O my god...this game stinks!
If you want a fun, involved, beautiful fighter, go with DOA3. This game is NOT intended for a US market, and I don't know how it got here. The story is based around a style of Asian theater where the actors used to actually hurt each other on stage, all for the name of entertainment.
This game has horrible graphics, horrible game play. Here let me do you a favor, pick any term you would use to describe a game and put it on the blank line:

This game has horrible __________.

Thanks,

Whoever approved this game to be "acceptable" for Xbox/Microsoft standards should be FIRED!!!...

This game is just absolutely horrendous and needs to just be removed from the shelves through a massive recall, pilled up in the backyard of the person who approved this game for sale, and burnt in the name of all that's wrong with the world today. What's bad about this game?? The question should be, "What's good about it?"....nothing, and I mean nothing. The DVD disc could be used as a coaster for drinks I suppose...but that's the only good thing I can think of. I would have chosen "no stars" for this piece of flaming poo....but I'm forced to choose 1 star. Oh well, nobody's perfect I guess.

Above all, I feel pity for those that were forced to work on such an abomination.

Good title, terrible Game

I lost interest after the first game, i gave it the benefit of a doubt, and i was right about first impressions, the game is very outdated, and the graphics and performance features were below my expectations, reminded me of my atari days.

(...) WORST GAME EVER FOR ANY CONSOLE

Man, this game is the worst game I had ever played. EVerything is wrong about this game. THe controls are aweful, TRhe graphics are outdated, the moves (...), the caractors look bad, the fighting is terrible. When I first rented this game because I am a avid game of fighting, after the first match, I returned it to blockbuster. I HAVE NEVER PLAYED SUCH A FAILURE!!(...). This game is abysmal. This game sholud have never been released because it is so(...) aweful. (...)

You'll be harder pressed to find a waste of (money) than this

Kabuki Warrors is not a good game. And in all honesty, that is an understatement. The game should have never been released. As you've read from the Editors review, it is set in old japan, with a list of characters and "exciting" moves. The editors comments are taking some substantial liberties. The backdrops of the game are simple and bland, with very little effort being made to make them unique or varied. The characters look like half-finished dolls, and move as if they were being animated by an amatuer puppeter. These issues could have been acceptable if the gameplay was excellent, but unfortunetly that is not the case.

A player can easily master the repeative gameplay, which only involves guarding and starting silly dances to get your popularity meter up. Once this has maxed out, the player can cause an uninspired special move that is extremely anti-climatic.

Please save your money and/or your child's happiness by avoiding this game. You are better served ordering another fighting game that is available for the system.

A whole lot of lying going on...

First, I loved the concept and the game had some nice graphics (the textures and animations were really nice) It also was a really interesting concept (fighting game that isn't based on a bunch of guys and gals out to rule the world somehow by beating each other up). Unfortunately, the developers or producers were REALLY creative with the truth.
First, there is nothing even close to 24 characters. There are 12 and there is no way to unlock more. If you hold down the trigger, you get to choose different colors of clothing.
Second, the game states that each character has his or her own special power. Of the 12 characters, only 9 have special powers (one of those being invisibility that the computer can see through).
Third, I beat the single player in about 20 minutes and didn't lose once.
The only reason why I gave this game 2 stars was because it's cheap at Fry's ($$$) and I like kicking the heck out of my brother on it.

I actually liked this game--not much to it though

Everybody seems to really hate this game, but it was the first one I got for the XBox and I actually had fun playing it. Maybe its because I'm such a Samurai junkie. True, its not very involved and probably only worth [less]. Gameplay is pretty simple...there are a couple of maneuvers but it mostly boils down to button-mashing. The graphics are neat in an offbeat kind-of-way, but definitely not what the XBox was designed for. I'm not very familiar with gaming systems, the XBox is my first since the Atari 2600 I had when I was 12...but I think this game is probably compatible to something from 5-6 years ago. Absolutely NOT worth buying if you don't have some obsession with Samurai dueling it out...its cool to a point, but nothing to write home about.

Worst Game Ever

This game is not worth renting, nor is it worth using your electricity to play it if you happened to get this for free. Save your money and get DOA3. I've seen better graphics on Atari. In all regards this game is HORRIBLE. (...)

How on earth did this game get out the door? Anybody who worked on this game would be ill-advised to list it on their resume.

I rented it out of morbid curiosity. I had more fun picking the dingleberries off my dog's rear end than playing this game.

Do not waste your precious time with this - even if somebody gives it to you for free.

Kabuki Warriors.

Got any biscuits for sale in there? Took me four years to read the bible.
