Kakuto Chojin
Overall: I'm afan of fighting games, and Kakuto Chogin is far superior to the other games recently released. Much better than Mortal Kombat.Gameplay: When I first started playing, I thought that the fighting system was very inferior and shallow with few combos, etc. Further examination reveals an intricate and delicate fighting system that requiers precision in moves and combos. The linked fighting styles with combos is very tricky to get the hang of, but once you do the gameplay is as fluid as DOA3 (not choppy like MK)
Graphics: There's just not enough to say about the graphics. The characters do seem too small on the screen and definately a rip-off from fight-club, but still very beautiful models, skins & lighting
Audio: Er, so the game sort of falls flat on sound. There isn't a good background soundtrack, and realistic fighting sounds just suck. More 'unnatural' fighting sounds would be good.
Suggestions: Better sound as mentioned above, more in-depth characters and unlocking. A better 'command list' option (training in DOA3 was a good start, improve on something like that)
Overall Score: 8.0 / 10
BMX XXX
Overall: Overall, this game hasn't lived up to expectations and hype. Many things that were promised by the developers have failed to show themselves and the game suffers because of this. A much better buy would be THPS4 or Agressive Inline, both feature better graphics, and Agressive Inline has better T&A.Gameplay: Compared to the outstanding game Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4, this one is slow and difficult to control. The objectives don't focus so much on completing tricks and improving your game as much as riding from point A to point B as quickly as possible. All said, a difficult and slow gameplay that really takes away from the excitement expected in Extreme Sports games.
Graphics: Here's where the game was supposed to shine. Great visual effects, half to fully naked women, the ability to create your own personal 'hot chick' to ride around the levels. None of this appeared. Instead we're treated to PlayStation 1 graphics, a character creation that allows for little variation in body type (skinny - fat, male or female), and a series of overall animations that make me sick. The falling animation in particular is horrible, think barbie-doll body stiffness.
Audio: The only saving grace of this game. The sound follows traditional Extreme Sport games and gives you a great soundtrack to listen to. The in-game sounds aren't too bad either, blending seamlessly into the rest of the game.
Suggestions: Better graphics, a faster response in game, improved trick & scoring system, a better character creation system, better T&A, live up to fan expectations. In short, a better game.
Overall Score: 4.0 / 10
