Video Game Reviews of Kakuto Chojin
Customer Review: Just an average fighter
Summary: 3 Stars
I am a fighter junky. I have played them all from street fighter to Tekken 5. I have been looking forever for this game when I heard they were going to take it off the market. I figured it will be a collector one day and well hey, its a fighter.
Let me start off with the good stuff. The Graphics are NICE. Smooth textures, animations, reflections, reactions really all top notch. The fighting is quick and not as jerky as some other people have said. I found it to be quite smooth.
Here comes the bad. The button layout is very weird. One three buttons, low medium and high. The rest are custom buttons that you can make as grab moves or your unblockable move. The small amount of buttons makes for very limited amounts of combos that you can pull off. All the ones you can are very easy. In most cases, you can hit one button five times and get a five hit combo. Yes, I have beat the game using ONE BUTTON. YUK! The story mode is not there. You pick a player, you fight 10 matches and then at the end, you get a lame wrap-up of what you character did after the tournamment. You do not get an explanation of the creepy looking final boss. She is just some crazy looking horned chick who is easy to beat. The game just seem incomplete.
I guess the game is all about the juggle combos. I have seen some sick ones pulled off on YOUTUBE but that is if you can remember how to pull of a launching move. I do it sometimes and I dont mean to. When you are fighting it kind of feels like Tekken 1 or Virtual fighter 2. There is just not much you can do in this game. If this game came out when Tekken 1 came out, it would get 5 stars. Now a days, it is just average. There are MANY other better fighting games out there but definateley a good one to get for the fighting game lover.
Description of Kakuto Chojin
Kakuto Chojin delivers a new level of realism where no two fights are the same, and there are no canned reactions: every punch, kick, and counter has a different effect. Heads snap back, sweat flies, muscles flex, legs buckle. Up to four fighters can engage in the action at the same time--go two-on-two or have an all out four-person brawl. Forget fighting pretty boys and supermodels. These are the folks you never want to meet in a dark alley. These fighters are tough--right out of some secret fight club. This is a grim, somber, deadly underworld, where fighters move among the shadows and battles take place on rain-soaked rooftops, dark alleys, and mysterious chambers.All Games
