Review: Barbarian

[bahn]

Titus steps into the foray of fighting games and comes out with a exceptionally solid hit.

"Chances are if you're among the casual player base looking for a relatively easy fighting game to jump into, the more sophisticated games won't do much to secure your interest. With technical terms ranging from kara-cancelling to negative edge, filled with a bevy of complex moves and techniques to memorize - are you truly looking forward to spending an infinite degree of time just to get a few hours of enjoyment? Probably not. Aside from the Capcom's highly popular Versus series, Soul Calibur or Powerstone, most players seek a game that's moderate in depth and complexity and can deliver immediate gratification. Saffire and Titus Games apparently have diagnosed this growing interest, unveiled in the form of Barbarian, the latest addition to be introduced to the fighting genre."

sadly, yes - because they're too lazy to sit down and learn anything else. That's why so many games have been dumbed down for the mainsteam audience.
