Shrek SuperSlam
Shrek SuperSlam, un jeu de combat développé par Shaba Games et édité par Activision, est sorti le 25 octobre 2005 sur PC, PlayStation 2, Xbox et GameCube. Ce titre met en scène les personnages de la série de films Shrek dans un système de combat. La presse a salué la solidité fondamentale du système de combat et son système de combos plus approfondi que suspecté, tandis que Yahoo! a relevé la présence de vingt personnages, seize niveaux et une bonne valeur de rejouabilité, jugeant le jeu adapté aux enfants comme aux adultes. Certains joueurs sur Metacritic ont toutefois exprimé des réserves, déplorant une difficulté excessive du mode histoire et estimant que le titre ne parvient pas à surpasser Super Smash Bros. L'ensemble affiche une note moyenne agrégée de 60,92.

Avis des critiques et joueurs
Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« The game’s combat system is fundamentally solid with an excellent combo system that is actually much more in-depth than I originally suspected. »
« Offering 20 characters, 16 levels, and a ton of replay value, this title is great for kids and adults alike, and shouldn't be dismissed as a mere licensed game (or "merchandise") -- it's the real deal. »
« Shrek SuperSlam is just like Powerstone, but with Shrek characters. I'm sure you remember how good Powerstone on the Dreamcast was, too. I remember those days well! »
« To inspire any future attraction from older gamers, the developers must consider making adjustments to the game’s response system and also the overall action speed—even though Slamming Charming into the castle never gets old. »
« As far as children's titles go, this one is absolutely terrific. It takes all of the fighting games like SoulCalibur and Mortal Kombat and puts them into a witty, harmless game that you don't feel so bad about letting them play. »
« "Good." Yeah, that about sums up the game. Not "great," and certainly not "shite," but it doesn't quite have the longevity of "Super Smash Bros.," nor the kind of size and complexity of "PowerStone's" environments. Still, it’s a better game than we should be getting for a game license, and as a rental, it’s perfect for a weekend’s play. »
« Shrek SuperSlam is a quality fighting game, combing raucous arena style battles with a party game atmosphere, not to mention the high-spirited cast of characters from the hit films. »
« A great game for a group of friends as well as for the younger crowd. Its target audience actually ends up being a great decision because of the easy to pick up and simple gameplay. »
Avis des Joueurs (Metacritic)
« Shrek SuperSlam is "Good", expect there are some flaws. It's too hard on the Story Mode. Cause what do you mean i need to do a 1v3... TWICE! That's just too hard for a game made for 10 year-olds. »
« This game exists and there are NO other qualities to it, and despite it's attempts, it can't overthrow Super Smash Bros »
« Algunos personajes son interesantes de usar (a pesar de estar desbalanceados), lo mismo con los escenarios y desafíos. Puede hacerse un poco repetitivo, pero es muy divertido las primeras partiditas. Juega con amigos y destroza ese escenario con superslams!!! »
« This game is an unparalled masterpiece. Shrek SuperSlam revolutionizes the fighting game genre beyond imagination. The no words or numbers will do this gem justice. Just play it yourself. »
« This fighting game deserves more credit than it gets. This fighting game is very done and it has a lot to do along with a lot of characters to unlock. »
