Ever have a game that just feels impossible to jive with? Like, I dig the weird Donkey Kong Country Rareware art style, but the gameplay is not for me. I’ve watched videos, looked up guides, learned combos… it’s just one of those times.

It doesn’t help that they punch you in the dick with spammy arcade AI and six-button arcade controls (the Xbox controller does not have six face buttons). Idk it just doesn’t feel great to me. Maybe I’ll like the other two.

But Spinal is the only fighting game character who has ever existed. I love you bro <3

I mean to be fair the original Xbox controller DID have six face buttons. But I 100% agree I was taken completely aback by how stiff and bad this game feels to play now.
