Powerful Game

Power Stone... It is just plain fun. It is like playing a wacky version of WWF Wrestlemania 2000. Tables, chairs, flame-throwers and explosives round out the weapons selection. The graphics are nice and the control is excellent. However, the gameplay can be frustrating. If players concentrate on dodging attacks and grabbing power stones, the character can turn into a "super" version of themselves. This tactic can greatly offset the balance of the game and frustrate the other players. Get 3 stones twice, and you are almost guaranteed a win. All in all, the fun factor alone is worth the buy. Excellent party game!

Street Fighter on crack

Capcom continues to make great fighting games, but this time out with Power Stone they create something special. Power Stone was one of the first Dreamcast games out for the Dreamcast and helped make the system worth buying. You can go anywhere, grab anything, and then beat the hell out of your opponent. Its a great game, the only problem is that there is so much going on during the game you can lose your concentration at times, but thats the only flaw. Otherwise, its a great game.

The craziest 3D fighter game yet!

Capcom goes all out on animation, action, and humor with this 3D fighter game. It is a whole lot better when you play with two people despite the fact their are unlockables in the game. There are also mad moves you can do off poles, walls, on other miscelaneous objects found in the game. I would recommend this game to anyone who likes to play Capcom or Squaresoft games.

If you want a game that you can master in 5 mins with any character then POWER STONE IS IT. I beat the game as I got it once I discovered "the formula"...

I'll list the pros and cons to give you a fair rundown

Pros
1) Characters are unique and fun with personality, i.e. personal story, ending etc (missing from PS2)
2) Backrounds are the BOSS and fully interactive
3) The moves and effects are radical (King Capcom shines here)
4) Fast action
5) Cool Japanese voices

Cons
1) One dimensional fighting sucks as a 3D fighting game!!
2) Weapons make no sense once you know the formula! They just slow you down and make you a prime target for the formula!!

Overall
Overall this is a DISAPPOINTING attempt at a fighting game. The concept is good but the fighting engine is flawed. Powerstone 2 got it right and is a blast, read my review!

Worst Fighting Game Ever

If you want to have any amout of fun, go pickup Soul Calibur, and leave Power Stone on the shelf. Soul Calibur is to a Ferrari as Power Stone is to a Pinto.

The point is?

If I had to be simple and brief in my review of this video game, I would say - BORING.

One of Capcom's Hottest Arcade ports ever!

This game is great. It's easy to learn, fast and looks buetiful. The more you play it the higher you skill level grow, which means this game has tons of depth. This game has a ton of replay value for those who have a few friends to play it with. The VMS game is good enough to keep you ocuppied until you earn the last extras of the game. The only flaw is that the game tends to lack a few moves, although there is never a lack of things to do. A must have for any Capcom fan.

COOL FIGHTER!

I was lucky enough to try the original Japanese version of this game. Although I'm not much of a fighting game enthusiast, when I got my system, I also decided (on the spot) to get this game. I must say that this is one game that is incredible!

Power to the STONE!
