Well not having an Arcade Mode seems silly. Street Fighter indeed appeal more to the hardcores than to the casuals, since Tekken and MK outsell SF, but every fighter should have an Arcade Mode.

Oh, there's new bells and whistles and combos and even styles of combos, and maybe the camera even whips around on a 3D plane at times... but you're still locked onto a 2D plane. If a kick or punch is thrown, your options are jump to avoid it, duck, or move backwards... no sideways movement.

Cool in 1992. Bizarre in 2017.



What? How is taking a fighting series that evolved from 2D into 3D then back into 2D anything but the perfect definition of regressive?
I personally am not a big fan of 3D fighters overall, although Tekken 5 was pretty solid. I just prefer 2D fighters myself, I guess. Dunno why but I just do.
