Not entirely sure why the home versions of this game are treated as completely different entries here. Maybe it's because of the guest characters.

Anyway this is one of the best fighting games ever made and quite possibly in contention for the best video game sequel ever.

Smooth responsive combat, excellent sound design, great sense of movement, easy to pick up and play, some what challenging to get good at, pretty good balance, the best stages in the series come from this game, the best soundtrack in the series comes from this game as well. The Xbox version(the version I grew up on for the most part) is graphically stunning.

This is a perfect game
