 | | Fighting games and Side-scrolling fighting games at MobyGames | | | Weapons-emphasized games have a plethora of martial-arts weapons (such as nunchaku and shuriken) as well as other types of weapons that are already at the player's disposal or can be found as the player progresses through the game. | | | Fighting games or fighters are video games in which players fight each other or computer-controlled enemies, usually employing some variation of the martial arts. |

| | Online Fighting Game |
| | Fighting is resolved as a "fighting game" style combat, that means a typical 3 rounds with a life bar sort of combat. | | | I suppose that besides the minimal social life involved, the game should be concentrated on the combat part, offering player different combat styles, weapons, even sub-division from each style where they can learn different special moves and develop their characters to their own liking. | | | I suppose that this is more of an action game, but since online is one of the categories I suppose that it'd be more relevant that way. |

| | Fighting Fantasy Game Books - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The Fighting Fantasy series distinguished itself by the use of a dice mechanic used to resolve combat and other situations, not dissimilar to that used in Dungeons and Dragons and other role-playing games, though far simpler. | | | The Fighting Fantasy system, in comparison with the mechanics employed in role-playing games like Dungeons and Dragons or even the similar Lone Wolf series, is extremely simple. | | | The action in a Fighting Fantasy gamebook is split into small sections, ranging from a paragraph to a page, at the end of which the character usually must make a choice or roll a die. |

| | GameSpy.com - Review |
| | Soul Calibur was more than just a fighting game or a sequel to Soul Blade; it was one of those games that raises the bar for an entire genre and makes people reconsider what games can do. | | | The addition of weapons to the fighting game mix has put the Soul Calibur series in its own arena; the intensity of clashing blades and the strategies afforded by their behaviors makes the game feel more visceral than any of the other fighters on the market. | | | You'll find a handful of new characters, a mutation of the pioneering single player game the series is known for, and the beautiful graphics and music you'd expect. |

| | The Armchair Empire - Playstation 2 (PS2) Reviews: Dragonball Z: Budokai |
| | Unlike most fighting games where the player really has to come up with combos on their own, here it’s almost as though the combos are repackaged. | | | All game and anime imagery is the property of their respective owners. | | | This overly simplistic approach to combat then works its way through a number of game modes with the usual practice, story, and versus modes as well as a tournament mode with overly long pre-battle character intros that can’t be bypassed by pounding away on the controller. |

| | Fighting game amidst the decline - Entertainment |
| | Though this is game is worth owning, if you're into 3-D fighters or fighters in general, I recommend renting the game first to try out the first player and multi-player modes. | | | Since the birth of the next generation consoles, there has been a huge decline in the number of fighting games that are available to play on home systems. | | | This is probably due to the fact that the controllers make playing two or three-dimensional fighting games challenging. |

| | GameSpot's Best and Worst of 2004 - GameSpot |
| | The game's characters use a wide variety of fighting styles, and have special moves that need to be feared and respected, especially because many of them open you up to the game's combo system, which can be very damaging. | | | The game's online component is easy to jump right into, and with the additional Archon-like chess mode, you can drop the game's fighting engine into something a little bit deeper. | | | While the game's finishing moves might not have much to do with the actual fighting, fatalities and hara-kiris give each match a satisfying conclusion--provided you've learned how to execute the moves, of course. |
