Although Art of Fighting is lacking in the art portion, it still is a very good fighter.
The story isn't that original, it's really the fighting equivalent of Super Mario. Instead of Peach, you have a sister. Instead of Mario, you have a whole selection of characters to choose from (you have to unlock all of them but 2 though).
The graphics aren't all that great, but they are decent. The sounds are very basic and aren't bad or good either.
The fighting is very well done. The moves look cool and neat. Each character gets their own set of special moves and they fit the indivual styles of fighting well.
The AI is not dumb. If you just stand their trying to do a special move, the AI will come after you. It will also try and corner you then start blistering you with punches and kicks. The difficulty is well done, you can tell the challenge does get harder/easier.
The game also teaches you the characters special moves throughout the story mode, but all of them use the same combinations of buttons for each character, they just look different.
Art of Fighting is a game that can be enjoyed by many. It's better than Mortal Kombat (One), so why not try it out?
