Yeah i bough it on day one and still own that copy to this day. I liked it at that time then when i realized it down the line... it really was a bad game XD. Yet memorable because of that damn commercial XD
I had always wanted to play this game back before I had gotten a PS2 but by the time I did get one I had started to hear things and never picked it up. Not a big fan of the art style though, looks to me like they took a big bucket of FinalFantasy/Kingdom Hearts (yes, I know that game hadn't come out yet) paint and dumped it all over a Streets of Rage game. I never cared for the super spiky haired Japanese styles.
