Last year I ordered this game for £40 to then find out it had been delayed for a year, A YEAR. So the time finally came to pre-order and to my surprise for £18 [practically]. My shock arrival of it's appearance the day of it's release when I didn't pay for first class! So, anyway onto the review.If you don't have XBL don't buy this game.Anarchy Reigns is an Arcade Brawler with an 'all-star' cast. Created by SEGA and Platinum Games - Bayonetta makes an appearance as limited edition DLC, aswell as 2 extra modes on top of the 10. The game plays extremely well, the multiplayer and overall gameplay is easy to grasp, yet hard enough to separate the long time gamers from the new buyers.

Great game! I had been waiting for this game for a while but it got slagged off by a lot of the big review sites so i gave it a miss. Then the price dropped to 14 quid so i though why not, i would have paid £40 for this baby its a great game. Single story is okay but the real fun is in multiplayer, there are about 10 different modes which hold enough variety to feel unique and offer their own type of fun. There are about 18 characters and they each have their own unique flavor so never feel samey which is a good thing.Also a lot of reviewer sites must not have played the game long because they all miss this vital point, you can play all of the multiplayer modes alone with CPU bots.

So here at last is Anarchy Reigns after it has been a staple for Japanese X-Box gamers...all three of them. Essentially this game is for all you online people who like to cuss at each other and who drop out when you are getting gubbed.I on the other hand bought this for the single player aspect...I know exactly what you are thinking here...but trust me it plays like a cross between 'Fist of the North Star' and 'Final Fight' with touches of 'Streets of Rage' thrown in. Yes story mode acts as a tutorial to the main online mode but there are hours of fun to be had throwing buses(!!) at oncoming goons who helpfully arrive in nice managable groups of cannon / fist fodder. You will laugh.

I have read alot of reviews on this and liking to try different things I took a chance. If you, like me, want a different take on multiplayer then get this. It is totally different to anything else out there and for less than £20 you can't go wrong. It isn't as deep as street fighter but it isn't trying to be. It can however put you into a 16 player brawl that will make you wonder who is hitting, what with and why you are 20 feet in the air after being smacked with a bus. The single player is insane, profane nonsense and is just training for the online but is a good distraction nonetheless. It is mp where it shines though. If you want a different online fighter but with the amount of players as a shooter then get it,

When this game dropped through my letter box, I was ecstatic. I had heard spectacular reviews online from people who had imported the Japanese version, called Max Anarchy, and heard from that it was getting a European release under its new title. When I played it finally, I was perfectly pleased. The characters, great, the story, to be honest a bit odd and occasionally convoluted but still motivating enough to make you want the play the two campaigns to completion. The controls are much simpler than your average fighting game, so the pick up and play ability of this game makes it so easy to become addicted. With a nice variety of enemies and locations, every level feels different but they all tie together.

This is a perfect example how third person beat-em-ups should be made. Largely ridiculous action. It's a pity this title could not come out sooner worldwide! I really hope Platinum Games develop more titles like this in the future, or even a sequel. It's highly addictive once you get into the swing of it. Only major issue is that the story-mode needs to be re-played too much to unlock everything, not to say that it's not enjoyable, but I'd rather there were separate unlockable missions that weren't accessible through a hub-world. The hub-world is nice though, it keeps the game moving.Oh and I'd like to add that the soundtrack and loading times are fantastic!

Aim of the game here is, KILL EVERYTHING.I don't usually like games where you just run around beating everything into a bloodied pulp...But this is fun..Story mode:You get to play as one of 2 characters with the aim of killing all gang members etc. Whilst avoiding the runaway trucks and things that are loose in the city.There are highlighted mission pointers that give you options to complete certain tasks, and numerous bosses etc to defeat.This game is supposed to be much better online..... I wouldn't know, as i don't use xbox live, so can't experience it.But everyone I know that has played it, and most online reviews think its best played via XBL.

I've always been a fan of Platinum games, and this game is definitely worthy of their roster of great games.The game is not as deep as other titles, but the game is built around quick fun with a large variety of game modes.As long as you have friends to play with(or don't mind playing with strangers online) and like the beat 'em up genre of games(Like Devil May Cry and Bayonetta) then you will likely find the game very enjoyable.It is perhaps not as well polished as some of Platinum games other games, for instance, it's single player is only passable, but it's still a blast.

Despite the 1 year delay, I was very much looking forward to this game. It seemed that the single player campaign was very short unfortunately, although I had a great time beating the 2 campaigns available.Despite the matchmaking taking a considerably long time in my experience, the online multilayer is very solid gameplay and great fun and with a variety of characters with different game play styles and abilities, similar to a fighting game.It's defiantly a run for your money, even if the online is deserted soon enough, there is still an option to play with bots!

It may seem obvious but the single player on this game is paper thin, a lot of people are finding this out once purchased and are berating the game for it( that includes some high profile reviewers :/ ). As MP goes its a riot out of the box with a very steep learning curve. It may look like button mashing, however this hides a deep and rewarding fighting game, think more Powerstone than Street Fighter. Some dodgy connections aside this is great fun. Just be prepared for a whupping until you get better.

Thankfully Sega continue to let Platinum create viciously cool and superbly thought out titles. Anarchy reigns keeps up a suprisinng consistency of design quality. Studio trademark hyper violence paired with well forged irony and encased in a toughened shell of playability.Hopefully the publisher wil let these fellows revive a couple of old franchises in the same way they dealt with MGS Rev.Did this go platinum? (heh heh)

This game is a fun brawler/beat em up, that doesn't take itself too seriously, the graphics are good, not great, the gameplay is fast but can be repetitive but its DEFINITELY worth £18!

Not a very good game, that's my opinion story terrible, combat bland and repetitive, if you buy this game only buy for action or to play multi player, this is only my opinion

Bonkers characters, mad game play, funky music and Bayonetta too, at last we have this game in Europe, and not cost a load, it's not an easy game, but great fun.

Quick arrival, great game would recommend to anyone who is a fan of beat em' ups but stay away if you aren't because game play can sometimes be repetitive
