Excellent Fighting Game without all the blood and guts!

Not much gore, and lots of fun. A good choice for kids because it doesn't show tons of blood, but the fighting is complex enough the adults will enjoy it as well. We have gotten our money's worth out of this game.

Soul Fighter is a good action game

In the beginning,this game starts off kind of lame then as you begin to progress through the game. It gets pretty cool. The big problem is that the camera angles are sometimes very tedious,Other than that it is a pretty good game. The controls are simple. Overall, from a scale 1-10, I'd have to give it a 8.

- Confusing camera: in a third person game, the camera is suppose to be directly and above the character. In this game, it's everywhere BUT third person

- Simple fighting combos: punch, punch, kick, taken straight from Dynamite Cop. You can use a sword or axe but only for limited time before it disintegrates. Must have bought them at a garage sale or something.

- Lame graphics: I've never seen a world so shiny and bright. I take it the game designers never heard of atmosphere or mood lighting. Also the characters were taken out of some cheesy 50's horror flick, and move just as badly!

- Sound: Imagine cheesy disco music combined with cheesy pop music. I'd rather listen to that combination from hell then the soundtrack to this game. And the worst part is, you can't shut off the music! What's the point in having an options screen if you can't turn off the music. Plus, if you stay still for 3 seconds, Sean Connery (well someone one sounds somewhat like Sean, maybe his brother Earl) starts yelling "Go!" repeatly and incessantly.

All together you have a game with bad music, bad controls, bad graphics, bad special effects, uh, do you think I used the word "bad" enough?

I thought Dynamite Cop was awful after I finished the entire game in 20 minutes, but I'd rather take 20 minutes of beating up pirates then Earl Connery shouting at me.

Give me Final Fight Back!

I received this game for a gift, and didn't have the foresight to read someone's review about it before I actually opened the plastic! If this is your situation (but you haven't opened it) then STOP and return it! I would've rather played Final Fight for the Super Nintendo! At least in that game you can see what is going on clearly. This has to be one of the worst games I have ever played. There is really no strategy, there is TONS of backtracking to parts of levels you thought you'd beat, but then more enemies just appear, and the game just isn't any fun. Also, it was pretty dumb to not make the game for any more than one player at a time, with multiplayer this horrible game might at least be bearable for five minutes. I'm almost ashamed to own this game!

not worth your time

As a fan of both fantasy and video games, I was really looking forward to this title. I had also heard that it was similar to Golden Axe, which was another plus. Within 10 minutes of playing this game I came to regret my purchase.

The game suffers at every level: graphics, sound, and playability. I would say the graphics fall somewhere between the level of Nintendo 64 and the Dreamcast, which while decent are surely not what they should be on the latter. The sound is minimal; I think I remember a few sword clinks and some grunts. What is even worse than the game graphics are the ridiculous cutscenes (not to mention the game's intro, which is nothing short of pathetic), which, graphically, look like they belong on a Playstation. But all this aside, even if I was satisfied with the graphics and sound, the gameplay is the one thing I would not be able to overlook.

Gameplay is not much more than pushing a couple of buttons repeatedly, and so you run around, punch/kick, punch/kick, punch/kick, etc. Once in a while you get to pick up an axe or sword, and then as if by magic you use it a couple of times and it disappears. Also, often you will find yourself backtracking through areas you have already cleared just to find some stupid key/object (this happened to me more than a couple of times). And as is to be expected with this sort of game, here come the same few enemies, over and over and over again.

Conclusion: I would not buy this game ever again, even if it was at half-price.

SOULESS..save your $$$$

i'm sorry but this game is so lame, it makes fighting force 2 look like METAL GEAR. this is what happens when programmers rush a game in time for the holidays. let's see...poor character design, dark & dull graphics, a corny repetitive soundtrack and not to mention the lame ass sean connery impersonation..("GO!")

I HAD WAY MORE FUN PLAYING GAURDIAN HEROES for the defunct SEGA SATURN than this 128 bit mess. if sega releases more crap like SOUL FIGHTER, the DC may die a horrible death, just in time for sony's playstation 2. but luckly that is not the case, cause RE; CODE VERONICA, LEGACY OF KAIN, CARRIER & ZOMBIE REVENGE is on it's way. THANK GOD!

avoid this game at any cost, at least it makes a great coaster or even a mini frisbee..

The makers of SoulFighter need professional therapy

The makers of Soul Fighter really crossed the line as far as i'm concerned. This is by far one of the worst games i've ever played in my life. Graphics and music don't mean everything (And neither one of those were thoroughly impressive). First and formost, if i wanted to get a dizzy spell, i could just as easily run outside and spun in circles and saved myself about 50 dollars. Then you have to listen to the same old music over and over and over (get the point?). And lets not even get into the fun factor of this game. This is one of the first games i've ever played where i took it back only hours afterward. Some might say that i should have given it more time. Trust me. It didn't deserve the small amount of time i gave it. Terrible, terrible, terrible.

This is not to great a game, at list that's what I think. The 3d fx aren't to bad but its not the best iv seen. This game has a lame background story that has bean used in several games in the past years. But a perfectly good game in any other way . ; )So if you're looking for entertainment this is probably your game.
