Like the original Fighter's Destiny, FD 2 features hundreds of moves and a point-based fighting system. Players must score seven points to win a match.
Favoring lighting effects over gore, FD2 is packed with flashy special attacks
With so many ways to score points, players are forced to use a wide variety of techniques to win. The fighting system relies heavily on timing, since throw moves and counter attacks are heavily rewarded. Even though the game uses an extremely simple controller configuration, each fighter is able to execute over 30 moves. Fighting fans who appreciate finesse-based combat will fall in love with FD 2's approach to the genre.
The graphics in Fighter's Destiny 2 fall short of what we've come to expect from N64 games, but the developers have done a nice job in creating dramatic camera angles for special attacks. The strength of this game definitely lies in its superior fighting engine, which is deep enough to satisfy discriminating fighting fans.
Fighter's Destiny 2 is now available.
