A good 2D fighter for the PC that probably will sadly probably never see American shores.

GAME DESCRIPTION: “Melty Blood Act Cadenza is a Windows PC port of the Arcade ver. Melty Blood makes use of widely used concepts in fighting games such as cancels (cancelling an attack before its animation ends, then beginning another, allowing for more complex and damaging combos) chain combos (normal moves that can be link without the use of cancels) and the use of power bars (called Magic circuits in-game).

Magic circuits serve more purposes than just allowing the execution of special moves. Chain combos are much easier to perform in comparison to other games, and it also brings other interesting features like simultaneous impacts and dash shielding among others. In addition, it brings the original concept of Shielding into gameplay..” –Play-Asia.com

City of
Heroes is a satisfying venture into the realm of comic book superheroes. While not for everyone, COH is sure to please fans of the comic book/cartoon genre and a great first step into the foray of MMOs.
