Great challenging spectacle fighter with a slight taste of rhythm game. All action, all the time.

Hard initially, particularly as parrying is not explained (push stick toward the enemy, not the attack, and press the X button at the same time). Once over this, I really enjoyed the rest of the game. Has a good amount of content for intermediate and expert players too: this game seems to be designed so an averagely-skilled player get to the end of new game + at least once. Decent story, a bit corny, sometimes funny.

Over the top gameplay and story elements work well together.

Port is fine, but you will be better off with an XBox controller.

Graphics OK, sound good, music great. The music's not what I would listen to in my free time, but works well with the feel of the game.

The last two fights are particularly good, though I found almost all the boss battles highly enjoyable.
