Yuu Yuu Hakusho 2: Kakutou no Shou
Yu Two?Genre: fighting - 1v1
Publisher: Namco
Year: 1994
System: SFC
Gameplay Score: 3
Gameplay Notes:
At this point I feel like a broken record. This game features a roster of 10 fighters and fairly standard SF2-style gameplay. As with most of these games I struggled to figure out how to perform special moves. A few of the SF inputs work but I couldn't find more than one per fighter. I know there's more because the opponents spam them like crazy. Movement feels ok, although your jumps are mostly vertical. They have less horizontal movement thatn I feel they should. Unfortunately there's no difficulty levels and only four buttons. Also, a lot of slowdown hampers the experience.
Level Design Score: 3
Level Design Notes:
Has your standard modes, minus a tournament mode. Again, the lack of difficulty settings is a drawback.
Theme Score: 3
Theme Notes:
I don't know much about Yu Yu. It's a bunch of spiky haired people. There's some variety in the character designs and the menus and players select screens look ok.
Art Style Score: 4
Art Style Notes:
Nice sprites with ok animation. The special moves don't look very good, due to the less-than-ideal animation. The sprites aren't huge but are nice and chunky. Clean, colorful artwork with a consistent look and feel. I really like the screen shake effect when landing a powerful attack. Some slowdown
Audio Score: 4
Audio Notes:
Good music and sound effects
Overall Score: 64
