The game Hybrid Heaven delivers a whole adventure with fights that will make rpg fans want more until they reach their limit then break it. With high action fights and a plot so intense it will beat some bestseller books! This game will take you underground Manhattan during Desember 1999 where a race of clones and mutated beasts that call themselves the hybrids that are trying to stop a peace treaty between the U.S. and Russia by replacing the U.S. president with aclone and put other clone in high authority and take over the world. So how do you know who is a hybrid and who is not...you don't! This game plunges you into nine large areas of fights, puzzles, and a twisting plot that willdeliver an explosion that boggles the mind. With this game you will have:

Eye-popping hi-res graphics and cinematic demo scenes bring the world of Hybrid Heaven to life.

Learn different fighting styles and moves from your opponents, and develop and edit your own deadly combos.

Encounter over 50 different sinister creatures to battle.

Uncover the mysteries of the hybrid race as you journey through incredibly detailed sectors of New York City's underground.

Challenge your friends inside the arena with the intense 2-player vs. mode.

The multiplayer can pit two people against each other with characters you have faced in the single player game. The creature battle is another great feature that'll pit you against the computer in battle after battle after battle. The game requires a memory pak to save your game and is expansion pak enhanced for better graphics. This game has the teen (13+) rating for bloodless violence without screams of pain or bone crunching(parents just in case your wondering at the end of a fight the body just hits the ground and disapears in a matter of 3 seconds). This game must've got the teen rating just because of some the moves and all the opponents you can fight. With a combination of fighting or wrestling moves, weapons, brilliant graphics, a plot that will keep you guessing, and much more that I didn't mention Hybrid Heaven is a roller coaster ride that will test your abilities and beyond!

Hybrid Heaven - an RPG that made a unique and daring blend.

This game is a rather unique type of RPG. Much of the story plot is sparse, but easy to follow. The labyrinth that the main character has to go through is a hugh, multi-leveled UFO. The battle engine (which seems to be what the game is mostly about) goes about combat in a very leisurely, and lengthy manner. Part of the time, you are constantly dancing with the opponent while waiting for your strength meter to recharge. Then, when either you or your opponent engage an attack, a menu pops up, permitting you to choose your move. There is also a unique offense/defense level on different body parts. Say you take too many blows to your left leg. Suddenly, that leg will be too weak to do kicks with. It will also be an easy spot for the enemy to deliver painful blows to. In fact, you and your opponent generally have six different areas that can take damage. Legs, arms, torso and head. And, in the process of combat, you will gain new maneuvers and strengthen different areas of yourself, depending on the usage of the maneuver. Say you constantly use right uppercuts. That arm will gain strength. Though, by gaining all these maneuvers, you tend to make the menu of moves run on forever. You can also use weapons you find along the way to combat with. Sadly, once you get past the combat engine, labyrinth and story plot ideas, the game starts feeling like a wide open field with all the players missing. Much of the time, you will be running through large hallways, shooting at the occasional defense bots, trying to locate the key writing machines and opening doors and chests of several sorts. And, the rooms where your hand-to-hand battles take place in, are usually against biologically engineered monsters who seem to use remotely operated transporters to enter with. There doesn't seem to be much offered in the way of brain teasers. Basically, you are either running through nearly empty hallways, fighting an enemy via hand-to-hand or watching a movie sequence. This game is not for everyone. Try renting it first. And, if you like it, buy it. I'd also recommend obtaining a dedicated memory card for this game...as it likes eating up 56 pages to save a game.

The fight scenes, move selections, and plot are great!

The selection of moves is almost endless, the plot is wonderfully played out, with many twists, and the graphics are wonderful!

Hybrid Heaven is a game fully worth checkng out especially if you are into RPG's or action games. Hybrid Heaven mixes a mysterious twisting plotline with a totally revolutionary fight sequence with combos, weapons, wrestling type throws, and hand to hand fighting. The graphics of this game are nothing too spectacular, but certain enemies and parts do look really fantastic! Now, although I like this game I admit that it sometimes has awkward camera angles which can make things a little difficult, but this game is also great because it is an RPG (role playing game)in which you can talk with other people, search through levels collecting items, and bring tactics into battle.

A complete bust

This game is a pittiful excuse for a game, the moves are boring, the "rpg" aspect is childish, and the graphics are horrid. The game "claims" to take full use of the powers of the expansion pack, but when I put the expansion pack in, it just increased the frame rate a slight notch. And that was needed, the frame rate for this game was horrid, the camera angels constantly were wrong, and the "wide variety of monsters" were a joke. There was almost no variety, they ALL attacked in the EXACT same manner, and avoiding there attacks is just WAY too easy as you just have to stay out of there reach untill your "power meter" is full. As for the "high res" graphics, they were pitiful, colorless, and for the most part unnoticable. The opening cut scenes were very annoying in thier length, and the translation of the text to English was done by a 3rd grader if that. If you want to waste your $50 that badly, just flush it down the toilet, atleast it wont take up your time as well!

Interesting and original

The combat system is what sets this game up. I won't get into the story a lot, because you need to experience it to understand it. The combat is a combination of RPG style and action style. You control your movement directly, and then choose various attack or defense options from some in-game menues. It's hard to get a hang of, but a lot of fun once you do, with each area of the body leveling up separately. I'd reccommend renting before buying, however, because the combat and story may not be for you.

The worst game i have played!

mmm, What a mistake making this game. It has no depth, is no fun, becomes tedious quickly and lacks qualities of classics like Mario Kart 64 and Goldeneye. What a bad game for such an amazing consele. Even Clayfighters 64 is better than this!

Pretty cool ^_^

I, myself, happened to enjoy Hyrbid Heaven. The story line is great, plenty of twists and turns, and is pretty captivating. While the game moves a little slow, and the battles do get annoying, I was hooked waiting to find out what happened next. I'd recommend this one. The movies in the game were excellent, with lots of detail. And the game was challenging, nothing really pushover that you could beat within a few hours.

All in all, an enticing, exciting title you won't be able to shut off ^_^

simply boring

This game did not live up to my expectations. The graphics are solid and the story's all right, but the pace is SLOW. The biggest problem with this game is the battles. It tries to put together the best aspect of fighting games and RPG battle systems, and it simply doesn't work. Trust me, this should not be called an RPG. Of course there are some people who'll love this game, but you probably aren't one of them, and so should rent instead of buying.

Perfect for RPG fans!

This game has awesome graphics. The story is very confusing because when you think you've figured out the story, they throw something else at you! All and all RPG fans will love it. Remember your Controller Pak.
