As a hardcore gamer with a fondness for the next-generation games as well as the classics of years ago, it’s something of a delightful treat to see many of the arcade classics return so a new generation can play them. Among the classics making a comeback on the PlayStation 2 console is the final three Fatal Fury games of the Real Bout line. Fatal Fury: Battle Archives Volume 2 not only features the best games in the fight game genre but also does justice to these coin-op classics.
As I mentioned above, the final games in the Fatal Fury games revolved around the Real Bout franchise that attempted to mix up the usual 2D playing field. Real Bout: Fatal Fury, the first game in the collection of three, even introduced the “ring out” concept that had fighters toss their opponents out of the battle area. We also get to see each fighter evolve from cardboard cutout characters to brawlers with their own distinct killer moves and some personality.
