    That spark Capcom lit throughout the ’90s is one that changed the fighting game genre forever. And it’s one that’s been dim for quite some time. I’ve never forgotten the creativity it once sprinkled into each release, and I’ve been waiting for that version of the company to return. Time will tell whether Street Fighter 6 indeed brings Capcom back — but Capcom Fighting Collection has me more excited than ever. [Polygon Recommends]

    A collection of great classics including some that have never released outside of Japan before. Loads of great extras to see. Some nice concessions to QOL like online play and saves.

    Bad-
    No English translations for Japanese only games. Far too much of the collection is darkstalkers games. Nothing hear to endear you if you are already a fan.

    Thoughts-
    But ultimately, that’s all splitting hairs a little. What we got here is pretty good — very accurate and faithful translations of these classic arcade experiences, with loads of extra swag for fans, and some concessions made to modernity. Those who already loved these games, or at least love Capcom’s fighting game heritage, are going to find enough here for this to be a worthwhile purchase. If you aren’t in those categories of being either a fan of these specific games, or Capcom’s history with the genre, or even just curious about the evolution of arcade fighters though, I can’t see there being much here that particularly endears itself to you. Capcom Fighting Collection is a fine way to commemorate an important anniversary, and to make some classics previously lost to time available to modern audiences — but ultimately, it is very much preaching to the choir. Not that there is anything wrong with that.    … Full Review »

    There's a trophy to watch every ending in Red Earth / War Zards. That includes losing and continuing 20 times with each character.There's a trophy to watch every ending in Red Earth / War Zards. That includes losing and continuing 20 times with each character. Unfortunately, one of the characters doesn't properly update using the quick save/load feature so instead of sitting around and waiting to lose 80 matches I had to sit around and lose something like 130 matches. 130. Matches. Not sure what other game makes you lose that many on purpose. At this point I had to use more continues than win in any of the games up to this point.… Full Review »
