And that is completely and utterly unacceptable. Every combo in the game is Square->Square->Square->Coin Flip. The only difference I have noticed at all are different special attacks (the right stick ones, the ones you use 2-5 of in a match) and some different attack animations while you spam Square/Triangle. EVERY CHARACTER FUNCTIONS EXACTLY THE SAME! It's not that they're "a bit similar" or "vaguely reminiscent" of each other, they are identical. Do you want to know the worst part? Ok, I'll tell you. You can press up or down on the right stick for a flashy special move, and do transformations with L2, and that's the entire game. Press square for blockable energy blasts, press triangle for a block breaking energy blast. But, apparently there's some ranged combat in this game, you say? Well yeah, and it goes EXACTLY THE SAME as melee combat, except you lose the somewhat useful ability to get behind an opponent to avoid the coin flip. If you succeeded: CONGRATULATIONS! Press the corresponding key 4 more times. Coin flip, press either Square or Triangle. If blocked press triangle to break block, then press square three times. Let me sum up gameplay for you, and I am NOT oversimplifying, I'm spelling it out for those who haven't bought the game, and I hope to dissuade them from ever buying the game.
#Its a wonderful life skin
What I did NOT expect was a game where literally any skin could be thrown on the character, as everyone fights exactly the same.

I read IGN's review expecting stellar gameplay that was perhaps a little too similar between characters. I'm not even kidding, it is nearly complete random chance. Combat literally boils down to a coin flip every 10-15 seconds.
#Its a wonderful life series
Looking for something to fill the void and filled with fond memories from the Budokai series I bought Ultimate Tenkaichi, for $60.

#Its a wonderful life ps3
I was expecting something in the same vein as DBZ Budokai 3 or Budokai Tenkaichi 2, or Budockai Tenkaichi 3, all of which I have enjoyed, all of which I am now unable to play (PS2 broke, PS3 slim not reverse compatible, Wii stolen).
