2American Gladiators is a recreation of games from the 1989 television series and has you competing in seven events to achieve the highest score against a computer opponent. There is a tournament mode that allows you to go through all games multiple times. The digitized title screen is nice however that's about all that's good. The screen is cropped on some events and there are animation frames missing. Worst of all, the laggy controls don't do what you want them to do. There's no game selction or ability to practice and you cannot skip intro screens. Games like this need good controls however this game just makes me angry. Matches often feel unfair.
