You know those games I'm talking about. The kind that you still love and don't want to get rid of, yet for some reason, makes you disappointed or hate it when you play them.
Mine currently is SoulCalibur Broken Destiny. I was so excited when I heard this game would come to the PSP. Knowing how much I love Tekken DR, I expected Namco-Bandai to hit another grand slam with this one.
But it didn't meet my expectation like I wanted it to. I mean, I still love the game and it is an amazing scaled down version of SoulCalibur IV. But it's missing a lot of single player features. For example, there's no Arcade mode (which is strange) and there are no story modes. Sure, these things don't matter too much because afterall, games like these are meant for competitive play. But does it hurt to add something for PSP owners, especially since it doesn't have online play? I would've gladly waited a couple more months if these features were included in. The story mode didn't even have to have any CGs or a elaborate narrative. Just beautifully drawn illustrations would've been just fine with me. Just something that gives this game more value.
I still can't help but to wonder why Namco-Bandai took these out, especially with Kratos in it, I wanted at least a narrative or little story on how Kratos came across fighting SC characters. Right now, I hate to say it but Kratos is just a gimmick. A very good gimmick and a awesome one at that...but, I wanted his SC debut to have a little more meat than just being bones.
Anyway, that's mine. Anyone else care to share?
