Capcom's Beat Down has about as much finesse as a curb-stomping. It's brash, violent and might make some gamers outright blanche.

Continuing in the once hallowed tradition of the beat-em-up genre, Beat Down will appeal to those who wonder why Final Fight & Double Dragon just aren't popular these days. Ironically or at least conveniently, Beat Down provides the answer to that rhetorical question. No matter how much makeup you throw on an aging actress, the wrinkles will manage to slice through the facade, revealing the cracked foundation lying beneath the surface. In an attempt to appeal to todays generation by tossing in unecessary bells and whistles that aren't welcome in the genre, Beat Down comes off as a convoluted mish mash of concepts wrapped in an angry blanket of life-siphoning load times. And that my friends, is the long view.
One aspect the Xbox generation will enjoy thoroughly is the mind-numbing violence that permeates almost every playing moment. Beat Down is one of the more violent offerings I've played in recent memory. As one of five available characters, you'll make your way through the mean streets, stopping every step of the way to converse with strangers and shady acquaintances. It's these conversations that become a natural springboard for violence which are instigated by an unwelcome RPG-esque 'choose your response' mechanic which slows the pace of the game to a crawl and constantly pulls you out of the reality of the game. Since this is the way Beat Down advances the plot, you won't be able to bypass these interludes to destruction - as I like to call them. Once the decision is made to interrogate, rob, recruit or fight- and let's face it, that's what you're playing for in the first place - then the violence explodes and faces and bodies are bloodied beyond recognition. As you progress you'll also be faced with the distribution of upgradeable power and techniques which seems to be coming standard in action games these days.

Beat Down: FOV is a muddled affair, but it has its strengths. Although the fighting engine is weak Capcom keeps it real by allowing only 4 button play (kick, punch...it's all in the mind....sorry, Parappa flashback...kick, punch, block and special). Each character has different varieties of moves channeled from this configuration depending on whether you're hitting high or low. You can also learn new moves from the local barkeep who will also clue you in on some extra-curricular quests from time to time. If you can get past the repetition when it comes to initiating contact with the NPC's, you'll find that the fighting isn't all that bad, just extremely watered down. As you progress you will be able to recruit members to your 'gang' and at times you'll find yourself embroiled in a battle royal with you battling alongside your partners. Your CPU-controlled brawling buddies actually handle themselves very well in a fight which means you can attend to the guy(s) in the corner and not have to worry about covering a teammates back. Another highlight is the ability to play through the game with 5 different characters all with different moves and storylines. At the very least you have to give Capcom points for replay value.
In terms of visual glitz and pizazz Beat Down looks very good. The character models are finely detailed and players who get off on such things will delight in the knowledge that realtime damage effects like blood and other repercussions of fighting are visible and remain that way until you regain some health - by drinking alcohol. There's a public service announcement for you right there.

While I can't wholeheartedly recommend this game there is definitely an audience out there that will get off on the violence and ultra profanity; that's a given. Capcom did the right thing by allowing 2 player battles and extending the replay value with 5 characters but some gamers will have had enough of the load times and mind-numbing decisions by the end of the first story. Rent if you're curious.
