And here is one of the first games I ever played! Is it good? I can't remember anything xD

i love this game even though it has its problems. i always thought the platforming was really fun.

I loved this game when I was a kid but the loading screens were painfully long, even then. At least 3 full minutes on every loading screen if not more. The game is fun and you can combo punches and kicks, grab weapons, and parkour around, although it does look really goofy and it's very short.

While short and clunky in a lot of ways, the game mechanics work consistently enough (for a PS1 game, still expect to fall through shit sometimes tho) that the surprisngly in depth combat system and even the platforming take on a very unique charm that really feels like a "Jackie Chan" game. Character models are some of the most basic I've seen on the system, but the game offsets this by having some of the best animation work, both in the FMVs and in-game engine. Jackie actually did MoCap for this and it shows, A big grin came over my face when I realized you could go Drunken Fist Jackie. This game does have difficulty spikes that can make progression tedious and difficult, due to a lives system (tho this can be partially offset by collecting enough gold dragons to unlock the Shaolin Temple, which is a great spot to quickly farm lives.) and once all collectables and levels are completed, there's nothing much to see or revisit, but it's a fun ride while it lasts, and I wish more movie martial artist focused games got the kind of love this did.
