Just downloaded and played the demo, and all i can say is....that it's the kind of rubbish game Inafune was talking about when he took a shot at japanese developers. The formula hasn't evolved from the typical Dynasty Warrior kind of game. The enemies are generic grunts, and you mash the first 2 attacks till everyone dies. The boss fights are boring as hell. Mash the same 2 attacks for 20 times longer and you're all set.

There's this part where you control Rei and get on the motorcycle, and the handling feels like crap. I mean c'mon, i'm sure controls for a motorcycle ride have been done and improved and maybe perfected to death, but this game just can't seem to learn from what has already been done. Gives the same feeling as Final Fantasy 14. They just couldn't learn from pass achievements, by other albeit.

I'm quite a bit of a Hokuto No Ken fan, and was anticipating this game. But now i know that it's just garbage.

I am a fan, or was a fan of it. I played DW 3, 4, 5 & 6 and even the xtreme legends & empires spinoffs. But how long are we supposed to endure it? The graphics look like something which could almost be on the ps2, and the fighting mechanics have been dumbed down even further. I would expect a game of a different franchise to at least of a different build.

I had never heard of this Fist of the North Star thing before, so I was surprised by the hilariously awesome style. But yeah, the actual game seems kind of bleh. As that one ridiculously ripped and unproportional Japanese glam metal dude who runs like Wolverine for no reason you're just waiting for the Y button prompt to enter the special mode and then doing the area of effect sweep and kick thing over and over. And the bike is just absolutely pointless and crap. Could've just made it so he ran really fast instead.

Saying that it's Anime, not a cartoon is like saying, "I'm not Asian, I'm Chineese." It still is a cartoon, dude.

Anime is actually the Japanese word for cartoon. Any animated programs there would be refered to as anime.

Though in the West, we seperate anime exclusivly for Japanese animations. Kind of odd.
