		Meanwhile, Mikado’s special forces kidnap a girl at a local bar and it is up to the three bouncers of the bar to rescue her and foil the evil plot.
		The game would choose which enemy to attack for you, which could be troublesome from time to time.
		It is very difficult to get into the flow of the game when you have a two to three minute fight sequence and then stop and watch a five minute cut scene before another two to three minute fight sequence.

	PS2 Review for The Bouncer
		The premise behind the game is that there is a giant corporation called the Mikado Group, whose headquarters, the Mikado Building, is located on Dog Street.
		Her past it pretty much a mystery, until agents of the Mikado Group come and kidnap her, thus forcing the three bouncers to attempt to save her once again, thus finding out more about her unexplained past, as well as the evil doings of the malicious corporation that abducted her.
		The game is being labeled an "RPG action," which may prove to be a bit of a disappointment for gamers hoping to play a Final Fight-style game with Matrix-like effects.

	The Bouncer (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Cinematic pretensions aside, the game's execution is textbook to the bone, from the foe-littered gameplay sequences to the quintessential kidnapped girlfriend story hook.
		While the game does feature a survival mode and a two- through four-player battle mode, the small diversion that is its primary mode ultimately seems very disappointing.
		Its not the revolutionary game that the Square and Sony marketing machine would have you believe, coupled with the fact that the game is only one hour long with no replay value, it has left me with a bitter taste in my mouth.

		The game pieces in the box bottom on the right side are made of painted wood, each about 8.8cm long.
		While each "straw" is essentially the same length, the red "straws" are round, the yellow "straws" are squares, the purple ones are in the shape of guns, the green ones are in the shape of serpents, orange ones shaped like lances, beige or blue ones are arrows.
		In the instructions for the game, red sticks are referred to as "Captains", yellow sticks "Warriors", blue sticks "Prince", green "Chieftain", and the one fl stick as "Emperor".

		I had only heard brief summaries of the game itself, and not owning a PS2, didn't plan on having it for quite a while.
		Dauragon C. Mikado must be fairly important to have three different battle themes, each contrasting remarkably.
		I found "Dauragon C. Mikado: Awakening" to be particularly enjoyable due to a very soft, beautifully flowing piano/string introduction that evolves into an almost jazzy, covert-sounding piece.

		The game focuses on the bouncers: Sion Barzahd, Volt Krueger and Kou Leifoh.
		Why she has been kidnapped by the Mikado Group and what role she plays in the intertwined future of the bouncers and the evil folks running Mikado is revealed as you play.
		The game takes advantage of the PS2's powerful internals to create a virtual future world, providing a long and interesting story along with a variety of less thoughtful modes for those who just want to throw a few punches.

	Leann Caldwell: Story
		Kou obviously likes her, and in the game, one of his main focuses seems to be meeting back with Leann for their drink.
		One year ago, Leann was informed by her superior officer about Mikado's solar energy plan and how they were involved in "surgical enhancements." The superior officer said that this mission would be their most difficult one yet, but Leann was certain "he", meaning Kou, could handle it.
		The only times you see her are at the beginning of the game (but never her face) and her face in shadow in the fighter plane.

	PS2 VIDEO GAME REVIEWS... The Bouncer __________\|
		However, the game is subtitled, and I highly suggest putting it on the Japanese voice acting with English subtitles for the full effect.
		And, to be fair, you have to complete the game quite a few times before you can see all that there is to see -- the FMVs change depending on whose viewpoint you're playing from, and certain characters are only unlocked if you play in certain ways.
		If a few more months had been spent tightening the game, making it longer and more involved, I could give it a universal seal of approval, but as it is only the hardcore Square fans and complete graphics junkies really need apply.

	The Bouncer Playstation2 Game Review in ABSOLUTE PLAYSTATION 2 ( PS2 ) - The Bouncer
		Granted that this is the first PS2 game to make use of full Dolby Digital, the number of times the game actually uses it is few and far between.
		Fans of fighting games may be put off by the constant action to video sequences and the limited amount of fighting moves, but through re-playing and building characters there is a definite value to the game.
		This game is little more than average and we advise renting or play-testing before considering a purchase.

		Named after the Spanish game of pick-up sticks, the Mikado was created by Miguel Herranz, who had wanted to fashion a lamp out of narrow pieces of veneer.
		So for both the hanging and standing versions of the Mikado, he used are a six-foot-long band of veneer, onto which he screwed seven more lengths of veneer spliced into six-inch-long by a-half-an-inch-thick pieces.
		The suspended version of Mikado has stainless steel cables, while the standing style has a matte chrome metal pole and base.

		Your objective is now to rescue Dominique, even though you aren't sure why she was abducted in the first place, you immediately head for the train that leads to Mikado.
		The dialog in this game follows the characters' lip movements very well and is available in your choice of either English or Japanese.
