Okay. Wow. This game is out there.
It's like Fist of the North Star and the internet famous version of Cho Aniki had a kid on the PS1. This game is seriously ugly-as-sin, this would not have been accepted a PS2 launch title, what the hell it's doing in 2006 is beyond me. It's not even a stylistic decision, it's just plain terrible.
But it counters that with homosexuality. Tons of it. The first stage starts off with the main character, Jin, telling the woman he's with how the burly guys in front of them are sexier then she is. Twice. The boss of the third stage are two men dressed in nothing but thongs and brightly colored feathers and their primary attacks consist of thrusting their crotches into each other and trying to punch Jin in the balls.
But the combat is really good. You get a huge list of attacks which grows as you purchase and unlock moves, and you pick from those to customize your combos and what each button does. There is no block, only dodge, and knocking enemies into certain positions (on the ground, doubled-over, etc.) triggers button-mashing special moves where Jin goes absolutely nuts on his target.
I'm still not sure if this is god-awful or genius. Probably a little bit of both.
At your six.

Famitsu shit ont his. Like, 6's if I remember correctly.
Fake Edit: Yeah, I guess a 6 isn't really "shitting" on it, but it's disappointingly lower than I expected.

It's not that bad. I've got a copy of Evergrace right here you can compare it to if you want.Originally Posted by Chris
Worried about US edits, I checked out a copy just to see what it's like. Day one purchase, no question. I only played a bit of the first level so didn't get the Hard Gay vibe you found, but the fighting action is really good.

That boss fight was particularly awesome because every two seconds Elvis kept saying, "No hablo ingles." Mind you, he'd been speaking English just fine before the fight started.
I'm really starting to lean more towards "genius."

Personally, it looks like the perfect RENTAL. I can't see myself enjoying that for more than an hour or two at the most. Wicked DDT though...

Either the guy playing is really good or it's the easiest game ever made. Do the enemies ever actually attack you?

Hopefully, this game has more moves than juggle the enemy in the air, punch,punch,punch...., juggle enemy, punch,punch,punch....,
But, I guess that was the beginning of the game so maybe a big enough move list hadnt opened up yet..

Thanks for the hands-on and command list, NCSX-

I put a couple of hours into this game. First impression, it's fucking awesome. I just wish the in-game text was in english. The graphics aren't that bad. I was expecting them to be horrendous though, so maybe that helps.
