But the hype killed it.

If it was marketed as a fighting game with RPG elements, toned down the hype, it would have received better reviews, I bet.

But Square didn\'t hype it. The media did.


With fighting games as deep as they are today, the Bouncer can\'t even be compared.  Fighters have tons of moves for at least 10 people or more.  The Bouncer has quite a few moves for only three people (from what I have heard), which is nothing compared to real fighters.

And I have to dissagree with you about "Square didn\'t hype it.  The media did."  Square is the one who showed us that awesome movie that showed guys fighting and using things from the environment.  The real game is nothing like that -- which is a letdown to almost everyone.  I agree that the media did hype it,  but Square did a little hyping of their own.

What is up with Gamepro?  I was shocked when I saw their review of The Bouncer.  And right next to it, they had a review of Oni.  While I don\'t think this game is great, I think Gamepro gave it a way too little score: Graphics:    3.0
Sound:        2.5
Control:      1.5
Fun Factor: 2.0

Also, like Deadly Hamster said, Sky Oddesy got an awful score from Gamepro, while it\'s IGN\'s second best game (second to Madden).

I guess it\'s just a matter of oppinion though.  That\'s why I read reviews from lots of different sources, so I know what I\'m buying before I shell out 50 bucks for it.

I\'m sorry, Game Pro is the worst magazine available onthe market, not just game mag...MAG! They suck, and they think it is cool to give really good games bad scores, and really bad games good scores.

The Bouncer is a really great game, and GamePro gave the same numbers I would have given the Bouncer if I were to review it.

GamePro is a great mag, their website sucks though. But the magazine is good. GamePro and EGM are my two favorite game magazines.

However, I was a little shocked myself. But everyone is entitled to their opinion.

I subscribe to Gamepro, and I get EGM for free (thank you EB :)).  My younger brother gets PSM.  My favorite is PSM.  They use reall small text, so they can put a lot of info (or a lot of rambling ;)) into one page.  I can\'t decide which one I like more between Gamepro and EGM though.

actually there are about 8-10 more characters that can be unlocked i think

am not sure but they all have their own moves also

but this is in no way suppost to be a tekken typr fighter - it is suppost to be more like final fight - but with more depth

the review by gamepro doesn\'t mention anything bad about Bouncer and that makes me worry about their review - because i played it was not very happy about the Stupid AI of the enemies and your alies - talkabout no help at all - and a couple of other thing bothered me as well
