5 stars (Great movie, great game) - The game brings the movie to life with nice graphics & game play. The controller setup is pretty easy to master after playing the game for a few minutes. The story various lines are interesting and add flavor to the game. 5 stars (A Great Buy) - I was scared when I bought this. I'm a teacher and don't have a lot of money to throw around. I thought I should wait until the price went down. I am so happy I didn't. This game is a blast!!! Great story. FANTASTIC fight scenes. Challenges and extras. I played it... finished it after a week or so... and immediately started over. This games replay value is great. In the positive, this game has a lot going for it -varied fight styles for each character -easily mastered controls for all the moves -ability to "rumble" outside of the story with any gang you like -plus, those rumbles can be one on one or have up to nine guys per gang!!! That was awesome!! Although the Baseball Furies ate me for breakfast. -Great visuals. I love how each gang is introduced with the freeze frame. -Remarkably great and cheesy bonus game at the end. That was way fun. -Bonus missions that tell how the gang was formed. Fun from a game perspective and very entertaining for grizzled old fans of the movie like myself. -Best replay value of any game I've seen in two years. -Lots of insides in the story for the fan of the movie. Some downsides -Gets a bit confusing when all the fighters are standing in one spot. I end up hitting my own guys alot. -Lots of time spent trying to beat a gang's boss. I hate that but these bosses are few (maybe a half dozen) and relatively easy to pass (compared to other games) -May be too violent and criminal for some and was right on the edge for me. You make money by mugging people and you get your health from a pusher. Authentic, sure, but not something you want the church group playing. -Language. This game definitely earns its M rating. In the end, the perks FAR ... Rockstar Games :: xb :: the :: warriors :: rockstar :: games :: games :: video :: games :: xbthewarriors 18 october :: 200 :: XB The Warriors
