Summary

Great engine wasted on a crap game.

The Good

Considering it came out in '95 (gasp! I was sure it came out in '96), this game has an absolutely terrific engine. It was perfectly fast on my Pentium 166, and it looks gorgeous, what with the (relatively) detailed backgrounds and character animation. I used to play this game quite a bit just to look at it, since regardless of gameplay there's one good thing you can say about this game: 3D, baby!

The Bad

Too bad the game itself is quite bad. The characters are mostly superficial and there's very little in the way of diversity (with the exception of Venam, which is cool). The controls are uncomfortable, the settings are in essence all the same (though they're good for gawking at), and the boss at the ending is frustrating and pointless.

The Bottom Line

A pretty bad fighting game that has an absolutely AWESOME 3D engine.
