Lame camera controls add to the frustration of a weak story and poor gameply.

This game had tremendous potential, but the lame camera controls make it difficult to play a game that already has a weak story. The combat controls are similar to other fighting games, but even that gets boring with enemies that are too easy to defeat. It reminds me a little of the Devil May Cry franchise, alot of button mashing and jumping to defeat enemies. There is only one problem with that, it's been done before and several times; where is the innovation?

The graphis aren't bad for a modern game, but they aren't good enough to make up for the other flaws. This game is a total disappointment. Save your money for games with modern controls, a real story, and are worth the $60!
