I was quite pleased to try out Little Orbit and Dreamworks Kung Fu Panda: Showdown of Legendary Legends. Yes, that redundancy of that tile is deliberate.

I will be honest in saying that I’m not really into brawler games. When I showed Showdown of Legendary Legends to my son, he compared it to Super Smash Brothers. I suppose that is the biggest thing to compare it to, and he isn’t old enough to play Street Fighter V and Mortal Kombat X.

Personally, I think I can give this game a good review based on how my kids couldn’t wait to play it. There is something fun about playing this game, even if you are losing. I have to say that these games are all about doing both offensive and defensive moves, and these button-mashers allow for a lot of them.

In fact, there are over twenty characters that can be played like Po, Tigress, Shifu, and there will be even more of them for download after Kung Fu Panda 3 comes out. The only main characters that aren’t playable are Viper and Mantis, but they show up in the game has something you can use to attack your opponent, one of many.

Oh yes, I like this game. The only thing that I wish to see more of is hearing Po and other characters say a little more. Maybe I wouldn’t like it if I kept having to hear Po say “Skadoosh” all the time.

Anyway, it is available on pretty much every console, and the movie Kung Fu Panda 3 comes out next month.
