Title: They almost got it right...
Review: I won't go into detail about what I like, that is covered in detail in other reviews.I'll focus on the one thing that RUINED the game for us: the MegaStrike. You're playing along and really getting into the flow of the game when someone uses Megastrike. The action stops. The game goes through the same animation cutscene and obnoxious heavy metal riff before getting to the lousy "minigame" of being a goalie and trying to stop 4 to 6 soccer shots. And it takes so looooong to get past this. Every...single...time. And you can't shut off the feature so you have to be careful not to hit the button combo that causes a Megastrike. Very hard to do. In the end everyone would just groan when it came up and we finally just put it in its box and never played again.We love Maria Golf and Mario Kart and the other wonderful titles but they really blew it on Strikers with the MegaStrike. We sold our Strikers on Amazon for half what we paid for it and were glad to do it.
Is the review positive or negative?
