2008 could go down in the annals of time and history as the Return of the Fighting Game. The mid-90's are what we widely consider the golden-age of fighters, with the monumental crash of said genre somewhat accurately occuring in the late 90's-early 2000's. When quality fighting titles have been released in recent years, they have sold very well, proving in essence that the genre remains viable in today's gaming populous, and could perhaps do with a resurgence. Updates to many of our favorite's from days gone by are in production as we speak. And most of these titles are slated for release in this calendar year. I intend to write a continuing series regarding this exciting new trend, profiling and discussing an individual title in each entry and linking available media (if any) of those title's.
Is the return of the genre exactly what fighting fans have been clamoring for? Or could it merely be a quick cash in, without enough evolution or substance to truly revive this beloved, quarter munching past time?
