Jujutsu Kaisen: Cursed Clash Is Lazy & Disappointing... | Review 

SPARKING ZERO SAVE US 😭

What's crazy is this game legit had a DVD Menu screen as the MAIN MENU for what's supposed to be a AAA anime fighting game, and people were JUSTIFYING IT

Whoa , Ones Justice 2 was extremely better than the original

LMAOOOOOOO the absolute disrespect of not using the Retro Rebound set, I love it. The roller coaster of anime game reviews on RR is peak content, man.

Bruh that main menu was like a menu of bootleg DVD in 2000s

0:47 I still hope we get a video on Granblue Fantasy: Relink. Really want to know your thoughts on it

Id love to see anime games that have some originality, especially with a medium where you can do so much and just play it off as filler.

The fact that Matty hasn't brought up Jojo's bizarre adventure all star battle R into the topic of anime video games is disappointing. That game was better than the PS3 version.

“Don’t touch an input for 5 seconds” lmao

I didn't realize GameMill had the JJK license- Oh, this was Bamco? Yeah, sounds about right.

Would be intrigued to hear more about this game you say you’re making

The fact that a Modern Game Adaption of an Anime from the 70s (UFO Robot Grendizer) has more love put into it than a Video Game Adaption of a Modern Anime Hit should really speaks bounds of Bandais Capabilities in adapting Anime as Video Games.

I mean at least they tried something new. It was a risky step. I just miss the 1v1 in these days. They should take more time to create a solid Anime-Game. But time-pressure is a big thing nowadays. But hey if the salesman sells none cares.. Just don't buy any shit.

Hey Matty! Can you do a retro rebound on the 2015 Mad Max video game. Made by Avalanche Studios and published by WB. I think that game is a lost gem and deserves a sequel or reboot.

Got the game just a few hours ago around $40, honestly looking for a lower but I went for it because I'm honestly waiting for this game. I could get past its Title Screen and Story Mode if the Gameplay itself is where it shines, but even then the Gameplay is just clunky. I just hope they revamp the gameplay to be much faster and with more respawn/life in each team and I think it can redeem itself. 3.5/10 for me, still fun, lacks story content and didn't compensate for the gameplay which is what I was looking for the in the first place.

I really don’t comment often, but this game really was trying to scratch my itch of Final Fantasy Dissidia on the PSP. As a fan of both JJK and FF. I’m also really disappointed in the lack of care, and polish. It would’ve been so incredible if this game got the treatment from Dissidia. @Matt, would you please consider looking at reviewing Dissidia? I think it’s a great example of what JJK was trying to be, and where anime fighters really should try to emulate. Love the content. Always look forward to your insight! Anyone else feel the same? Love to chat!

Whoa, didn't expect the lore drop of Matty making a game! Good luck man, I hope you promote it so I can check it out.

As disappointed as I am with Storm Connections, looking at how fans of JJK, One Piece and Bleach are being treated really puts things into perspective.

Shout out to the 2d anime fighters, we we need more budokai 3s & yuyu hakusho dark tournaments

Honestly if it was like storm 4 had good combat decent polish I think we all would have been happy. But they couldn't even do that much. They should have the guys that work on Tekken make the anime games cuz danm almost all after storm 4 have been dumpster fires

7:04 There is no way people who actually play video games signed off on this and said “yeah put in the portrait and dialogue box that takes up almost a 1/5 of the entire screen alone.”

Man why anime games almost always have to be fighting games?

Still waiting for a formal apology and a refund. Not only did Bandai Namco had the gall of charging $60 for clearly an unfinished game, they even had the audacity to announce a paid DLC at the end of the launch trailer. Hell, even the mobile JJK game is even better than this pile of dog shit.

100% agree with everything said here except for the fact I think all the characters felt unique and different to play, even the difference between yuji and maki is impressive given how they’re both melee only characters.

The selection screen looks like a blu- ray menu 😂😂😂

I agree 100% you would think after playing this game that the anime didn’t do well enough to get a proper game.

A good popular anime that didn't get a good video game adaptation. Pretty soon it'll be forgotten, when Sparking Zero comes out.

The update today did it justice!!!

I agree with what u mentioned about a game that should’ve received the Ultimate Ninja Storm treatment rather than demon slayer. JJK or Bleach would have been great.

I just want more anime games that aren't based on some shonen anime that I will never understand the popularity of among adults who aren't remotely the target audience.

