Shrek, Princess Fiona, Puss in Boots, Donkey and the rest of the fairyland peeps from the Shrek movies (even Prince Charming and the Gingerbread Man) are in a new game! Shrek SuperSlam is all about crazy battles and we review it here.

SuperSlam Battling 101

Shrek SuperSlam is a fighting game that's a cartoony smashfest with a twist - no life bars! Instead, you power up your Slam Bar and unleash super-powerful Slam attacks, scoring a point for each opponent you Slam. You can unleash this cartoon mayhem in a few single-player levels, but the multiplayer battles are what it's all about!

Shrek SuperSlam-Tastic Moves and Battles

From hilarious moves like Shrek's fart attack and the Gingerbread Man's ninja-fu, to the ability to tear the battlefields apart and unleash wicked Slam attacks, Shrek SuperSlam is packed with awesome action! You can even unlock an extra 10 characters from the Shrek movies, and a bunch of extra areas to battle in.

Lame Combos in Shrek SuperSlam

The biggest problem with this game is that there isn't a lot of single-player action, if you don't have friends to play it with, it's weak. The weapons make the battles pretty unfair too; Shrek SuperSlam is more about being wacky than balanced.

Shrek SuperSlam - Cool or Crud?

It's a great game that's full of laughs and goofy smashing action. The single-player mode is a bit weak, but the multiplayer mayhem makes this a great game for parties, or any time you can get some friends together to play.
