I love this innovative game. The combat system is so fun. Picking up objects and throwing them at your oponents will give you significant advantage over them. The transformation after you collect all three power stones is so cool! I like the fact that everyone gets a chance to evolve and to become the strongest fighter.

Great Action game

Power Stone is one of the great gems on the Dreamcast. This game was a breakthrough among fighting/action games. It is a 3D versus fighter, with tons of special moves, destructable environments, weapons and other items you can pick up and use, environmental traps and gadgets that can help or hinder you, and environmental objects you can use to jump off of, climb on, tear down, etc. It is a combination "capture the flag"/fighter where everyone goes dashing around for powerups and attacks each other to get them to drop their power stones. Once someone collects all the power stones, they go into their super mode and it becomes a game of cat and mouse until the effects wear off and the power stones fly off in random directions. This game is totally fun, totally original, and totally worth buying a Dreamcast if only to play this one game.

Power Stone Rocks!

Power Stone is a fun filled action game that every one will like.
It has fast action! Fast pace baby! The way I like it.
The desighn is great. The level desighn in Power stone is awesome.

Gameplay is great! Thats what it's all about. Gameplay. It's also easy to use and learn. The game will last for awhile but You will eventually get bored with it. But not for awhile.

This game is great...I give it 5/5....It's really good trust me.

I haven't played Power Stone 2 though. But get this game.....

Later...

ONE TRICK PONY PLAYERS WOULD LOVE THIS GAME

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!

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.

It's been a while since the dreamcast went out of the market, but even though it's still a good system, and the games, games like power stone 1, and 2. Power Stone is still wicked and i think it's better then pinche (wimpy) smash brothers melle for Game Cube, this game still surpasses some fighters out today
other fighters aren't as interactive as this one, i just hope they might make a power stone 3 hopefully!!

Story:

The setting is the 19th century. There is a treasure called the Power Stone, which can grant its owner one wish. 10 people are fighting to possess this treasure. They are:Falcon, Ayame, WangTang, Jack, Rouge, Gunrock, Galuda, Ryoma, Kraken, & Valgas.

My Review:

What an awesome game!!! Each character has its own pros & cons, from the huge Gunrock to the creepy Jack. Example: Gunrock has monster strength, but is not much on speed. Your goal in the game is to collect the level's 3 power stones, which transforms your player into a superbeing, an example is WangTang morphing into a dead-ringer for a Super Saiyan from DBZ. You can lose your power stones if your are knocked out. Also, keep in mind that Kraken & Valgas are boss characters, & are only available once you beat the game with all the normal characters. To help you out, weapons lie scattered throughout the level from a Molotov Cocktail to my personal favourite, THE MINIGUN. Parents Note: One of the female characters is quite scantily clad, and her superbeing's clothing is almost transparent. My only complaint is that the voices are not translated into english, they are still in japanese. But all text is english. Also the game gets easy after awhile on single player. This game is best for you & a friend.

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.
