 Arc System Works just wants more money September 3, 2010
Esther
5 out of 10 found this review helpful
This is nothing more than the cheap crap Arc always pulls off by adding in one or two more things into their games and releasing it like a whole new game in and of itself at close to a full priced game becuase they know people are stupid enough to buy it and keep feeding them money for doing little to no work in updating their games, which they will re-release again and again every 6 months or so.
 The most solid 2D fighting game OUT THERE!!!!!!!! September 1, 2010

At first I had a doubt on buying this game, I'm a Guilty Gear fan, and this game seemed just like a variant, even though I wished a product of this quality had been released for the GG series, it has a really good content.
Without a doubt this game can satisfy hardcore-expert fighting game players, and also beginners. The story mode have very nice drawings, and a good story, instead of the typical 6~10 fights in a row to see an ending that in most games are not coherent between characters, this game has a well told history, and is consistent between characters. There are 3 endings per character:
1. funny: this one is the fastest in most cases, because usually you choose a path to follow before/after a fight, some are cool.
2. bad ending: this is one will show an alternate ending, some will show really good drawings, and will deliver a different point of view of the character history.
3. good ending: well this is the way, things should have happened.
Challenge mode:
===============
This is particularly the best thing in this game, here you will really learn how to use every character. When you first play the game maybe you will say "this character is useless", wrong, terribly wrong. Challenge mode will change your mind.
For those who think they're expert players, you will have a really good time trying to complete the challenges, and a really good feature in challenge mode, is the demo of each challenge, by pressing the L2 button. Expert players will observe and realize how things have to be done and adjust the timing in the most difficult combos. After looking at some of those challenges (9th and 10th of each character), you'll realize that your "expertise" will be really tested, some of those challenges are really really serious.
Just take a look at 10th Hakumen challenge, or Rachel.
Well, beside this, the game have very nice stages and the best music for fighting games out there just like in GG series, most fighting games doesn't have good music that wanna make you fight, this one will.
I haven't played on-line yet, later I'll update the review.
As a final comment, well, I've been playing fighting games since SF2, and I have played almost everything in the genre, Samurai Shodown series, Art of Fighting series, KOF series, xxxx vs Capcom series, Dark Stalker series, Toshinden series, Killer Instinct, MK, Street Fighter series, Guilty Gear series, Tekken series (I love it :P), Soul Calibur series, you name it, I know what I'm talking about, and this game has exceeded my expectations.
Really Worth Buying.

There was nothing I liked about this game, it's very unbalanced and online play is just too insane
There are some characters you have a fun even fair match agianst but then others seem so overpowered compared to most that you can barely touch them, and there are only 14 characters and 1 unlockable (which you have to sit through a lot of crappy anime dialogue to get her and she's not even worth the time to do it all) for a 2-D fighter in this day and age there should be way more expected
Don't waste your time on this until they at least have a roster of 20 characters and maybe it'll fun if they also fix the overpowered characters
Best 2D fighter ever!!!!!!!! August 22, 2010

2 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is a great game, probably the most complex fighting ever, once you learn there moves and combos, you can be great with anybody. This is the only fighting game where every character you have to play with a different style yet everybody is effective in there own way. Another thing is the game was only 30 some dollars and it has a new story and it is also the deepest fighting game story i have ever played, people need to really stop hating because it is not an update, this a new game with new moves, new fighters, new story, and new modes.
Too Hardcore August 21, 2010

This game is just wayyyyyy too much for me
you have to either be really hardcore into anime or fighters to like this game and I am neither
I liked games like Tekken 6 and Trinity Universe but they're pale in comparison of deep you've got to be into anime and fighters to like this game
tutorial was helpful but not nearly enough to make it through harder gameplay or online
some may like it but it's not for me, I just couldn't enjoy this at all
