VR Troopers - beat Giant mode on Easy difficulty. This is a mediocre fighting game with a few unique elements, like how you can't control your guys in the air -- once you leave the ground, you can only attack, not control your jump. That's quite rare in this genre. Also, it has no continues, so if you lose a match, that's it, you start again from the beginning. This is why I played on Easy; if it let you continue like every other fighting game I'd be fine with Normal, but as it is, that'd take QUITE a while to beat. Anwyay, teh game's pretty mediocre. Giant graphics mode is amusing, though -- in this mode the sprites are as tall as the screen, which is different to say the least. :) There's also a normal mode, where they're smaller, but the time I played through it it was in this mode. The game has three playable characters, the three characters in the show, for story mode, but the plot is quite minimal, and the ending barely extant, so it's not much of a "story" mode. There are a line or two of text between matches though. There's also a mode without a story, where you play as either the three VR Troopers or five of the bosses, but I didn't bother with that one. Anyway, this was probably worth the very low price I paid, but I wouldn't pay much more than that.
