3.0 out of 5 stars Red Hot Rumble Is a bit of a fizzle, November 28, 2005

By	Aaron L. Shaw "Casual Reviewer" (Provo, UT USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 

The Viewtiful joe Games are just about as good as they come. Inventive, fast, cool action, cool graphics. They are the poster child for better games without better graphics. Unfortunately this game does not include most of that. Part of the charm of the VJ series is the cool little puzzles all the way through. This game has none of them. When you actually try to replicate the fun of super smash brothers and have four fighters at once. Forget it. You can hardly understand what is happening on the screen. The single player is decent, but that is about it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Really Fun Game!, October 14, 2006

By	Sam Fisherman "Sam" (Honolulu, HI) - See all my reviews

Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 

This game is often compared to Super Smash Brothers which is a classic fighting game. But to compare the two is to compare apples and oranges. Viewtiful Joe Red Hot Rumble is an arcade type of game complete with bonuses and all the action. All of VJ's super powers like slow motion are there. If you like the feel of his action, you will like the feel of this game. But if you want to really see where this game is at its best, then invite a couple of friends over for a party. In this sense, it is like Mario Party in that it has mini games and some funny scenarios. This is definitely a worthy game to add to the Viewtiful Joe collection. If you like arcade games, then this one is for you!
