I'd love to get your take on it.<BR/><BR/>And hey, always good to hear of another Kya fan.

My son and i have both played thru Kya and enjoyed it; i recommend it to family members who still own ps2s because of the mechanics, narrative, and creativity that went into the game.<BR/><BR/>If Eden did half as well with Alone in the Dark, i'm in for a treat...i'm looking forward to it.Bemusedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14502736947887510094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4625171860671748699.post-57294668774822701092009-03-20T00:22:00.000-07:002009-03-20T00:22:00.000-07:00I actually did try Crimson Viper, and although I t...I actually did try Crimson Viper, and although I think she is probably the best out of the new characters, she still didn't really grab me. They all look so... generic. They seem to lack style, and they're not as visually memorable as the original cast or even the second wave of additions.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I can't really pinpoint it right now, but it's just not grabbing me.

I'm guessing that you haven't tried to play as C. Viper yet. She's a very hard character to use, but she has a fighting mechanic completely her own which, when used right, is a real crowd-pleaser. Same can be said about El Fuerte. Also, if you can, try unlocking Akuma and Gouken. I really dig this game's Akuma.<BR/><BR/>Gotta agree that Rufus is uninspired. Also hated Seth, but it's not hard to defeat him if you keep blocking low.<BR/><BR/>I don't sit beside you while playing it but, besides your dislike of the graphics (which I disagree with, but that's a matter of what graphic styles we prefer), I don't understand why you don't like it. The only possible reason I can come up with is that you're playing it in exactly the same way you've been playing Street Fighter II. Yes, I guess that'd win you games, but unless you explore the MP+MK move, the dash cancels, and the EX moves, it won't be a terribly exciting game. Also, you should try the challenge mode because it teaches you the combos of each characters, and some, like Sakura, has a lot of really fun combos.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
