    This is how I litterally learn how to play soccer from these fifa street games compare to how I learn to do skateboarding also from the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater series. 😆 In my opinion, I think the FIFA street games is way more better than the FIFA games. 👌🏾💯

    I remember playing this game a long time ago. But I can never understand why it never seems to save the game. I also could never get passed the very first boss. Me and my bother both didn't know how to beat him.

    Recently played MKSA. Maybe I'm just getting older but I got to the Wu Shi Academy and then I turned it off. It just didn't click with me at all, I got bored. On the other hand the flashy combos in DMC3 and the pumped-up action in that game just kept me playing, it was sooooo much more satisfying and had more character. I wanted to like MKSM, but it just feels very flat, dull and repetitive after 10 minutes. I could however play Deadly Alliance and Deception all day.

    I loved this Game back in the Days and i would say its 110% better than Scull and Bones in so many Ways. Still would call it the best Pirate Game for me. Assassins creed Blackflag was amazing too, but somehow, i liked this here a bit more

    In a genre filled with "don't play for the story" games, this is one of the few shooters where the story is legitimately as amazing as the gameplay. What a game!

    Damn! This one looks horrible. I'd recommend people to just play Ace Combat. It might have a monopoly on the genre but at least the games are really good!

    I've never played this but I just remembered I saw this game before, I think it was some sort of documentary about real life mercenaries? (guns for hire). The protagonist of this game, John Mullins, is actually based on a real life guy who fought in several wars. I specifically remember he appeared in the documentary dismissing this game as not being accurate to what he did at all. While true, I've always thought it was such a douche thing to say lol. Imagine how many people would love to have a game based on them!

    Nice review! This game brings me tons of nostalgia. I used to own a GameCube as a kid and this was one of the few games I had for it before I started focusing more on PC games. I used to replay it over and over! There's a few secrets here and there and the levels never overstay their welcome which I really appreciate. I think the game has aged alright, all things considered!

    Good review! I played it not so long ago and I thought it was just average. The final boss is a bit of a pain in the ass and some parts of the jungle level, particularly the one where you shoot a sniper rifle while being carried on a platform sucked so bad.

    I have been searching for this game for 10 years and now i am in shock that it is one of the worst game of all time. I remember it being hard to complete the first mission where me and my cousins would take turns trying to beat the first mission and i remember it being hard and fun.

    Some people refer to this as "hard cut" or "big boy cut". Since when a big creature is revealed, the person behind the trailer wants to make the game seem as 'epic' as possible, then quickly cut leaving an air of mystery and a desire to see what will happen next. 😅

    I am having difficulty on this game, once you pick up the C4 charges near the end of the game. I cannot get back out because of the invisible monster that attacks you but you cannot fire because of the explosive barrels littered through the corridor. Anybody know how to do it?

    Because this game is repetitive. It would be best to just play one or two episodes at a time per week. And absolutely, it should be played co-op. The steering wheel could work I think, but I think that would need a CRT TV for the light gun to work. I've watched the show. It's pretty decent. But I sincerely wish that Rockstar (North?) Could have made this game. With the control system not only like GTA, but also like Manhunt (without the explicit violence), The Warriors, and Bully.

    It is just one game were I regret there was never a Part 2 and 3. With a better worldwide reception it could had become the MASS EFFECT of it´s days. But because of the second Irak War and the strong opposition to it in Europe Americanism was a curse word at that time. The game really had suffered under a bad publication timing. Hence the German GANESTAR magazin had called it a ridiculous much to cartoonish game were the American Flag was just an unnecessary fetishism

    I was excited to try this since people called it a spiritual successor to Bushido Blade, but couldn't get into it. Felt real clunky and at first. When I played Dark Souls years later, the amount of patience needed reminded me of this game, but getting better at Kengo never felt rewarding to me, unlike Dark Souls.

    Absolutely loved this games back as a stoned teen. I realize it has its shortcomings, but I can't help but wonder how well a concept like this could be realized with today's graphical/hardware capabilities. Shame extreme sports games are all but dead and buried...😢
