Bandai Namco's Jump Force was just released a few months ago and it didn't exactly get hot reviews. The 3D fighting game had decent but ultimately forgettable combat plus laughably bad character animations in cutscenes. However, the game did allow us to see some fun interactions between anime characters from different universes and a lot of hardcor...
I should give special props to the underrated 3v3 fighting game Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid for the PS4, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox One. It's fast and frenetic Marvel vs Capcom-style combat with simplified controls, it's got great controls, and it's pretty affordable for a fighting game made in 2019. Props to the Hasbro and nWay for sticking ...

As you play through your bouts of Street Fighter V online, you wonder to yourself: how in the Nine Hells did Capcom come up with the idea of a stretchy Indian mystic with "yoga" powers and flame breath? You're not the only one, as many fighting game fans do ponder about it. Retro game site Shmuplations republished a 2003 interview with Street Figh...
We haven't forgotten about Super Smash Bros. Ultimate; we've just been too busy with a ton of games these past few months.

Persona 5's Joker, or Segata Sanshiro in my playthrough, will be a playable character in SSBU...
