A great fighting game (not just limited to 2D fighting games)
I only got the game a year or so after release (got a great deal on it) and am really impressed, as there are still many people playing online. The community is excellent. They are good at the game, but not so good that you cannot enjoy online play.
The offline play is also really enjoyable. The story mode can be frustrating (switches between voice and text seemingly at random) but there is a lot of content. The AI is well balanced and is not perfect (i.e. messes up combos sometimes etc.) so you always feel like you have a chance.
The graphics are brilliant, even a year on, with detailed 2D sprites and rich, colourful 3D backrounds.
If you like anime games or fighting games, this is for you.
