The gameplay has been tweaked since the last game, but the reversal system is still lacks balance. The computer can pull it off easily but the player will have to predict attacks. There is a tag team mode which is fun as well as survival and time trail. The story mode really isn't that entertaining as it reveals almost nothing about the characters. The basic fighting system is the same. Some new moves have been added while some other ones have been tweaked. But the game lacks all replay value of the previous installment. There is nothing to unlock. This is just a pure fighting game and doesn't have much to come back to.
This game looks stunning. This is without a doubt the best looking Dreamcast game. The characters look very realistic and they fixed the girls over-bouncing problem. All the characters move realistically and animation is as smooth as ever. The game sounds great as well though it does have some minor flaws.
Final words: An excellent fighting game but doesn't last very long.
