A Better Looking Hero - The biggest compliment that I can give to this port is how nice it looks, considering its age. The game uses 2D sprites for the fighters and colorful scenes for the background environments, which are important for fighting games on the whole. The graphical style most similarly resembles that of Street Fighter II, which you will definitely be reminded of when playing. The colorful visuals slightly alleviate an otherwise monotonous experience.

Fun With Other Heroes - The multiplayer component is what you might expect from a fighting game; you fight someone else online using any of the characters available. I found myself having a good amount of fun with it because of the lack of difficulty I experienced playing the campaign.

Simply Fighting - There isn’t much to talk about with this title, especially when it comes to the gameplay. There are a very limited number of attacks (kicking, punching, throwing) and button combinations that can be used when fighting. This hampers the overall enjoyment level and experience. Furthermore, there isn’t much to the single player experience. It simply involves fighting other characters from different countries. The overall premise is far too similar to Street Fighter II.

No Replay Value - Even if you manage to make your way through the single player mode, there is hardly any incentive to play the game again. The surprising lack of difficulty exists on each setting, and simple pride is the main motivation to continue playing. However, pride only goes so far and without more of a challenge, the satisfaction you may feel in succeeding disappears.

Annoying Audio - Perhaps, the largest flaw of are the sound effects. They grate on your nerves, especially some of the sounds that are made by the characters. The problem could be somewhat alleviated if they didn’t continuously occur throughout. However, when characters make the same sound with every move, the annoyance level only increases.
