Rating Description
out of 10
7.5 Presentation
You’re going through a lot of text-heavy menus with little flair. I wish some CGI cutscenes didn’t go to in-game cutscenes to come back to CGI cutscenes.
8.0 Graphics
The in-game environments can look so-so and NPCs could use a bit more detail, but the fights look great and the cutscenes are phenomenal.
7.5 Sound
I have no idea what people are saying, but it sounds really good and I like the music. The one English voice in the game is terrible, however.
8.5 Gameplay
You’re brutally beating people in the streets of Japan. It’s awesome, but it can feel stale at times. Toss in a bunch of other mini-games and side quests, and you’re set.
9.0 Lasting Appeal
It took me 20 hours to beat the story and the stat screen said I had only done 11 percent of everything I could do. Adventure mode, premium playthrough, karaoke bars – all of this is there to explore.
8.5
Great		 OVERALL
(out of 10 / not an average)

Btw i don't know whats wrong with Sega, they want this game to sell yet they release it at the most crowded month in history and plus they make a crappy looking boxart for it, also plus they remove some of the stuff that is on the japanese version.

btw did they mention English voices? do they mean the english guys in coats?

This is a very good score. It actually deserves a 9 and I am sure Greg meant to give it but I can understand how being 2 years old automatically bumps the score down.

Its got Japanese VO only which is awesome.



 

It is better to die on one's feet
