Capcom vs. SNK 2: Mark of the Millennium 2001

Capcom vs. SNK 2: Mark of the Millennium 2001 - PS2

Two of the best fighting game companies collide again!

CAPCOM DOES IT AGAIN!!! All the fighters are back, Chun Li has been redrawn to look much like she did in Street Fighter III Third Strike. New fighters from SNK are Hibiki from Last Blade 2, Rock from Garou, Haohmaru from Samurai Showdown, Todo from Art Of Fighting, Chang (with Choi) from the King of Fighters series, and Athena from KOF (appeared first in a game called Athena). From Capcom we have Kyosuke from Rival Schools, Rolento from Final Fight, Eagle from the VERY FIRST Street Fighter game, Yun from Street Fighter III and Maki from SNES Final Fight 2 (my fave Final Fight game, or the one I mostly rented for that manner). There are now SIX Grooves, the biggest in a fighting game yet. C and S groove are reminicent of the first game, A Groove is similar to V-ISM from Alpha3 and N Groove is the Advanced gauge from KOF 97, P groove is SF3 with a combination of Super SF2 Turbo and K groove is a combination of Samurai Showdown's Rage meter and Garou. Joe and Dan are back from Capcom Vs. SNK Pro and hidden fighters, Morrigan, Nakoruru, Evil Ryu, Orochi Iori and Akuma have been made playable. Only two unlockable fighters are Shin Akuma and Ultimate Rugal. There is the awesome Color Edit Mode, and a even a mode that allows you to edit your own grooves. The backgrounds of this game are the best ones I have seen for a 2D fighter. The music is uninspired, and I expected classic tunes, but it sounds very good overall, the voices are also pretty well done, the announcer is better here than in Alpha3. This is the BEST 2D fighter, if not the BEST FIGHTING GAME OF ALL TIME! If you don't have this game you are not a fighting game fan, Nuff'said!
