Review-Fighting games with awesome artwork and character design don't always make for great a game.
Gowcaizer features huge sprites, zooming backgrounds and sexy charcter design but sometimes, the scrolling is jerky and there is no trace of any parallax effect.
Despite its highs and lows, it is overall pleasant and represents a welcome diversion from all the other SNK or ADK fighting games in the neo-geo library.
Bottom line: Not the best fighter out there, but the great artwork somewhat rescues it from being just average. 6,5/10
