In these maps you’ll add to stats, unlock abilities and add enhancements for the character that you choose. While fighting normal enemies in the stages of story mode you’ll earn soul points that you can spend in character maps. The game’s character leveling system is also nicely structured. Unfortunately many of the smaller bosses are weak to the same exploit - simply mash your standard attacks when they’re down, timing them so that they’ll hit at the exact time they stand. Bosses of varying sizes, shapes and backgrounds come straight out of the anime to mix up the action for you. The boss battles provided a stiff challenge. There are a few things to break up the slashing, though. Slashing baddies looks and feels great at first, but when that’s all you do, it starts to wear on you. Some of them have varied types of attacks, like Ichigo’s sword, or Ishida’s bow and arrow, but that wasn’t enough to keep things fresh with all of the enemy mowing. I quickly fell into a rut of starting a new stage with a new character, mashing attack buttons to progress, fighting a boss, and then repeating. This title is packed with several playable characters straight out of the anime. Mowing through countless masses of enemies is just as fun in this game as it is in any other of its type. You’ll jam on face buttons to perform weapon attacks and combos, and work up meters to blast out special attacks. The gameplay is something that feels a lot like a Dynasty Warriors game, and that’s a good thing. It only took about 5 or 6 missions before I was mashing the button to skip the narration to get to the gameplay. Bleach: Soul Resurreccion makes no apologies and pushes further ahead in each Story Mode section, hitting you with text and narration each time. If you’re not you’re going to get blasted with several paragraphs of Spanish-tinged proper nouns that will leave you scratching your head. This game assumes that you’re current on the anime. The rest of the story? I was totally lost from the very first story section in Story Mode. I know just enough to know who the game characters are and I know just enough to appreciate the game’s high-end graphics. I watched about a season of this hugely popular manga-turned-anime, which aired on Cartoon Network. To be fair, I know a small bit about the Bleach anime. But what if you don’t know squat about the Bleach anime?īleach: Soul Resurreccion (PlayStation 3) There’s some solid gameplay and lovely art here. Soul Resurreccion is one part anime license and another part one of those 1-vs-100 action-adventures, something like the Dynasty Warriors series of games. I have mashed those buttons for a couple of days now for this review. I blame Bleach: Soul Resurreccion, a new cut-’em-up that requires some serious button mashing. My right hand in particular is a numb, unresponsive mass of flesh and bone that refuses to do anything I tell it to.
