Until it gets online multiplayer and custom maps its just going to be boring unless you have someone that can frequently sacrifice time to come over, sit down and play it with you but i can definitely see the potential, if you have a controller. Playing on a keyboard is depressing. Would recommend on a sale.

Black & White Bushido a 2D Fighting game with nice artistic style in black and white which defines the game , when in Dark places your character would be in white and when in lit spaces you'd be in black the only other color is red which is blood from you or your slain enemies , gameplay is a martial arts based, you can play against AI controlled bots, or you can play local multiplayer which is more fun , you can connect for controllers or more to one pc and play , it's great fun and makes me wish it had online co op. you are split in 2 teams , the shadow team and the light team Shadow team can hide in plain sight in dark areas, and light team can hide in plain sight in lit areas, and both can place mines for their enemies , it's a whole lot of fun , there are challenges to complete, they start from very easy to hard , like killing enemies from behind and killing him mid air , keeps gameplay interesting and gets you more xp to unlock new moves and throwables. graphics are great although very simplistic , it looks gorgeous, nice eastern music for soundtrack also.
