No, you can’t play as one of Bruce Lee’s more credible doppelgangers — the venerable Tekken series’ whip-quick Marshall Law — until Namco gets its act together and releases an iPhone version. But y’know what — nothing compares to the real thing.
Bruce Lee Dragon Warrior — which according to its press release has been given the official stamp of approval from the Bruce Lee Foundation (run by Lee’s daughter, Shannon) and even models the computer-generated Lee using motion capture from one of Lee’s students — is probably as close to Enter The Dragon as anything on the iPhone or iPad is going to get. At $5, the iPhone version’s a little on the pricey side, but the reverse is true for the iPad’s HD version — which is, oddly enough, also $5.
And if we can work up enough nerve to channel Bruce through one of our devices, you might just see a review here soon.
