  • Vou’re Vooking Viewtiful, Voe - Viewtiful Joe

    Oct 21 '03
    Pros: action, frame rate never drops, mach speed/matrix mode
    Cons: kind of short

    Summary: When the going gets tough, the tough gets old-school. There’s a motto that old time gamers can live by. Games these days seem to be hit or miss, with old-school games STILL being preferred over today’s games. Capcom decided to take the good of ... read more

  • Viewtiful Joe is the most original game in a while.

    Apr 10 '04
    Pros: controls,graphics,gameplay,sound,super hero powers, originality
    Cons: Story,only 2 difficulty modes

    Summary: First of this is a very cool game. Its kinda a old school 2d/3d fighter/adventure game. It kinda looks like paper mario without the paper. Its kinda hard to explain. Graphics 10/10 These new original graphics are wonderful. They are a mix of ... read more

  • "Heshin-a-go-go-baby!"

    Mar 22 '04
    Pros: combat system, interesting "old school" graphics, unique gameplay, good sound, replay
    Cons: no multiplayer, limited replay, "Just Go For It" (see review for info.)

    Summary: Viewtiful Joe is possibly Game Of 2003 in my books. Of course, I haven't played Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic, the real Game Of '03. So who am I to judge, right? Well, I guess I'll just say that Viewtiful Joe gets my vote for the Nintendo Power ... read more

  • Like "The Matrix", But It Makes Sense

    Jan 02 '04
    Pros: Excellent graphics and art direction, back to basics gameplay, tight control.
    Cons: Seven of the toughest stages I've played in a long time.

    Summary: Just when I was beginning to think that the current video game climate was wallowing in rehashed gameplay and the lack of innovation, Capcom comes busting through my wall like the Kool-Aid man to b**** slap me different in the form of Viewtiful Joe. ... read more

  • Viewtiful Joe - No Viewtiful cliches here!

    Dec 30 '03
    Pros: Viewtiful graphics, quirky characters, fun fun fun.
    Cons: It can be HARD at times.

    Summary: Viewtiful Joe came in at #2 on my Top 5 Gamecube games of 2003 (Coming Soon!). I am going to try as hard as I can to avoid all the “Viewtiful” cliches in this review, but this game really does have a “Beautiful ... read more

  • Joe Knows Games.

    Nov 23 '03
    Pros: Visuals, challenge, personality, intricate fighting system... you name it.
    Cons: Perhaps too hard for younger or less skilled players.

    Summary: Viewtiful Joe is a little masterpiece, infused with all the characteristics that give a game "classic" status. Older gamers will immediately recognize how strongly it invokes the 16-bit era -- a side-scrolling, two-dimensional beat-'em-up with a heavy ... read more

  • When you're best visuals come from the back of the box...

    Oct 28 '03
    Pros: Great graphic style, smooth animation, neat concept
    Cons: Terrible controls, non-intuitive gameplay

    Summary: There comes a certain point in one's video gaming life, if you stick with it long enough, where simply clearing a game isn't good enough. This is the point in which you wish for a Gaming Olympics, because you're playing with style. Maybe it's in trying ... read more

  • Don't hate me because I'm Viewtiful.

    Oct 16 '03
    Pros: Viewtiful graphics, gameplay, controls, story
    Cons: Lazily added on characters, a little hard, may appear too kiddy though it isn't

    Summary: Intro: There is no proper way to start this review. There's no clever way I can start it without aping someone else's style so I'm just going to say it outright. Viewtiful Joe is perfect in every way. If I sound biased, it's because I am. I'm biased havi ... read more

  • He's Strong, He's Awesome, He's VIEWTIFUL!!!

    Oct 11 '03
    Pros: Awesome gameplay, sweet graphics, cool music and voices, addictive
    Cons: None

    Summary: Just to clarify, "Viewtiful" means "Beautiful View". Now, just to the ladies reading right now: You FINALLY get your couch-potato boyfriend to come with you on a movie date. The movie, unfortunately, is of his favorite Super-Hero named Captain Blue. By do ... read more

  • Everything is so Viewtiful

    Sep 04 '03
    Pros: Everything.
    Cons: Might be challenging for the less skilled gamers, but you'll get used to it.

    Summary: This is El_Scorcho from the Viewtiful Joe Street Team. I've played the import version of this game, and it is simply amazing. Everything you wished you wanted in a game is here. A cool story line, great graphics and music, replay value, and the most im ... read more
