But then the first <strong>Capcom Fighting Game Collection<\/strong> came out last fall with remasters for some of the most important titles from the mid to late 90s (plus one from the 2000s) \u2014 all in the same package. We\u2019re talking about absolute classics like <strong>X-Men: Children of the Atom<\/strong>, <strong>Marvel Super Heroes<\/strong>, and most importantly, <strong>Marvel vs. Capcom 2<\/strong>. But the goodness doesn\u2019t stop there because in a few months, another anthology is due out \u2014 <strong>the Capcom Fighting Collection 2<\/strong>, which features an arguably even stronger lineup of brawlers from the early 2000s.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A Stronger Lineup<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>And after getting the chance to preview the game prior to its official release on May 16, this assemblage is both a tribute to fighting game history and a great way to waste time smashing buttons. But perhaps most importantly, by putting all these games in one place, it\u2019s so much easier for people to access titles like <strong>CvS2<\/strong>, which have been hard to find since its original release back in 2001. Honestly, I\u2019d pay $40 just to have a modern version of <strong>CvS2<\/strong> and <strong>Power Stone 2<\/strong> that I can play without dusting off a PS2 or Dreamcast (the latter of which I don\u2019t even own). So to get both of those alongside six other titles with tons of original art, improved training modes, a couple of bonus songs, and a limited edition comic book (only for physical copies, though) feels like a truly excellent value.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A True Love for Fighting Games<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sure, these games might just be rereleases, but for those with fond memories of early 2000s fighting games, it feels like this is <strong>true love we\u2019re makin\u2019<\/strong> all over again. The <strong>Capcom Fighting Collection 2<\/strong> is available for pre-order now with official sales starting on May 16 for $40.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Key Features<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Available for pre-order now<\/li>\n<li>Official sales start on May 16 for $40<\/li>\n<li>Features an arguably even stronger lineup of brawlers from the early 2000s<\/li>\n<li>Includes titles like <strong>CvS2<\/strong> and <strong>Power Stone 2<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Tons of original art, improved training modes, and bonus songs<\/li>\n<li>Limited edition comic book (only for physical copies, though)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/gaming\/capcom-fighting-collection-2-is-a-celebration-of-early-2000s-brawlers-150055451.html?src=rss\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Source Link<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Capcom Fighting Collection 2: A Tribute to Fighting Game History Fighting games fans thought it would never happen.
