Ninety-Nine Nights

Not Up To Par

User Rating: 6.1 | Ninety-Nine Nights X360

This game falls in line with the Dynasty and Samurai Warrior button mashing hack and slash genre ... but does not do as nearly as good a job in gameplay as those series ... save issues (don't die when fighting a boss or you'll be repeating the whole level ) ... bosses that you can't hit except when they want you to ... a whole new level of frustration there.

The hacking and slashing is fun and the graphics are top notch but the game play just is not on par with others in the genre ... for those of you that are into the achievement system they are sparse here ... you only unlock them after finishing the whole game with a character which consists of 5 long (and unsavable unless they are completed) levels.

There are not all that may characters to play with as compared to the dynasty or samurai warriors games. For my money I'd rather have spent it on something else.
