I'm missing the freedom to move within a scene that River City Ransom has, here there is the classic and frustrating throwing of enemies off screen then waiting for them to get up and get back in the frame because the camera is locked in place.

The game can feel very redundant..

For anyone that's ever played a brawler title, it won't take you long to jump in head first into this title. You'll be able to select from two characters (one of which we're pretty sure is a distant cousin of M. Bison) and then into the fray you'll be tossed.

For anyone that's ever played a brawler title, it won't take you long to jump in head first into this title. You'll be able to select from two characters (one of which we're pretty sure is a distant cousin of M. Bison) and then into the fray you'll be tossed. You're only goal is to beat your way through a bevy of enemies until you reach an end boss that must be dispatched. To say that they game borrows heavy from earlier beat 'em up titles would be a gross understatement.

The hit detection is probably the game's biggest flaw as it sometimes feels like there's no sweet spot for attacking any one opponent. It can also be difficult to assess who is doing the grabbing when you're up close to an enemy. Rival Turf blatantly attempts to clone the visual makeup of Final Fight. In all honesty it would be impossible to count the similarities.
