PSP Rengoku review:1 stars (Lots of Repitition, Boring Concept...Weak.) - I have been renting alot of games since I got my PSP and this is hands down the worst of the lot. Like a previous reviewer said, the intro looked cool, but when you get to the game there is alot of disappointment.
First, the game play is terrible - the D pad is almost useless to use with any accuracy, and it's hard to control. Also, the character looks almost like a stick figure, and the 3rd person view, along with the garbage control made me feel like my character was flailing around.
Second, this game is about as repetitive as the old Pitfall for Atari 2600, except that is better. The rooms look the same and have just a different amount of crates in different configurations. At least Pitfall changed things up a little.
Third, the game is just not very friendly to the user - the options and menu screens seemed very difficult to use, (changing weapons), in fact weapons I picked up just seemed to disappear on the menu screens, (guess I did sorting wrong...) and interface is not very user friendly. You can't save the game when you want - and overall, I can't find any redeeming qualities to this game other than the cool movie intros. Do not even rent! 3 stars (Rengoku is an awsome game depending on who you are) - Rengoku is about a robot trying to get to the top of a tower. On each level of the tower you enter a map wit rooms containing enemies. after you reach the rooms (there are very few in each level) a warp is opened to the next level containing a boss. The game repeats with a new level them boss and so on. The maps aren't repetitive and in the begining the game is a little hard. But as you progress through the levels you aquire more weapons which make the game easier. Rengoku is a great game about strategy and weapons with great controls. the controls are the controls that you would figure you might use, nothing more nothing less. Personally i think it was a great game but kids under the age of 12 might find it difficult and abandom the game. So don't get if for kids under that age. I hope I helped you.1 stars (Nice graphics. Horrible game.) - This game is boring, repetative and downright dull. The concept was cool but the coolness is overshadowed by the poor controls, poor sound, cheesy bosses and HIGHLY repetative maps.
Avoid this game like the plague. Trust me. PSP Rengoku Features: Video Games PS2 (PSX2) Sony Playstation (Play station) 2 Playstation2 (Play station2) Action Adventure PlayStation Portable ESRB Rating: M (Mature) Action/Adventure
