Just another good anime turned into a BAD game.
Nintendo Wii
As an anime fan I wanted this game to be good. A fighting game with swords and the Wii-mote is a great mix, and add in the cel shading this game should be great.......Well should've been great.
Graphics --- This game had the best cel shaded graphics at the time, which makes the game seem like an episode of the anime. I for one love the whole cel shaded anime games.
Sound --- The voice acting from the anime makes a return for this fighting game. The only problem with this is the lack of voice tracks. The repeating voice tracks makes this game aggravating, and is enjoyed with the sound off.
Controls --- You most shake the Wii-Mote to do slash attacks. Shattered Blade has a hard time telling the difference between vertical and horizontal attacks, and this hinders combos. This continuous shaking makes this another Wii-shaker game.
Game Play --- Shattered Blade has the WORST episode mode for any game that I've played. It was called episode mode and thats what it was, just one single episode that has a character that doesn't appear in the anime. This same episode is replayed with every character, which makes this a daunting task to play through.
In All --- This happens to be another great anime that turned into a bad game. With frustrating controls, boring episode mode, and annoying voice tracks I couldn't recommend this game to anyone who is looking for a good fighting game.
