Seriously? This is a review?

There is little commentary beyond observations into Darth Vader and the Apprentice.

For the record:
- SC enjoys a long history of cross-franchise licensing
- Those cross-franchise characters are generally OP compared to the stock characters
- This is a fighting game. Stories -- especially good ones -- should be the exception, not the rule. People play these things to kick this shit out of each other, not read fanfics about babes chasing weird-ass flesh-swords. It's more abhorrent to me that they even tried to insert a story in the first place.
- The real substance of the game is in Tower mode, which I don't seem to recall you mentioning at all. Neither do you say much about character generation mode.
- Also, if the Apprentice kicked your ass that hard, then you really do suck. Yes, he's difficult... but six hours? C'mon, if it took you that long then someone else needs to review fighting games at FS. It took me about a dozen tries to finally down him with Ivy, and one of my closest friends had a similar track record with Vader when I was at his place.

And what kind of brand equity does Packard Bell have? They're so dead, and their computers sucked so much...

Minx? You give her far too much credit. Minx implies class, or a suave flair, or something other than being an attention-whoring piece of rich guttertrash.

http://www.firingsquad.com/media/gallery_image.asp/1419/4

Why are there xbox buttons in that screenshot? It looks nicely upscaled, but haven't they updated their text yet? Or is this running emulated on a 360?
