Digital Legends One 1.25.4


Digital Legends One 1.25.4 | N-GAGE | 13Mb

One is an N-Gage exclusive series of 3D Jeet Kune Do fighting games, featuring motion captured moves from real-life martial arts champion Tommy Carruthers. One for the next gen N-Gage platform was previously known as "One: Who's Next" as it's the sequel to the original gen game of the same name.

Call a game 'One' and you're going to get lazy jokes in any review about the Highlander films. That goes double if your game is all about finding the one greatest fighter in the world. So I'm sure Nokia's marketing department knew what they were getting in for as they prepared to pitch this game.

There is one subtle difference from the Highlander films though, and it is this. The second 'One' (for the new N-Gage platform phones) is actually better than the first 'One' (for the original N-Gage). While the debate over Highlander II: The Quickening will rage for years, the improvements made by Digital Legends in the 3-d Fighting game for the N-Gage platform is all up on the screen, and kills the opposition stone dead.

But it's going to miss out on our rare Mega-game award by the smallest of margins. The fighting genre is one that does not have mass appeal, and there's little in the way of introduction for the casual gamer to allow them to be immersed into the game world in the way that, say, Reset Generation has managed. Is there a good reason why 'training mode' is not available in the demo? I'm still not convinced that generic phone keypads are suited for any game which looks and acts like a console game - and make no bones about it, One is console quality - but a console where you have to use a TV remote control rather than a dedicated gaming controller.
The fact that the rest of the gameplay lifts 'One' so high is a testament to what you can do on the platform, and it's one of the main reasons that the score is so high. 'One' walks away with a highly respectable 89, and the lingering thought of what this would be like on a device designed 100% for gaming, as opposed to the converged nature that is N-Gage on the modern smartphone.
AAN Score: 89%
