    I remember my mother getting this for me along with the PS2 when I was younger, being young I had no idea what to do and used to die constantly on one specific mission. A couple of years down the line I was able to find my old copy of the game and bought a PS2 and fired it up and played it again, still challenging but in a good way. One of my favorite games, it has a special place in my heart.

    @CRIMNALSNEAK I agree with everything you’ve said, and I feel the same for other games like Chow Yun-Fat’s Stranglehold and Jackie Chan’s Stuntmaster. Metacritic should feel ashamed of their rating system, a lot of people sadly look at ratings before giving the game a chance and automatically think it’s a bad - while it’s a gem and so much more. I felt like I really was in a movie, it was awesome and will always be!

Lost everything on my memory card, and didn't know because I didn't play for a few days after trying it. Lost my Dot.hack save, my completed GTA:SA file, and several completed Dynasty Warriors game files. I didn't use demo discs after that.

    Something thats interesting to me about Rise to Honor is it’s cinematic elements weren’t received well by my friends growing up. I remember kids in my class saying “that game has too many cutscenes”. Which bummed me out cause I loved the cutscenes. I also had multiple friends who religiously skipped every cutscene for any game. So I don’t know maybe Rise to Honor was slightly ahead of it’s time in that respect. The game is charming though sometimes. The fight in the street with the bus is a part I remember fondly. The washed out ps2 colors vibe worked for that game, and it’s environments are cool to look at I think.

    Try Jackie Chan's underrated masterpiece Ps1 game "Jackie Chan Stuntmaster" . That game is fun because of it's difficulty. It's not polished as Rise to Honor but it has it's own charms, it's filled with Jackie Chan's humor. If you are really good you could beat it at 3 hours not including the secret level. The gameplay is simple it's a beat em up platformer. The platforming difficulties is where it gets difficult and annoying because every level has a different environment than the other and you have to parkour differently so you have to improve yourself throughout the game. Oh and the ost is pretty good too. If beat em up games had a Dark Souls like game, Jackie Chan Stuntmaster is the one. It has no tutorial whatsoever, just survive and save your grandpa, it has some ridiculous annoying bosses and you will die a lot.
