    Rumble Fish 2 is a great game for people like me who enjoy solid fighting games. It won’t stick with most players beyond initial contact though. It feels like it borrows more than it innovates and in a sea of familiar brawlers that is rough. I enjoyed my time, but will likely forget it exists in a month or two. Then one day I will be browsing my game library and think to myself “hey, that was a pretty cool game!”

It is a very technical game, here it is not worth hitting buttons like crazy (it can help you win a round or a fight between friends but the AI will put you to the test and even overcome it). The anime design is maintained. Includes the animated intro from the arcade and PS2 version, but as an extra. The gallery of designs per character is very good (you have to unlock each one)

    The bad: The characters were not redrawn they use the elongated/stretched sprites so that blur is noticeable in portrait images and in zooms during fights. Its soundtrack is not complete, only rhythmic themes were left, the vocal themes are not there

    The Meh!: the least you will see are fish. It is a game that implies commitment to get into playing it, understand it and try to master its mechanics... or it can drive you away after seeing how the AI ​​turns the fights over and over again    … Full Review »
