    The good: an old fighting game with an old flavor (locked extras, locked players unlocked by playing). 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, butThe good: an old fighting game with an old flavor (locked extras, locked players unlocked by playing).

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

    Rumble fish looks like it was made on a 1984 computer with shert paper Mario graphics this is horrible for a fighting game I was going to buy rumble fish 2 on Xbox but after seeing Evo 2023 playing this I change my mind throw this in the rubbish the asking price isn't even worth it at all

    The Rumble Fish 2 was a very good fighting game back in 2005, but today we expect much more from such games. And while the gameplay is still fun, the content is bare-boned.

    Fighting game nerds will no doubt be all over this in a heartbeat, but everyone else might wonder what all the fuss is about. Nonetheless, it's nice to have The Rumble Fish 2 out of the arcades and ported to modern consoles, even if it might be one to file away as 'strange forgotten curio' that should have perhaps stayed in the arcade.

    The Rumble Fish 2 is a competent fighting game that is enjoyable in the single player or local Vs modes, yet crippled by a very poor netcode that makes online matches a bit of a lucky dip.
