I have never played this game. I loved the Ripping Freinds show on foxkids,So when they canceled it I almost died.But t.v. studios do that all the time like with the Tick,and spiderman.Look at the graphics yourself and decide, click on the picture of the box.From the view of the screenshots it looks like it's a beat e'm up game.That's good 'cause I loved double dragon 2 for the Nes.And since it's THQ it will probably have some wrestling style elements.And since it's the ripping freinds It probably is funny.

The Ripping Friends for Gameboy Advance

"The Ripping Friends" for Gameboy Advance is based on the
Cartoon Network series of the same about 4 grown men
who in diaper suits and capes combat good and evil.
The cartoon was created by Spumco the same great minds
who brought us "Ren and Stimpy" for Nickelodeon and
likewise the game is done by Spumco. I have to say
I was impressed by the game in a couple areas like the graphics, other areas though like the gameplay
basically sucked it got repetitive very quick and it

really hurt the game and thus the game itself
will only be liked by fans of the show.

Story:

Crab, Slab, Rip and Chunk battle their arch nemesis
Citracet whose a mad evil doer bent on taking over the world. The series is hilarious filled with dark humor.
The game itself sometimes uses these gags well too.
For example, a monster in the game might be dressed
as a mailman, and the monster as the mailman will
be delivering bombs. It's politically incorrect
humor, but it's funny most of the time.

Graphics 10:

I gave the graphics a 10 for many reasons for one thing
the characters look exactly like they do in the cartoon.
This seems obvious but can't tell you how many game
companies fail to get the likewise of their characters
in games (Acclaim in Legends of Wrestling II ).

Sound and Music 4:

Sound and Music is a bit of a downer. You get a theme
for intro, theme for the levels in between, but in
game sounds consists of groans and thumps like when
you hit a monster. One cool thing is when you get
certain powerups you get one digitized voice recording
from the character you choose, such as it's
"Ripping Time"!!!.

Gameplay 3:

Here is the real bad apple here. If you played
Double Dragon or Final Fight youll be familiar
with fighting platforms games. You play through
a level beaten up like 20 opponents to meet the boss,
and same thing applies here. While the graphics
are great and sound is allright, gameplay
gets repetitive. Occasionally you get a powerup
and are able to execute powermoves like
superpunches, Youll even pick up a special
capping gun like a machine gun, but still
gameplay is awfully repetitive. Very. If you ain't
a fan of the show you might not play the game
the whole threw. Bosses in the game though are
very challenging.

There a special Multiplayer and Deathmatch mode in the
game but have not played them.

Overall "The Ripping Friends" is a game made for
only fans. You might like it I guess without being
a fan, it's a pretty good game, but gameplay gets
repetitive. More special moves could have really
helped here. A couple of the different characters have
their own moves so you might want to switch.
However in the end, the game does get a passing mark
it just could have been much better.

terrible game!!
