What They Say:
Check out these quotes from reviews & previews
"While the game started out with good, unique intentions, none of the games features are correctly executed."
"Unfortunately, none of Beatdown's interesting design ideas were executed well, leaving you with a game that feels half-baked and suffers from terrible pacing."
"For anyone just casually looking for a fun fight game, this is most definitely not the game you're looking for. And for the beat-'em-up fans who want something new, just playing Beat Down feels enough like getting kicked down the stairs that you won't return to the genre any time soon."
"Playing through this game is an exercise in the most extreme forms of repetition. Fight, kill, fight, kill, fight, kill, and on it goes. It never gets better, it never gets worse. It's the same thing over and over."
"Capcom actually had a few good ideas with Beat Down. The story is interesting, but many of the scenes seem forced. Controlling the different characters could have been cool, but their movesets are pathetically underdeveloped."
