Capcom vs SNK 2 EO: Xbox Live
|
|
|
| Description:
In Capcom vs SNK 2 EO Capcom resurrects old enemies for yet another battle. Capcom's Street Fighter characters, familiar to all but the newest or most sheltered video-game players and fighter fans, have starred in more games than should be possible. The game offers a remarkable assortment of fighters, fighting styles, and variety of play. Forty characters--each with their own special powers, attacks, timing issues, personalities and sound bites--get magnified three-fold by three separate "-isms" that alter their powers and three "grooves" that mix them up yet again. There's a lot to learn and it ensures that playing a foe of equal skill is never dull because you can never be sure what character he's going to pick and how that character will fight. The graphics are generally decent, though some of these fighters look like they haven't been spiffed up for today's console systems. The older Street Fighter guys look just plain bad next to newly added characters from the SNK stable. But the animation is smooth, the backgrounds have been significantly redone and feature new, often startling animations and the special effects are just plain awesome. The audio is pretty much the same old themes that Capcom has been using for the better part of a decade now. It's all good, because those sound effects are part of the reason fans keep buying the same game over and over again. The Xbox version is playable over Xbox Live (sold separately), which is a big advantage--everyone knows that these games, born of arcade coin-ops, are meant to be played competitively. The ability to start up a relatively lag free game at a moment's notice and trade trash talk with other gamers around the world is just priceless and a welcome addition to the series. If you are, or have ever been, a Street Fighter 2-D fight fan, then Capcom vs SNK 2 EO over Xbox Live is a joy not to be missed. --Andrew S. Bub

Excellent Buy Better Than The PS2 Version
(June 21, 2006) |

This is miles better than the ps2 version, i own both consoles and had to buy the game on the xbox as the ps2 version doesn't have online and as the kids dont know how to do the moves they have the option to play automatic although i still beat them being the legend i am at street fighter but its fun, its jam packed with features, everything you could want in a street fighter game. the SNK characters are surprisingly good and enjoyable to play with. anyone who likes steet fighter has got to get this game and test their skills online. you have a number of grooves to choose from which have different combo and special moove systems, you can even create your own groove to suit you, it has evil characters which have to be unlocked, vs mode, 2 types of survival mode, arcade mode, you can edit your players colours and plenty more.
if your a street fighter fan then this will take up most of your xbox playing time, 10 outa 10, BUY IT!!! |

Hello Xbox Live
(February 02, 2003) |
|
The best part about this game (exclusive to Xbox only) is the ability to play online against anyone in the world! The built-in support for voice chat via Xbox Live will add a whole new level to this game, not seen since the age old days of the arcade! |
