Bloody roar 4

     

REVIEW:The fifth installment of the series, BloodyRoar 4 brings back 14 veterans from the now 7-year-old series. Threenewcomers also join the fray, including: Nagi, Reiji & Ryoho và Mana(fighting together as a unit). Bloody Roar 4 is the second in the series lớn appear on the PS2and the first in the series to receive an "M" rating. Bloody Roar 4 is easily the best looking title in the series,although the character models were actually borrowedfromthe Gamecube version of Bloody Roar: Primal Fury.The backgrounddesigns aren"t too bad, but a weird "magic barrier" confines the action to asquare box... Yeah, don"t even try to lớn make sense of it, it"s just there. One of the stagesalso has a ridiculousamount of slowdown (which ironically makes the trò chơi more fun in myopinion). Lmao.

Bloody Roar"s gameplayengine wasnever really taken seriously among hardcore fighting trò chơi players, for obviousreasons (and other reasons I"ve touched on in past reviews). The game play inthis installment is much of the same... & in this case, that"s a bad thing. The repetitive& downright sloppy gameplay is still fartoo dependant on connecting your super move and changing into beast formso you can khuyến mãi out more damage. I also strongly dislike how you"reforced to lớn get up as soon as you"re knocked down. No, you can"t even "playdead" in Bloody Roar 4. How ironic... Because that"s a trick that animals(and most fighting game characters) should be able to lớn perform,right?

Each character has only one super move... And it"s insultingly easy toexecute & connect. Since the gameplay is so heavily dependant on super moves, it alsobecomes quickly tiresome after watching the same old boring sequence over và over, andover, again.

Some of the priority moves và special moves in this game look decent,but the animation can"t hold a candle to other 3 chiều fighters.The all-important ouch factor lacks "oomph," as many attacks just don"t seem to hurt at all.Characters also appear quite stiff and robotic during their win poses, as seenin the most recent prequels. In anutshell, I got tired of playing this trò chơi in about 10 minutes. Anyone up for some TEKKEN 5, SoulCalibur 2, or Virtua Fighter 4: Evolution? Because my brain cells are starting to hurt just looking at this game.

...then HURRAY for more of this!


Bloody Roar 4"s modesinclude: Arcade, Versus, Time Attack, Training, Sparring, Survival, Com Battle, Careerand Options. Besides the standard fare we"ve seen before, BR4"s CareerMode offers something somewhat different from the norm. Players can take acharacter of their choice through a legion of battles. DNA points are earnedupon winning and can be used lớn buy power-ups like strength và defense bonuses.Players can also purchase new Beast Drives and combos if they can"t seem to winusing the standard 1-button mash-combos & gimmicks. Needless khổng lồ say, BR4is lacking as a console fighting game package when compared khổng lồ many otherfighting games of the early / mid 2000"s.

BOTTOM LINE

3.3 /10

Final Words:Bloody Roar 4 is one of theworst 3d fighting games I"ve ever played. That"s saying a lot, becauseI"ve played some doozies. Sometimes when I look at that 3.3 score... I ponder... was I being too generous? The early and mid 2000"ssaw some amazing evolution và rebirth for many fighting games, especially 3d ones lượt thích the latest TEKKEN and SoulCalibur installments. If anything, Bloody Roar 4 was a shallow and disappointing step backwards in just about every aspect. As a series, Bloody Roar was perhaps showing some signs of progress... With average yet "playable" modern incarnations lượt thích BR3 và BR3: Primal Fury. Sadly, Bloody Roar 4 is more of the same, but not even as good as before. A fewcharacters in Bloody Roar 4 arepotentially likable in someways, but most are just laughable and mostly awkward. More-so, the simplistic, bland, & stiff chơi game was the nail in the coffin for this series.If you were playing Bloody Roar 4 on PS4 instead of "getting gud" at some of the more popular PS2 / Arcade 3 chiều fighting games of 2003-2004, you were definitely missing out on what the fighting genre had to lớn offer at the time... Hard Pass.~TFGWebmaster |