The game is supposed to be jjk version of j stars and I loved j stars so this game was a dream come true especially when your winning😭😭😭

Guys it’s only been out for not very long so yeah just wait and the game might get better😅

They probably didn’t have a huge budget to do it just be glad we have a game and hope we get a better one later when they have a better budget and more experience with the game . Also jjk honestly doesn’t have many places to really explore but i do think the game would’ve been better in open world

Anime games nowdays? isn't it every single anime game forever? Give us a Dragon Ball that starts in chapter 1 of Dragon Ball, not Raditz>vegeta>frieza>cell>buu repeat repeat repeat

Thank you so much for saying exactly how I’ve felt about these fucking anime games since forever. Basically every anime game after dragonball z buokai 3. Decent anime games are so far and few between. JJK being one of my favorite mangas to read right now. God it hurts that this game looks like it does. I won’t even consider playing it. Which sucks honestly lol

Have you read the manga The culling game are is the biggest and most actionpacked arc in the whole series

Its funny how they could've made the game like granblue fantasy relink and it would've worked perfectly in my opinion

Fo sho, $60 is way too much for this 💩

I can’t lie i enjoy this game and the 2 v 2 action does feel unique from other arena fighters

I have no any problem with this menu screen, I concern the gameplay rather than the menu😂

Even on the commercials it was obvious JJK game was gonna be ass.

Jjk cursed clash is supposed to be getting the first arc of season 2 as dlc and I do believe that we might get shibuya as dlc give the fire arrow move that sukuna uses

I'm so tired of games having good or interesting ideas with garbage execution

Retro, you should play Naruto Shippuden: Dragon Blade Chronicles for the Wii.

Its not lazynes, a lot of these games are made by a very few handful of people with shoe string budgets ontop of having ridiculous turn around times. something like ninja storm 4 which was an entry to an already beloved series and IP had a smaller budget than Yooka Laylee. bandai namco generally do not fund these games with enough resources unless they pre established or already well performing IP. obviously this doesnt justify why the game is bad, a bad game is a bad game regardless of why, but i think its shortsighted to say its lazyness from a DEV side as oppose to greedy publishers who want maximize profits by creating low cost games with a potential high sales ceiling thanks to the IP. this video is old so im not sure if you will see this but i felt like i had to mention especially in the case of Byking who really are a ridiculously small team.

The fact that u called Nue a Hawk, proves u dont know about jjk 😂

There are some points I agree with in this vid, especially the production quality…. But completely flubbed the gameplay, the most important part. Of course the game is gonna feel boring if you just spam square, that’s why you can… not spam square. Theres other attacks that generate cursed energy way quicker. My brother in Christ you press the buttons. And there’s multiple combos you can do to lead into curse techniques. You also failed to mention there’s a parry mechanic and pretty much completely ignored the 2v2 aspect and how important teamwork is and how fun it is with friends.

Bro this game is meant for constantly losing it so unbalanced especially when you get jumped by your own teammates and the enemy team in pvp plus it’s laggy as hell

If only it was like the first two storm game this game would have been awesome

i like the 2000 dvd main menu

Would’ve been a perfectly acceptable FREE game-but this for $60 is painful.

Love these reviews

I think damaging with curse technique but you know what they could’ve done is like you know how you have to use a finisher to defeat someone in kingdom hearts do the same thing where you have have to use a curse technique to defeat someone

Me after playing for 30 mins - nah I'd refund

i dont understand how u can fumble translating a power system as deep and technical as JJK. Its just not what i thought it couldve been its just...not tight. to me the absolute pinnacle of power system to video game format was Budokai 3 only think i didnt like was how powerful the later characters like SS5 and Kid Buu were in comparisom to some of the fan favorite characters like Picollo and Ultimate Gohan. i hate Cut Scene Special moves...i want to get lucky and hit a black flash not do a grab move and go into a scene for scene replay of the anime. i dont understand how a character i absolutely loved like Hanami doesnt really have melee combos. he doesnt feel that powerful to me. and then HE CANT OPEN A DOMAIN. WHY it looked so fking fire before Gojo Hallowed Purpled his ass. i just dont get it. its like they dont care about it being a fun easy to play hard to master style fighting game they care more about selling a less than mediocre cash grab. i wish i couldve got a refund i preordered this trash. mahito feela stupid af the only thing i can actually save i like about it is Todo's boogie woogie. the other curse techniques shouldve of felt as technical and thats may be a stretch. the combos couldve been deeper. the curse techniques and domains couldve felt more manual. like you're actually control the fighting. not....Yuta going into a replay of a scene from the movie. they have an actual JJK flow chart explaining cursed energy.

It’s bad, anime games are mediocre, but fans don’t like to admit it. From arena fighters to busted mediocre RPGs. I wanna like sword art online for its concept but I can’t cuz I constantly have to play as overpowered kirito or if I do get to create a character like in fatal bullet the story still centers around kirito 🙄 like bro, the show sucks as is can the game at least be good? No cuz Bandai says nah “we don’t wanna put effort”. As for every other anime game they’re either iterations of dynasty warriors or arena fighters 🙄 lazy is a perfect word for these projects.

I guess you’ve never played a gundam versus game

Bro said coochi-socky

DVD menu lookin ah

They literally took half of ninja storm and half of eyes of heaven and called it a day 😂

Storm connections and now jjk bandai wtf

God damn I hope the hunter hunter game is good..

Thank you for helping me decide to not buy this

Well it tells you right on the box that the game is cursed.

