Replay – Beat Down: Fists Of Vengeance
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!
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
