game, and as such is not impressive visually. [June 2003, p.84]

    The Xbox controller, even if you’re using the S-type controller, isn’t suited for a game like this, which really needs six thumb buttons. You can compensate with the trigger sticks, but not well.

    Fights are fast and furious, and there’s no shortage of splashy, flashy special effects.

    I love these characters. The xbox d pad isn't really good enough for proper control in this game, but otherwise it's a solid game. I love these characters.

You'd think they could have added something to this port.… Full Review »
