N64 fighters have sunk to a new low

The Good
Well, it had decent music. That much I could say.

The Bad
The controls are terribly unresponsive, the characters are unoriginal Power Ranger rips, and the game has very little to offer besides endless fights. I managed to beat the game with EVERY character using just the regular punching attacks, because the AI is unbelievably dumb, and will frequently run off of stages without walls. Everything else besides the music in this game is an absolute train-wreck.

The Bottom Line
Don't buy this game. Don't even give it a second look. Listen to the music if you can find it but do not play the game.

Why do I like this game!?!

The Good
For some reason I like this game. I know I shouldn't, but I find myself drawn to it. It's a Virtua fighter clone, with a ton of flaws, yet I like it anyway. The characters are cool, with fancy combos and imaginative move-sets and the final boss is DISTURBING! For arenas you can select between a normal wall, a damage wall, or no wall.

The Bad
Well, the graphics suck. All the arenas are squares of various sizes, with hideous Persian rug patterns that look like sludge up close. The character models aren't much better, with awesome costumes but pixelated edges and static features like hair that stab right through the fighters body. There's nothing to unlock, and although programming a robot with your moves is cool, nobody else plays this game so it's kind of pointless.

The Bottom Line
In my opinion there is one game out there that sucks royally and only 4 people like it. This is one of those games, and I'm one of those 4. Approach with caution.
