NOT SUPER SMASH Brothers, But Really really Good

Let's get this out of the way. It is no super smash brothers. There are no really cool mini-games. There are no adventure modes for each character. Now the good side. They have done a fine job with this game. It is wonderful. You begin with unlocked shrek, donkey, fiona, ogre fiona, prince charming, black knight, puss in boots, gingy, and pinochio. Then there an equal amount of characters to unlock. You also begin the game with 6-7 levels to fight on. Now here is where Shrek whoops up on smash brothers: The environments are highly interactive. You will cut tables in half, smash down walls ect. Most of teh environment you can also pick up and use. Slamming someone with a slab of meat in the chef's kitchen is just great. All of the chracters have a special slam ability that is way fun. For example, pinochio grows huge nose and begins poking the hebejebies out of everyone, Shrek does a nasty green toot, and Puss gets on all fours and runs around working people over like a rabid tiger. All in all I was skeptical coming into this game, but was very impressed with the end product. THis is a game that both myself and my 2 five year olds love.

One of the Greatest from Activision!

This game is very fun. I found it really easy to just pick up and play without having to read the directions. The controls are easy to get the hang of. O.k. here we go. Shrek Super Slam is a great game from Activision. You fight the other player(s) to use your special slam on them in the arena. There's lots of characters to play as(20). Here are a few of my favorites: Puss in Boots, Prince Charming, G-Nome, and Humpty Dumpty. The levels are awesome too. My favorites are: The Poison Apple, Gingerbread Hizzle, and Beanstalk Park. There is story mode where you fight different characters in 10 levels. The story is Shrek and his friends are going over to Donkey's house to watch Survivor: Sherwood Forest and the Dronkey's are still awake creating chaos, to get them to sleep, Shrek and his pals take turns fighting to get the dronkey's to sleep. There's also challenge mode. You do challenges, tournaments, and bonuses, to unlcok characters, arenas, and costumes. There's also melee, where you and computer players or friends team up or have a free-for-all in arenas. Training is just to tell you how to play the game and the basic controls. I didn't do it. Multiplayer is more fun then solo. You can do melee or king of the hill. Melee is great, but king of the hill, stupid. Overall, I would give this an A- for fun game.

This is a great game. To start off the review, I'd just like to say that this game probably has the most unlockable players, arenas, and other stuff out of all the video games out there. Okay, basicly, here's how you win.

Story Mode: You'll play through several levels of combat to win story mode.

Melee: This is where it gets fun. Grab three of your friends and battle, or by yourself against the computer.

Mega Challenges: Play these mini games to unlock players and arenas.

Training Mode: Fine tune your skills against a non-moving computer opponent.

I totally agree with the previous reviewer. This game is NOT Super Smash Bros., but is still greatly fun! The levels, as the previous reviewer said, are a lot better than SSBM, each one having their own unique items and such. And, you can throw a lot of parts of the level. For example, one level is inside the Poison Apple from Shrek 2. There is a billiard table that you can break in half. Then, you can toss the halves of it at your opponents. One thing I DON'T like about this game is that it has a few glitches. One that me and my brothers discovered is that when you are Fiona (not ogre), it sometimes makes you unable to move for no reason. You can still fight, but you can't move. We have no idea WHY this happens, but it happens from time to time. Another glitch happens when you use your shield to bounce an item that someone threw at you back. My brother threw an item at me, then I bounced it back at him using my shield, then he did the same, and so on, until he finally put up his shield too late and the item hit him, giving me a Slam point. This wouldn't be a glitch if I had actually DONE a slam, but I hadn't, and the object of the game is to GET Slam points by USING YOUR SLAM ATTACK, NOT BY BOUNCING OBJECTS BACK AT THE THROWER MULTIPLE TIMES!!!! Still, all in all, this is a GREEAAAATT game! Me and my brothers LOVE it, and I highly reccommend it!

Lots of Laughs

My friends and I love to battle it out in this game. We laugh so much. It's fun to try all the characters. The single player story line is cute and unlocks some fun stuff. There are lots of things to do, my only complaint is that I wish more of it was multi-player. This is definitely a game that is more fun played with friends.

Fun and safe

considering all the adult content seeping into video games these days, this game is good clean fun - lots of humorous Shrek antics and lots of fun for kids to battle with their friends - not too hard for parents to pick up either. tons of characters to unlock -

A lot of fun, but room for improvement....

Ok, so lets get the bad away shall we? First of all I found this game frustrating because it was hard to hit the opponent because they always block your attack. You are limited to the number of moves your character can make (including incredibly cool combos), yet, still, i dont like the limitation. The objective of the game is just plain stupid. Oh ok, lets hit the opponent so we can do our special slam on them. thats how u get points in order to win. you cannot knock your opponent over the ledge, unless in story or mega challenge mode (that is only sometimes). The graphics are ok but i guess activision and the others couldve made a better job of that. Also, you cannot change the timed limit of two minutes! They couldve done something like number of slams to win, or change the time to your own need! I felt like my brother and i needed that.

Heres the good i found in this game:
there are tons of chracters (20)
there are 20 levels to play on
you can destroy the whole playing field if you want.
you can throw and use items
you can also throw players into other players
some chracters special moves are cool
there is story, mega challenge mode, training, and melee to unlock more characters, costumes, and arenas

overall:
I believe this game is really fun, especially if you have friends over and you can team up or have a free for all. Though the graphics are not that great, and have some minor flaws, i think you should definitly buy this game. But just to be sure, rent it first and see if you agree with me or not.
I hope this review helps!

Shrek Super Awesome

Shrek SuperSlam is a really good melee brawler, especially when you have 3 other friends duking it out with you. It seems like it might appeal more to kids, but I believe anyone can enjoy it, from age 8 to 108.

I just wanted to make sure nobody got lead astray buy this guy. You CAN change the times limit. Go to Melee, choose your characters, then, when you get to the arena selection screen, press square to chenge time limit, Slam options, and other things.

A wrestling game with a different theme

Shrek Superslam is a pretty decent game, for a wrestling game. (Note: I am not a fan of wrestling games, or sports games in general) It's much more entertaining than most wrestling games, each character has it's signature move and they are all hilarious to watch. The story mode features little mini-stories that set up a fight between two characters, and so far they've all been very funny. (haven't gotten far, yet) The training mode was a huge help in learning the combos. My biggest complaint is with the four player mode. The camera moves in weird ways, and it's very difficult to track where your character is in relation to the other characters.

All in all, if you have young kids that like wrestling games, this would probably be a good purchase. Otherwise, I think you can do much better.
