IGN review Catslevania Judgment ... It's.....

[Gamerace]

Just played this game last night with my son.

I'm no fan of fighters but to me this is as fun or good as any. However, my son (a much more hardcore player) had some reservations about it. The camera is wonky but no deal breaker, it works well enough.

Pros: Fun
Nice graphics
Easy to get off moves (no A,A,up, down,B crap)
Good for casual fighter fans
Good selection of characters with varying fighting styles
Has a story mode for each character


Cons: Camera needs some tuning
Hardcore fighter fans probably will find it lacking
It's a lot of waggling, my arm was beginning to get sore after 30 minutes
Not a lot of characters compared to other fighers
If the original concept was to allow you to feel like your flicking Belmont's whip and stuff, that's totally lost as it's all jusk quick rapid flicks - big gestures will cause you to lose and there's no correspondence between how your flicking to the move itself anyhow
Some levels have so many environmental hazards that they'll likely cause you more damage than your opponet
Some of the special moves with cutscenes are too long and not skipable

Havn't tried online yet.

All in all I agree with 7.5/10 It's a decent, fun fighter but not in Tekken or Street Fighter's league or really innovative in anyway. But if the online is better than DBZ:TB3 - which had totally broken online, then it's best in class on Wii and worth getting.
