60 Second Review of...
Daikatana
Tom's review: [insert your own joke here]
Mark's review: Romero et al want to plead the
Lear defense — this is a game more sinned against than
sinning. It's true that gamers and the press punched Daikatana
more often than a Palm Beach ballot as it continually slipped
release dates. Maybe the most ridiculous moment was when Ion
Storm staged a release party for the game in December of '99
and then took months more to actually finish it. I was hoping
that despite the soap opera dramatics, Romero and his team
would deliver a good game. They didn't. The graphics are lackluster,
the AI abysmal, the level design confusing, and the game simply
is a chore to play instead of being fun.
