What players say
this game is just bad, why is the graphics like this, why is the enemy Ai so bad, why am I getting beaten a lot when I'm fighting enemies,
2 more reviews, 1 not recommended
This is the first game I wanted to give a good review but cant. The platforming is garbage. It kills the game. Also this is the first Beat em' up game I've seen where the enemies have more variety to their attack than the playable characters. They can run but you cant. Why? They can do frontward flips and drop kicks but you can't. Why? It makes no sense. Also weapons like whips and bats are worse than fighting bare...
nice old dd game some people says its bad port or whatever about the game but i didnt face that problem since all i care about is bring my partner and coop the game and enjoy it which is what i got from the game story mode , VS Mode, Tower Mode, playable enemy characters etc... its good enough coop game .
