Let's get ready to crumble!
This was great N64 fun, from the moment you boot up the game to the tail end of the final credits. Ickybod Clay is back, and he's one of the most powerful fighters in the game (Yay!), so fans of the pumpkin-headed poltergeist can get their ghost on again, instead of having to settle for lame-ass babies and kangaroos. The other new characters are great, too: Houngan the witch doctor is hilarious, and Kung-Pow makes me laugh just by hearing his voice.
To top it all off...we've got EARTHWORM FREAKING JIM in the house, people. He's a playable character, right off the bat. As if that weren't enough, you can unlock Sumo Santa and Boogerman, fight on top of a giant toilet seat, and (if you're lucky) pull off the coveted Triple Brown Betty combo.
Fighting games rarely get this good.
