Based on the popular video game, the story begins in Ancient China, where a warlord possesses a mystical medallion that is so powerful he feels compelled to split it in two. He gives one half, with power over the body, to one son, and the other half, with power over the soul, to his second son. The story then flash forwards to the year 2007, in "New Angeles," formerly Los Angeles, after a big earthquake, where the police rule only by day, and punk gangs take over after the 6:00PM curfew. One man, Koga Shuko, wants to rule the city. In order to do so he must have both halves of the infamous and deadly medallion, but he only has one, and he will stop at nothing to retrieve it. So begins the hunt. [More]

One Guy's Opinion

How hard would it be to come up with a story at least as good as that of the original Nintendo game? Impossible, apparently.
