"I'd imagine that even the younguns that this title is aimed towards would get sick of it very quickly -- a familiar license can only go so far, after all. If this game were an actual party, it'd be a shindig thrown by your high school pre-calculus teacher. Avoid."
--Heidi Kemps, Gamespy

"Xiaolin Showdown has the elements of a good game, but the execution is so sloppy and shallow that it ends up falling flat."
--Greg Sewart, 1up

"Aside from a lack of originality, repetitive levels, and a dull-as doornails storyline and dialog, BottleRocket's game is a relatively solid little game that will satiate your lust for button-mashing brawling."
--Douglass C. Perry, IGN

"This simplistic brawler's condescending attitude and one-note gameplay make it worth dodging."
--Ryan Davis, GameSpot

"Start with a second-rate cartoon license. Add a dash of a bargain-bin party game, then stuff it inside half-baked 3D roaming combat and stir well. Finally, let the mix rot in the sun for a week."
--Games Radar

"Xiaolin Showdown isn't any fun. Not even a little, and not even for a short time. All the hope and promise is lost on a combat system that feels repetitive the second you start attacking."
--Louis Bedigian, Gamezone

"Some of the ideas are nice, and the combat could be fun if there was a little more variety. Sadly, most of the ideas are stuck inside a boring game."
--Matt Richards, Gaming Trend

"Xiaolin Showdown borrows some of the concepts of the best party games and action beat 'em ups but doesn't deliver anything compelling or exciting - even for kids."
--Jamed Fudge, Gameshark.com
