Mini Review: Perfection or death

Balancing the difficulty of a video game has always been a hard thing to do. NES games from this era have always been tough but this is a game that expects perfection. Every vehicle section requires the player to learn every move they need to do and apply it without any mistakes. Keeping up with what they expect me to do isn't something that seems fun to me. The sidescrolling beat em up parts are a breath of fresh air compared to the rest of it. Other than the rat race level none of them are overly difficult. Fighting enemies is simple but fun with a few nice boss combos that feel awesome when you pull them off. Plus when I actually beat one of the driving levels it felt great thanks to how much time it requires to figure them out. But that doesn't redeem it at all since getting to that point was just pure frustration. This game is not worth playing unless you have a ton of patience.
