This game is awesome!
Dynamite Cop but good!

So on the basis, it's a reskin of Dynamite Cop but they still put a lot of unique things in it. First difference is all cutscenes have been remade, mostly using Cop as basis but also taking some from Deka 1. But most of them are unique, which I appreciate a lot.

But these aren't just retextures oh no! They actually bothered to make new things for the layouts to make sense!

On the gameplay side, each character can turn into 3 different forms...you have Chinese hopping vampire, some kind of Voldo type bloody lady, A JACKIE CHAN PARODY FIGHTING WITH A STOOL NAMED BLUE LEE, A HULK HOGAN INSPIRED ONE NAMED KING KHAN and so on.

Bruno returns! Not sure if Banana returns but we see a strange monkey in those illustration puzzle pieces you can collect for ending illustrations? Didn't bother completing these but they're probably onlline.

Wolf Hongo returns! And goddamn he got the drip, his fucking shades and golden suit rules and then he turns into a fucking Terminator as the final boss! Fuck yeah! I love this shit.

Newcomers are both baddies too, nice.

Location and progression of it makes a little less sense...like we go from building to ship to whatever and it's funny lol.
They added random trivia questions to the QTEs! Whoever came up with this is evil! But it fits the game's vibe...

God, thank god I failed that Otaku's quiz, it was so fucking fun to fight him in the Japanese DVD store and slap the fuck out of him against the DVD racks lol

The whole game is now like martial arts movie cliches, eastern mythologhy and everyday life culture from said places and all of that combined onto this very american movie inspired framework and pumped up to 10 times on crack in a blender. I love it, this is technically the last entry in the series and the entry I finished the series with and I couldn't ask for a better finale!

Also you know, everyone and the whole game looks appealing, they fixed one of my biggest peeves with Deka 2 and now the whole game feels fun too!

I was thinking why it came out in 2007 but the reskin of Deka 1 on PS2 probably inspired them and they probably wanted to go overboard instead of a more loyal reskin this time lol...I bet the Altered Beast mode inspired them a lot!

You know, something ive noticed about these types of games that love to depict slavery is that they always conjure images of American slavery despite the fact that slavery as a practice has existed forever, for every type of person on every continent. Like here, it sounds like the main villian (?) is trying to build an empire, which requires manual labor. The first thing that would come to my mind is the subordination of say, the Egyptians to build the pyramids or captives of the Romans working ore mines for coin minting, both of which were different institutions but idk every time some White Guy wants to write about slavery its always underground railroad stuff except White. If youre gonna talk about slavery you cant be stupid about it, obviously, but there is a way to implement it into your work without appropriating the very recent and tangible suffering of black people, specifically.
Great review though! It was very concise and I love how you led us through like, thought experiments showing us why the writing is awful and doesnt hold up instead of just being like "this sux cause its racist", which is true, but the way you wrote it is really engaging ^_^

zakkusu is now playing Onimusha: Warlords
