I really think Gamespot sucks.

Unfortunately, every idea unique to this game is downright archaic.
No shit, it's from 1991.

It looks like most of the comments disagree with reviewer,when I seen it up on xbla I got excited and said "Great another DL only game I want".I havent played it but cant see how it can get bad reviews unless your comparing it to modern gen which you shouldnt.
If you can see the future while remembering the past, you may just have control of the present.

Konami, would you please release your beat-em-ups on disc, please?!

This happens whenever old beat'em ups get re-released. There's always a reviewer or two who bashes it. It's the same thing with Dynasty Warriors games. They love them in the east, but they get bashed by reviewers here.

Same old, same old. Most reviewers are like broken records to me

I played Dynasty Warriors 6 at my friend's house... It actually looked and played worse than Dynasty Warriors 3 did a decade ago. That series deserves all the shit hurled its way.

Gamespot can suck a big fat one.

I know this shit is typical, but that's one of the most poorly thought out reviews I've ever read.

More Arcade ports need to be made like this one. The graphics sound and gameplay are spot on, and I really like the Arcade cabinet skin. Sharing credits between players really makes the game more like it was intended to be, one bad player can make the game too hard to advance. All of the other beat-em ups on XBLA need to be updated with this as the default setting.

Unlimited respawn type continues just ruins these games and makes all of the kiddos think the games were shallow to begin with.

A lot of fans don't like DW 6. I was referring to reviewers treatment of the series as a whole

I was going to read that review, but then I stopped at the first sentence:
There are times when the past is best remembered rather than revisiting.
I can't, just can't. It's too early to have a rage at some dickhead on the internet.
