Electronic Gaming MonthlyPlaying Tao Feng is a lot like diarrhea; the longer it lasts, the more irritated you get. [May 2003, p.134]
-
Unfortunately, some good ideas are handled badly and some basic, necessary rules are strangely ignored, leading to a thoroughly sub-par combatant.
-
GameNowOnce you see through the game's flashy veneer, its true nature is revealed - that of a somewhat stilted and deeply flawed fighter. [May 2003, p.52]
-
Xbox Nation MagazineTrite and laughably cliched in screenshots, Tao Feng simply falls apart in motion. [Apr/May 2003, p.82]
-
GMR MagazineSporting spiffy 3D graphics but little in the way of bang for the buck, Tao Feng quickly sinks into mediocrity and takes up permanent residence there. [May 2003, p.65]
-
So easy on the eye visually that if you saw a demo of it running you might actually think it was going to impress you. But keep watching and, like a drunken rejection from a girl in a nightclub, it will quickly dawn on you that it's not going to happen. Like the gameplay, a solid base was never built upon and the end result is just boring.
-
I found this offering to be an uninspiring experience, wrought with annoyances that many modern fighters do not suffer from.
-
It takes a few stabs at innovating, but alas, it's turned out to be worse than mediocre: it's lousy.

BlueFalconFeb 7, 2005I've played about 250 xbox games, and would rate this as the worst out of all 250.
