User Rating: 5.3 | Nightshade PS2

The gameplay is very bland and it isnt too hard when you learn the controls. Its cool until you play for 45 min and then you'll want to move on. Most of the levels look n feel the same it isnt really all that. The combat could use work and the characters move kinda stiff like they really arent people yknow. If you really want to play a game like this play devil may cry, just as hard but easier to look at. The character movemnt seems very stiff and robotic it was a real turn off for this title but the variety of the conrtols kept me goin for a while with this game eventually it gets boring though.Oh well....i give it 5.3 blehs....out of 10
