| b_minter6969's Full Review: Bloody Roar for PlayStation 1 |
Animal spirits are usually summoned to cleanse the mind, or unlock secrets of the past. In Bloody
Roar, the animal does one thing - it kills. If you find your puny human shell taking a beating, simply tap
the button to unleash the beast and turn the tables on your opponent.
The beast form has its ups and downs. While it is the stronger side of the dual personality, it is also the
one that can be used the least. To transform into the beast, several strategic elements must be in place.
First of all, the Beast Meter must have enough power to summon your alternate form. Also, you'll want
to morph when the meter has enough to sustain a lengthy Rave (super speed). Lastly, it's nice to use
when your health is low - since the beast regenerates.
The human can hold its own, but with the hulking mutate, you'll have an additional attack button to
work with - meaning more combos, more throws, and more blood spilled. As with Tekken, Bloody
Roar is loaded with specials, unbelievable throws, and silky smooth animation. To rail off another
fighting game comparison, the combat interface is also very much like Virtua Fighter's two attack
button system - where applying additional directional movements results in more moves.
Roar is a fast-paced game that features colorful graphics, a well-rounded cast, and unrealistic
maneuvers that are a blast to perform. The hit ratio is well balanced, allowing for lengthy fights, unless
of course you master a character's combos. All of the goodies that you would expect from a modern
day fighter are found in this title.
