Well at least the sprites will look less jaggy on the PS2 at 15khz. But I'm sure it will still be interlaced.

The PS2 game line up keeps growing and growing. It,s pretty much official the PS2 has the most diverse library of games ever.

The sprites are all jaggled up in VGA on my copy of React.

If we got some luck, this PS2 version might got progressive scan graphic.
(I wish for a DC version... I think DC native VGA is much better.)

Otherwise interlanced is good for me, since I only got TV in regular positon. And interlanced graphic look better on TV.

So is this game any good then?
The backgrounds look horrible and the sprites all a bit tiny and out of place.

WHo has played it that is a fighting game fan and can tell me if it rocks.

It's a combo-centric game with characters that have abilities ripped from some other fighting game characters. The sprites certainly aren't tiny but they're not exactly smooth either.

I've played this a fair bit. PC as well as arcade.

The Good:

- Awesome setting and characters
- Fighting system is new and unique
- Comboing is fun as hell, once you get the hang of it.

The Bad:

- Takes some time to learn the style of play

The Ugly:

- Highly pixelated sprites.

I'm no 2D Beat-em-up guru, but overall I like this game a lot. People who are into SNK Fighters will like this a lot, I think. Capcom and GG fans might not synch with the system as easily.

I don't really play 2D fighters anymore, but I think the game looks nice. (Is it just me or do the matches take forever compared to other fighters...?)
