Viewtiful Joe

Strengths: Simply Addicting! I can't get enough of it. The game play is so much fun and the speed altering never gets old.

Weakness: Not enough people are aware of it. Perhaps the graphics could be better, but it's meant to look like a comic book, which it does.

The first Viewtiful Joe game was excellent. I showed everyone I know and they were always surprised because none of them had ever heard of the game. Then, the second one came out. Now you can play as Joe's girlfriend Silvia and she adds a lot to the game. She uses her pom poms as a weapon. Ok, I know it sounds kinda lame, but you have to play it to understand. It's a classic game that too few...

Viewtiful Joe

I pride myself on not succumbing to the gaming forces to purchase a GameCube. Sure Nintendo has a proven track record for delivering solid and innovative titles for many years, but many gamers like myself have a more mature taste for games that the GameCube has yet to satisfy. When Viewtiful Joe hit the shelves for the GC, I had hopes (maybe fantasies) Capcom would eventually publish it for other...

Viewtiful Joe (ps2)

One of the finest games to hit the streets last year was Capcom's Viewtiful Joe on GameCube. It was a unique, refreshing 2D action title that boasted incredibly cool visuals and gameplay to match. Thankfully, Capcom has seen fit to share the love by bringing Joe's crazy antics -- plus a few pretty special extras -- to the PS2 for the bargain price of $29.99.

Viewtiful Joe (ps2)

It goes without saying that Capcom's fabled Fantastic Five for the GameCube didn't quite have the impact that its fan base had hoped for. Originally heralded as one of the most powerful reasons to own a Nintendo console in 2003, the highly touted lineup ultimately fell short of expectations. It all began, of course, with the heavily stylized but under-developed futuristic actioner Product Number...
