An average fighting game with nice marketing


During the second half of the 00s, connectivity became a big thing in most media outlets. Games would derided or given high marks depending on their online capability, so it's no surprise that the Capcom offering you see here was strongly promoted on the back cover of most magazines of the era with that in mind.

Although Capcom Fighting Evolution was released for both the PS2 and Xbox, the printed material you see here is solely for the green beast by Microsoft. For retro gamers like myself this was no surprise. The Xbox had a huge advantage over Sony's machine in terms of connectivity.
