the graphics are really good on this game. really good. the rest of the game was so dissapointing, that i couldn't stand it! this was the first game i bought for the xbox (i bought it in january, so i didn't get it right away). i wasn't terribly excited for it, but it was the only game i was interested in at the time. i took it home and started playing it against my roommate. it was pretty fun. i thought that the character models were barely better than DOA2 on dreamcast, but you can definitely tell the difference in the level detail. beautiful, especially the forest. well, my roommate went to bed, so i dive into single player. let's see there's story mode and survival and... training...ugh. that's it? what the hell? well, maybe the endings are really cool. geez this game is really easy (first 6 levels). THIS IS THE CHEAPEST BOSS EVER!!! (final boss). i'm just going to start mashing buttons before i throw the controller through the window. wait a minute! if i constantly mash the black button when i'm close to him, there's nothing he can do! yes, it's true! if you can get close to the final boss, just wail on the black button until he's dead. how many characters were there? 16? this worked the first 14 times i faced the boss. he finally caught on the last 2 times, so i had to beat him normally, but i thought that was super lame. after beating the game with each character in 2 days, i took the game back, very dissapointed. my xbox sat there until jet set radio came out. 6/10
