Kingdom Under Fire: Circle of Doom Reviewed

Geekpulp has reviewed Kingdom Under Fire: Circle of Doom for the Xbox 360.
"This review might come across as overly negative, but it's worth noting that Circle Of Doom is a passable game. I've compared it to Ninety Nine Nights, a game that I played through to the end in spite of horrid voice acting (L-l-landslide!?) and dubious skill requirements, and I definitely prefer Circle Of Doom"

Although it's not looking like a bad game, it'll be hard to choose this title over the flood of great games out at the moment. Maybe it would have been wise to release this in a few months, during the historical 'lull' in the release schedule (jan-mar).
I understand that publishers need to start earning revenue of their investments as soon as possible, but releaseing right now won't do it any favors.

EDIT: Just informed 2008 US release, cool. ignore me :)

Sparky, the US won't see it untill early 2008. New Zealand gets it early for some reason

[power of Green]

Next month it will sell alright because nothings out and the co-op will appeal to people. Not writing this game off because some no name reviewer has a opinion.

[Brianemone]

The reviewer says he enjoyed it and that while it might not be of the other games avilable at the moment it is still a good game.

[SparkyNZ]

Just read above, if US doesn't get it til 2008 then it is a good move.
Basically ignore everything I just said, lol

[Rikitatsu]

The game was meant for the japanese market to begin with , and we saw how it bombed in sales in japan

[DarkSniper]

Games like this have no reason to be on the XBOX 360 console. The Japanese market clearly have the wise mind to know that XBOX 360 is a garbage console and PLAYSTATION 3® is the ultimate source in home multimedia and gaming entertainment.

You are right, this crap belongs on the PS3. You would expect to see crappy games like this on the PS3, not the 360.

That said, I am still looking foward to giving it a throw. After Playing through so much Dynasty Warriors these games all feel the same, but I am hoping this might add something different to the mix.

[Fearless]

outside NZ atm its got alot of framerate issues im sure they will get sorted over the next month or so.
Its a good game tho regardless like he says nothing spectactular but fun nonetheless.

[MK_Red]

If it's like Ninety Nine Nights then I'll like since I loved N3 and think it was really underrated.

[Bill]

This review is just the start of things to come, once Sony unleashes their game line up for 2008. Everything else will just pale in comparison

[WIIIS1]

I disagree. This game is worse than N3. And N3 is quite crappy. And yes I have played it.

[Brianemone]

That will come down to personal preference IMO. If you listen to the podcast one of the guys likes it and the other doesn't.

[SuperSaiyan4]

ASIA version is region free and in full English got it on ebay for £29.98 including delivery but waiting for it to turn up.

[UltramanJ]

I just picked N3 up the other day brand new for $7.50, and am having some fun with it. I'm not expecting much from Kingdom, but I'll also be waiting for the real sources I depend on to crank out their reviews.
