Viewtiful Joe was one of the highest rated games of the console generation. IGN gave Viewtful Joe a 9.5, or "Outstanding" rating, citing the beautiful cell-shaded graphics and high intensity action made it one of the best action games on the Gamecube. Viewtiful Joe won the player's choice awards in Nintendo Power. The G4 television program X-Play named Viewtiful Joe the 9th best game of all time for the GameCube. Viewtiful Joe's gameplay is very unusual and draws inspiration from classic side-scrolling brawlers such as River City Ransom and Double Dragon. Joe has three 'VFX' {Viewtiful Effects} powers, which are designed to emulate camera tricks seen in movies such as The Matrix: Slow, Mach Speed, and Zoom In. All of these are used in combat and to solve the game's puzzles. Henshin a go-go, baby!Vollständige Rezension lesen
Viewtiful Joe for Nintendo Gamecube was a complete surprise to me. First off, I've been a gamer since my family first got the NES for Christmas when I was six. The NES, SNES, and Genesis were all about the side scrolling beat em' up style fighter. Since then, we haven't seen too many quality games of this genre. Viewtiful Joe however brought all that back to me on this title, and its great to be back. Viewtiful Joe is cell shaded and heavy on style, which works great. It has a simple story that's just enough to keep you into the game, but realizes that you are just here to beat people up. Speaking of putting on the beat down, I gotta say its fun. You will find yourself doing all of Joe's cool moves just because they look cool. With that said, the game is rather challenging for the casual gamer, especially in the later levels, and even more so in Adult Mode. The good news is that the hardcore gamer will be challenged, but the bad news is that the challenge will only last 6-8 hours for the experienced. There are some unlockables that might bring you back for more however. Overall the game is fun, looks great, is more of a challenge than most games on the market. Viewtiful Joe brings back a nostalgic feeling for retro gamers, even though its something new, or was, at the time of release.Vollständige Rezension lesen
This was my first time playing a Viewtiful Joe game after hearing goods things about the series, and I wasn’t disappointed. The game is fun and challenging, but not to the point of frustration and the music is amazing. The only thing I really disliked was how some of the mechanics were handled, some of the things you can do weren’t explained all that well, but it didn’t hinder my enjoyment of the game. Overall it’s a fun time and gave me more excitement to try the other games in the series, I totally recommend this game, it’s a viewtiful experience.
