Ranma 1/2: Hard Battle

"A crazy game with humor. A LOT of humor!!"

Can you guess this? This is my review to Ranma 1/2 hard Battle!!!(I think). The game is made by Ocean. Game is to Super Nes system. I hope this is the game I got that I review, cuz I'm not really sure. At the box, there's just the text Ranma 1/2 , nothing more. Well, I hope I'm right.

This game is really wicked. Characters are kinda crazy, and yeah, this game is totally nuts.(But what could you expect, it is Ranma 1/2, one of the most wicked Manga I ever seen.) No doubt, this is a strange fighting game, and I guess it is for Ranma fans. Anyway, here's my review:

(All stuff is only compared with snes-ga(y)mes)

Grafic: Grafic is at medium, maybe a little bit over to be on Snes. Characters are well painted, and so are backgrounds, but there are no cool special effects. Normal grafic.

Score Grafic: 7.3/10

Music/Sound: Music variates much. Sometimes music is really terrible(as at the bull's stage) but at some stages there are ok music. But overall, music is nothing cool. Turn on your cd, and jam some over there instead. Sound is good strangely. I like the kick- and punch-sounds.

Score Music/Sound: 4.8/10

Control: Control is impossible to describe. Some characters are good(like the panda) but some has terrible ones(like Mattheus). Yeah, control got stretch(with other words, not good control).

Score control: 5.3/10

Funniness: Here are what highers the total score. It is funny to see this wicked game work. It does have some humor, and I like the panda knocking the other one down. Yeah, funniness is ok.

Score funniness: 8.4/10

Challenge: This is a fighting game! Can you put a challenge score on a fighting game? Nah, you can't. But there are story mode, so I can put a score at that, 8.3/10. But the else, depends on the homie you fight against.

Score challenge: # of 10.

Overall: A big flop, or a big laugh? Well, you decide. I think the game is more funny than a flop, so overall score by me are:

Overall Score: 5.6/10

TOTAL SCORE(Score on a line between 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10): 5/10.

Last wicked line: A crazy game with humor. A LOT of Humor!!
