User Rating: 7.5 | Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo HD Remix PS3
This game is pretty much nothing more than a game of Tetris, but with lots of silly animations thrown into the mix. You go head-to-head against the console or a friend, and the whole point is to just eliminate your little boxes more quickly than your opponent. All the while, you and your opponent are represented on screen by a cartoonish version of one of Capcom's iconic characters, such as Ryu or Chun-Li. Depending on how many boxes you can clear at once, your character performs special attacks against the opponent. At some point, a special finishing attack is executed, and the round is yours!
It's a simple game, and the controls are simple, too. Only two buttons and the analog stick matter. The game is very short on depth, but it's really just intended to be a pleasant diversion to pass the time. The fact that the noises and dialogue are so totally Japanese kitsch makes the whole experience that much more fun. And the fact that it's an inexpensive download from the PSN makes it worth acquiring, if only for a pleasant diversion. It's great for kids, too!
Overall, a simple game that is both silly and fun. This won't give you much of a challenge, but it will help you mindlessly pass some time.
