There are so many PS2 era games that get lost in the shuffle. It's a shame.
>Cucknami
While it's true that Konami has sucked since the 2000s, in the '80s and early '90s Capcom really wasn't fit to tie their shoes.

I disagree. Capcom made the better platformers / run 'n guns, shmups, and beat 'em ups / fighting games. Konami was an average developer at best and just ripped off whatever was popular at the time but never pushed any boundaries themselves.

Turtles is a quite boring game with nice graphics and music. People only like it for the license. Capcom made way better brawlers. Punisher, Battle Circuit, Cadillacs & Dinosaurs, Powered Gear.

I know Punisher and C&D were games with licenses, too but where I come from C&D wasn't even remotely a thing.

Are they hard in the sense that you have to learn their patterns, or hard in the sense that your character is gimped and you have to power him up somehow to match them.

Haven't played the game yet, btw, but that seems to be a problem with a lot of 6th gen action games.

>>	Anonymous Wed May 19 00:18:03 2021 No.7770921 >>7770867 You have to learn their patterns. Shadow of Rome has really amazing combat, it's fun at first and then there's a steep learning curve that keeps going to the final boss

Purely soul/10, the desert world was not fun imo and just difficult in a repetitive way. The art direction for gladius was amazing and the graphics were pretty good. The og xbox version is the way to go for best experience.

Fuck icarus and cronos. Both were insanely hard boss battles and required some grinding and saving items to beat them. I wish the ending was better than what was presented. There far better 3d action games on the ps2 but it's still worth a playthrough.

The only bad thing about this game is that weapon durability sucks. I had my first playthrough on Hard, and sometimes I spent more time running around trying to grab weapons than actually fighting. Even using certain power combos won't save you. There was a certain gauntlet that took me 5 tries to clear, just because weapons kept breaking.