IF IT WAS MADE BY UBISOFT, IT WOULDVE BEEN WAAAAAY BETTER NOT DANG BANDI NAMCO, BUT CHANGE BYKING TO THE CREATORS OF FINAL FANTASY AND NOT MAKE IT A ARENA FIGHTING GAME MAKE IT LIKE FINAL FANTASY BUT JJK AND MORE CUTSENCES

If the anime weren't gatekeepers that only talked cared about one piece, naruto, and dragonball...the game wouldve come out better.

These games are copy and paste with Bandai, it’s nothing new with these anime games from them

JJK deserves so much more. Bandai Namco either hits outta park or sucks. Tekken 8 is great. Hope dbz sparking zero is good

Awesome review, as always. This game's quality reminds me of Black Clover Quartet Knights; good concept, poor execution.

Let’s hope the Hunter Hunter game will be good (it won’t)

Your not wrong. Please continue calling out bandai's CRAPPY work. We have been getting rubbish for too long now. After naruto ultimate ninja storm 1 and 2 we have gotten rinse and repeat. And other anime titles have the same or worse level of effort. We need to scream and them and stop buying these until they can be bothered to put effort into these.

The demon slayer game was pretty fun

its a 2 vs 2 pvp game..

I would rather play ultimate tenkaichi than play this game

One thing i disagree with is that i think more games should use the source material from the shows/ music . Demon slayer did a greay job as they did not release a dlc pack to buy the music. Byking are great at making characters feel unique and actual play different . Which is nicw compared to other anime fighters. But the budget for this game is tiny and that shows for the graphics and story mode! But after playing for a week the combat its not perfect but it has grew on me and playing online 2vs2 it actual works pretty well and the servers are decent. You can actual beat 2 ( players ) on your own especially when you learn a character. The things i would like to fix is the knock down speed and make it so you can chain more combos with certain characters. Overall i am disappointed seeing as this mamga/show being as big as it is should of deserved a better game or a bigger budget. I feel like spike used to be the golden child but now its CC2 and everyone else gets the sloppy seconds of what ever left from the anime budget.

Man I saw that first trailer and was like “This looks awful already” it didn’t even look worth it to begin with

Lmao i remember people in comments defending this. "IT LOOKS AMAZING. " And blaming toxicity. Blah blah blah. This game looks like something for your mobile.

It was better than Suicide Squad.

I play several online matches, still have fun

Save the anime gaming society, dragon ball sparking zero

Weebery is taking a toll on Matty.

Boycott and we all will get change

Barely a mobile game

I wished you'd given more suggestions of what you wanted to see rather than just what you didnt like. You need to give these developers some ideas honestly

This game shouldve been like fighterz. Just give the rights to arcsys and theyll make this 100 times better

JJK could’ve got the Sparkling 0 or Kakarot treatment. High budget gameplay cinematic and effects, beautiful cutscenes, detailed and big scaled arenas. Clean character models and good gameplay combo mechanics. JJK is arguably the biggest anime airing right now now that AoT is finished. There was no reason we got a OPM A Hero Nobody Knows level of production quality. Is just pathetic that devs think this is a worthy product not only for the series, but to ignorantly charge full price. A $60 game with no effort to make it great. Like “ok” was the bar they settled at. Now when the game didn’t do well people think it’s the IP, not the shitty product they put out

Demon slayer game is way better JJk game is very sad

I just wanted to play as Yuta, I bought it played 2 games and hated it. Luckily I got a refund on the Xbox store. I also agree with the take on S1 and S2.

Another shallow anime 3D fighter ugh 😢

I can see people having some fun with this, but overall yeah it’s disappointing. The gameplay doesn’t feel very smooth and the presentation is severely lacking compared to other anime games. It’s nice that they tried something different but it just didn’t work out well

Why are they always fighting games?

Best implemented character is Todo as it can really make the combat crazy when someone else is sakuna .

I was sad when I found out JJK was being made by the MH:OJ devs. I was extremely disappointed in the MH:OJ games. I thought both really did not feel well to play, but I thought the second one was a little better. After seeing reviews and what friends have been saying about JJK, I am glad I didn't end up getting it. Lol

I recommend the player don’t give up too early for this game, you can enjoy the game when you familiar the move set and technique

this literally looks like a ps2 game

You know when matty gets fed up with half ass anime fighting games. Things fina get real lol i love JJk but felt like they didnt put enough love & budget into the game and it was they're first one too. Damn 🙄😩 not worth the full price right now

Sparking zero plz hurry and change yo name to yo roots as dbz Budokai Tenkaichi 4 instead of this SPARKING ZERO SHI**😂😂😂😂😢😢😢🎉🎉🎉

I already knew this would be shit it’s a modern anime arena fighter…. They always are. Most anime games are shit now

Presentation and design wise, this game is very poor. The unlockables are super lame too. But, imo, the game is actually really fun to play. I feel like if anything, that's the only thing it has really going for it. I was expecting a lot more for a JJK game though. It should've been a lot better.

Don't know what he expected, it's Bandai Namco. They're notorious for being cheap. They don't shell out jack for anything but Tekken or Dragon Ball. Even then they try to monetize the hell out of them. Bamco do better? Not holding my breath.
