I honestly can't remember if I ever finished it. When you look back, it seems as if Smilebit was one of the only Japanese devs that gave the Xbox a shot, and they were completely serious about it with great games like Gunvalkyrie, JSRF, and Panzer Dragoon Orta. Unfortunately no one gave a shit and I think Smilebit was dissolved, or I suppose reabsorbed, shortly thereafter. The current team's most recent effort was Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games. Yikes. This game was fun as hell, if somewhat difficult due to the obtuse control scheme, and at the time its graphics were mind-boggling. I honestly can’t remember if I ever finished it.
