At first, I was on the fence about buying this game because it got mixed bag reviews, but then I decided to pick it up and I'm glad I did because it's gory, it's funny, and it's highly entertaining.
WHAT THE GAME IS: Technically, it's a fighting game based on an old MTV show of clay celebrities who fight each other. This game features fifteen celebrities, six episodes with three matches each, unlockable characters, and you can customize your own celebrity.
GRAPHICS: Old and not great, I would like it to look a little better with its textures and animation.
MUSIC: Rock music like you'd expect from this kind of things.
SOUND: Punching, kicking, slashing, use of chainsaws, guns, dogs barking, the announcers spouting dirty sexual innuendos (Like one incident in which one of them fantasized about Carmen Electra and Cindy Margolis "doing it"), taunting from the celebrities, and more.
GAMEPLAY: Most people can breeze through this game with ease and unlock everything. Some may not like the selection of fighting moves, but others will (Like when I was Frankenstein and I was facing the Wolfman and he peed on me as one of his attacks, or dismembering your opponent in a number of ways). It's really quite satisfying to pull off these moves, and it's not hard to figure out how to finish someone, and when you do it's a glorious sight that will make you laugh your a-- off for how funny they are.
OVERALL: Well, it depends, do you really like fighting games? Are you a fan of the old show? Or are you just looking for some gory fun? I can't say if you'll like it or not because of how short the game is, and you might not like to fighting moves. But, you might find quite a lot of fun in this underrated game if you give it a chance.
THE GOOD: Cool dismembering moves, funny attacks and dialogue, great selection of celebrities, easy to use, and it's got an endless replay value.
THE BAD: Game is a bit too short, you can complete it in one sitting.
More fun to actually watch the show on MTV

I actually entered 2 stars for this item, but for some reason, they doubled it . . .
First off, I'm glad this game is under $20, because it definitely ain't a $40+ selection. The running commentary by Diamond and Gomez are the true highlights of this game, and the great voice work by series regulars including Mills Lane and Debbie Matenopolis (sp?) make this a "must-listen-to" game. The default fighters are varied enough, but the un-lockable bonus fighters are a bit of a let-down as none of them are celebrities, and most share the same sound files.
The actual fighting moves vary from great to clumsy as hell, but for the most part they're entertaining. You can unlock bonuses by playing the different fighters through set "Episodes" of Death Match. I completed all six the first time through.
In the end it's fun, but there's very little replay value without a second person.
Pros: Well-animated, "claymation" violence; side-splitting commentary and taunts; Ron Jeremy providing his own voice; the ring designs.
Cons: Way too easy to complete; little replay value outside of player v.s. player; clumsy execution of certain fighting moves, including finales; the absence of Stone Cold Steve Austin and Stacey Kornbread (outside her undead cameo); the lack of "A"-list celebrities; the lack of celebrity bonus characters.
Fun game

I finally broke down and bought this game because it was only 2.99 and I'm glad I didn't pay a penny more for it. It's mildy entertaining, at best, because there are very few fighting moves and other options. Also the action is very slow as opposed to other great fighting games like Mortal Kombat or Street Fighter. As in most games, I find the announcers annoying and time consuming, however the one good thing about it is the celebrity personalities. The idea of the game has great potential, but the makers have fallen short of my standards.
DON'T WASTE UR MONEY UNLESS UR A DIE HARD FAN OF THE SHOW

K THERES ONLY 2 FIGHTING STYLES FOR EACH GENDER WHEN U WANT TO CREATE SOMEONE. PLUS THEY DON'T HAVE ALL THE CELEBERTIES THEY HAD ON TV, ONLY HAVE 6 ATTACKS (NOT INCLUDING WEAPONS), AND THE WEPONS DON'T APEAR AS MUCH AS THEY SHOULD. THIS GAME WAS WAY TOO EASY ALSO PLUS IT ONLY TOOK ME 20 MINS TO UNLOCK EVEY THING.
ONLY 6 ARENAS, LIKE 17 DUDES HALF OF THEM ARE CELEBERTIES. SHOULD HAVE TONS OF FIGHTING STYLES LIKE MARTIAL ARTS, STREET FIGHTNG, WRESTLING, AND PRO WRESTLING. GOOD THING I DIDN'T BUY THIS, MY GRAND MA DID =)
Don't waste your Money on this game!!!

I don't reccommend this game to anyone. There is nothing fun about it or intresting. You can hit one button over and over and win. Not to mention that during Marlyin Mansons fight match he comes up through a devil worshipping symbol- that alone made my choice for me that I wasted my money. Their is much better games out there to play than this one!
