If you are a fan of fighting games and you own a PlayStation, you have over 40 fighting games to choose from. That’s not to say all of those fighting games are good. Some are worth playing and some are better off not being played. Which one of those categories does Evil Zone fall into?

There are nine fighters to choose from but there are supposed to be ten fighters in the game. The tenth fighter is probably the fighter all the other fighters want to take out which is covered in the story mode. Otherwise, you can do a single battle where you can alter some of the rules and a survival mode and that’s it. This is a fighting game on a home console. There should have been more modes than this.

The difficulty of the game starts fair. Once you get to the fourth opponent, they have an unblockable attack that you can’t avoid. So the difficulty starts fair then puts you in a fight with an attack you can’t block.

Even though this is a fighting game, this is one fighting game that doesn’t use all the face buttons on the PlayStation controller. One of the face buttons is attack and one of the buttons is block. The two other face buttons have no function. You go up to your opponent and repeatedly mash the attack button.

The story of the game is that an evil being was sent to a Evil Zone but that doesn’t mean everyone is safe from this evil being. Everyone won’t be safe from this evil being until he is destroyed so fighters from different worlds are going to be fighting each other to determine who will destroy this evil being. Every fighter has their motivation for being the one to destroy this evil being.

The graphics are fine for PlayStation standards. All the fighters look different and the environments change up so the graphics are average. The same goes for the sound. The sounds are fine and the music is fine. Nothing is great but nothing requires you to hit the mute button. So the sound is average.

There is no replayability once you beat the game unless you want to start some fights where you can alter some of the options in a fight. There is no reason to play this game. So there is no replayability.

The gameplay is not fun and the difficulty is not fair. The controls suck because you attack by running up to your opponent and repeatedly hitting the attack button. The story makes sense and sounds interesting. The graphics and sound are average. So I give Evil Zone on the PlayStation 3 out of 10. Other fighting games on the PlayStation are much more enjoyable to play so there is no reason to play this game.
