This game was one I had high hopes for. I saw pre-release stuff for this at gamestop almost 3 months before hand, and I hyped myself up. I prepared for whatever the game was going to be like. Let me paint you a picture, you might enjoy it more than me. You go to the store, and you see this game on the shelf. On the case, you see all your favorite characters, from Ryu and Ken to Megaman and Zero to Kite and Blackrose. So you buy the game, thinking it can't be bad with so many successful franchises backing it. It even starts off at a nice pace. You start out in front of a mansion with a pair of characters by the name of Kogor? Tenzai and Mii K?ry?ji. Mii has hired Kogor? to help locate a stolen item known as the Portalstone, some sort of magical macguffin which has magical powers. All of the sudden, several monsters begin appearing, and you are tasked with fending them off. When you do, all they say is that they should look into it, then cuts to somewhere else entirely. This pattern begins to rinse and repeat for a while, until you get your first mainstay characters at the end of the first chapter. Now, the first thing I did was look for some way to replay past levels, as I wanted to be dealing more damage than I was. I looked through all the menus in the game, and lo and behold, what did I find? Nothing, except for a training mode, used to learn the controls and timings better. So I just shrugged, figuring that it would be unlocked at a later point. Fast forward 15 hours and 20 levels later, and it was still nowhere to be found, and the game was getting really hard, as the bosses gained the ability to multiply. At this point, I was greatly relying on the randomly dropped healing items to get through the game, so I thought 'you know what would be really nice right now? An item shop, something so I don't have to rely on the RNG to get by' So I went back into the menus, and presto, all that was there was training mode, and a bio sheet for all the character's and enemy's, telling you about them, and what game they were from. So I continued on, being more careful to protect my health, and tried to take down one enemy at a time. Then, after about another 7 levels, and another 7 hours, I started getting to levels where they would attack with 50+ enemies at any one time. So, I looked at my settings to make sure I wasn't on any sort of harder difficulty or anything, but as far as I could tell, I was on Easy. By this point, I had lost any semblance over what the story may have been about, and one stage would begin to blend into the next. At around Chapter 34, I just set it down, not having the time or patience to finish it. I was done, having just barely avoided several game overs in the last stage, which took me at least an hour and a half, and I was done. It just goes to show that a great cast of character's does not guarantee a good game.
