Classic Game Room reviews SWORD of the BERSERK for Dreamcast

Classic Game Room season 1 - 3/31/2000

It's not every day that you get to bludgeon people with an 8 foot sword and watch their blood spray 20 feet into the air. It's also not every day that mutant plant people come after you and try to rip you in half with tentacles and gouge out your eyes.. and then you get to cut them in half and mash your sword into their head!

You get the idea. This is the perfect game for sociopaths who don't want to leave their couch.

Game Room reviewed Atari, NES, Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Dreamcast and Playstation... too bad they didn't get to Xbox 360, PS3, PS2 or Wii.

Kinda reminds me of God of War. Like the reviews. I've ordered some of these old games.

This game is awesome! I'm playing through it right now.

I love the fairy rant

Well, you need to keep in mind that this review was made in 2000, and the Berzerk manga and anime weren't available in the US until 2003 and 2002 respectively.

I burned this game for my Dreamcast two nights ago, and I'll agree, it is about 2/3s movie. My save didn't work correctly, I had played about 2 or so hours. Whenever I got home I turned on the game, and got back to where I was by skipping all the cutscenes, in about..fifteen to twenty minutes. It's pretty short. Also the large one horned black beast they fight, is hard as hell, trying to beat him right now actually. I wouldn't recommend a buy, but definetly a download or a borrow.

Lol. No one likes Puck. ^^;

[ShitCrap]

Btw it's Guts, but yes that would rock.

[iamgunther]

I heard the AWESOME PS2 sequel will get a US port. Not sure it that's true, but that game kept me busy for a long time.

Fifty bucks says Guts dies at the end of the manga!

Reviewers should have watched the Anime or read the manga before they reviewed. :/

Still an alright review, corny jokes but spot on about the gameplay and whatnot.
