Bruce Lee: Quest of the Dragon

"Not only is this game a disgrace to the Xbox but also to Bruce Lee in general."

I had high hopes for Bruce Lee but unfortunatey this is one of the worst Xbox games on the market. I have played through this entire game so I feel I can give it a fair review. Bruce Lee is a fighitng game like FInal Fight except a very poor one at that. Here I go!

Graphics- 3/10 Bruce Lee looks just like a Dreamcast game. Granted there are some OK effects and backgrounds but characer models are bland, with choppiness glaore. Bruce Lee also contains the most amount of bugs I have ever seen. Bruce can walk through walls, items disappear, enemies disappear, etc. Did anyone actually play this game before release?

Sound- 1/10 Bruce Lee manages to contain the most annoying SFX ever. Bruce Lee sounds more like a bird than a martial artist when fighit his enemies. Voice Acting is a joke I don't believe I have ever heard voice acting this bad. So bad that I was laughing at it...crying almost. Music is subpar and does nothing to excite the player.

Control- 2/10 Hit decetation is off and most of the time when I am fighting it doesn't FEEL like I am actually fighting the enemy. Camera Angles are a mess as well. The game is also very easy I used only the punch button to beat most of the game.

REplay- The is a 3 hour game and after that there is NO reason to play it again. Most players won't even beat it once or even play 50% through this mess of a game. All you do in this game is fight about 10 baddies take 10 steps fighting 10 more baddies take 10 more steps fighing 10 more baddies. Bad cinemas and load screens are there to mix up the action. THen there are the one on one battles in the game...they are joke and easy.

Story- Bruce is one a quest to save his Dad and recover some relic or something. YAWN.....

THere is no reason to rent or buy this game. It has poor graphics, bad cameras. bad control, poor SFX, long loading, repetitive gameplay, and a lame story. The ending sucks the game is short. So stay far away from this game it has no good qualities if it was released 3 years ago on Dreamcast it would still be a poor game but not in this day and age Bruce Lee is a sorry sight for the eyes and ears.
