Games I Dislike That Everybody Else Likes
I gotta be honest, the premise of a fighting game composed solely of classic kaiju-esque beasts in destructible environments is a home run - but man, this thing is the definition of clunky. It feels more like you're fighting against the camera than your opponent, and the slow movement of these monsters is way too literalized here because the fights are a total drag. I get that this is an early PS2 game but this was already THREE years into the system's life, and there are countless games that came out before this which play infinitely better - ones that don't need the crucial precision of a fighter, no less (actually, some of those games include fighters). And on that note, I'm sorry but this thing is just kind of ugly.
