Rating Description

4.5 Presentation
The story is poorly told if you're not a Fist of the North Star expert and there are plenty of loads.
5.5 Graphics
The tear-away clothing and cutscenes are cool, but the muddy textures and barren environments don't inspire. Animations could use some polish, too.
6.0 Sound
The voice acting is fine, but the generic guitar riffs that act as the soundtrack are forgettable.
5.0 Gameplay
You're punching everything to death. It doesn't wow (with the exception of boss finishers) but it doesn't suck. It just is.
5.5 Lasting Appeal
The real draw is unlocking all of the skills and moves. The stories themselves aren't engaging and the gameplay is pretty straightforward.
5.0
