It's a fully 2D game but you'll need an about average PC setup to run at high graphics, so maybe some optimization could be done, other than that it got style, recommend.

I play all kinds of songs using Big Band's trumpet. That's literally how I've spent the near 500 hours playing this game. 10/10 trumpet simulator.

One of the best fighting games I've played in this generation, and it still gets content to this day! 2 versus 2, similar to Marvel vs Capcom only better! It has offline modes, Arcade, training, History and online modes. Highly recommended!

A flashy retro cartoon styled fighting game. Inspired by some of the most well known fighters, this game has it all. Fun characters, great music, decent online play. Game is fast, can be difficult. Some training is required. Worth a purchase.

Skullgirls 2nd Encore Review

Sam Jones
Staff Review
Skullgirls is a 2D cult classic thanks to its brilliant gameplay and hyperkinetic movements. The classic six-button play does the fighting games of old justice and is extremely addictive. It perfectly captures that feel of fighting games from the 90s - fun, addictive and easy to pick up for another try.
