Played first 2 levels.

Where Ninja Blade got bad reviews for the reason unknown to me...I totally understand why this got bad reveiws. they are similar games but one controlls really bad and is not fun at all...I will let you figure out which one im talking about.

The only bad thing is the forward roll. Don't tell me you had a hard time figuring out that the L-trigger is for lock-on, R-trigger for your gun, the 4 pad buttons for powers, etc.?

I mean, it's not complicated. It plays like a normal action game.

I have to say, though, that this game might be too normal. With that said, I understand the complaints about the "repetitiveness." o_O

Didnt say i didn't figure it out. But controls weres needlesly complicated and too fast...it was like sonic the hedgehog with a sword...wait, maybe I played the black knight... :P

 

Seriously, I like to have more slower paced controls where I can get my juggles going and control other things around me...and not just button mash most of the time.
