In 2005, Capcom teamed up with developer Cavia to create a foul-mouthed brawler that offered a surprising amount of depth. The Game Informer crew cautiously reenters this world and are surprised by how "awesome" it is. We gave this game a 5 out of 10 back in the day, criticizing its use of language and bare-bones combat. Today, we're more amused by it, and are quite smitten with the recruiting system, which allows the player to add almost anyone as a teammate.

Join us for this brief look, and make sure you stick around for the second game, which is one of Ubisoft's strangest licensed games. We'll be back with another episode in just seven days!
