Title: My review of Afro Samurai (X360)
Post by: demi on February 05, 2009, 12:41:21 AM

PRO

Samuel L Jackson saying Mothafucka a lot

CON

Shitty Camera
No viewable life meter, even though you can "level up" and extend it... doesn't help me any
Body Part Poker - distinguished mentally-challenged, what purpose does this serve? Is there a reward besides achievement?
re: BPP - It's timed (way too short for what they want you to accomplish), and if you fuck up, you have to exit back to the main menu and reload from that checkpoint
Slicing with a samurai sword yet it can take upwards to a minute just to kill one person - punching bags
Floaty controls
Yet another movelist which boils down to 99% button mashing anyway
NON SKIPPABLE SCENES

Overall: 6

You don't use the 1-5 scale much, eh?

Um...

Examples of games in 1-5 scale:

Mass Effect
Psychonauts
Valkyrie Profile
Eternal Sonata
COD World At War
Guitar Hero 3
Oblivion

Not surprised. Always looked like shit. Never understood why there was always a small group of people really excited for it.

Definitely. Mass Effect is a really, really bad game.
