Namco vs Capcom

I've always dug 2-D fighers more then the later 3-D fighers. Probably as I started with Street Fighter II.

Ahhhh... the days of rows of quarters lining the machines at the upstairs Time Out at Springfield Mall... We were to be feared.

So when they started coming out with the line of "vs" fighting games, I remembered how we always talked about that back during the "old" days of fighting games. "Wouldn't it be cool if you could play Street Fighter vs King of Fighters..." It's amazing sometimes how things you wish for come true.

Well it seems that Monolith (of all people) is developing Namco vs Capcom. It's not your standard 2-D fighter like the other "vs" games. This one seems to be a Fighter/RPG hybrid of sorts.

Looks interesting. PS2 only for now. We'll see how this one shakes out.

Haaaa-doken!
