Indie Box - The Rumble Fish 2, how come my fish isn't fresh?

With the Indie Box, the entire XboxSquad editorial team offers you mini reviews of very little known or featured indie games. While some don’t deserve to step out of the shadows of the Xbox Marketplace, others might be worth a look. That is the whole subject of this section.

Published by VS Fighting fans and other arcade junkiesunlikely the rest of you know the license The rumble fish

. It was released in 2004 and developed by Dimps studio and then ported to Playstation 2. A second part will see the light of day in the following year, but this time only on an arcade terminal. Until now.

Lost in the jungle that was the world of fighting games back then, The rumble fish 2 had some good points to make though. If the title doesn’t shine for the charisma of its characters or its settingssome elements are nevertheless original enough to give him credit. In particular, the two super bars at the bottom of the screen quickly draw our attention

. One is dedicated to your offensive maneuvers, the other to incoming shots. Attack and defense briefly. And any of them, or even both at the same time, give you the opportunity to unleash special attacks that can turn the tide of battle.

Finally, a good little 2D fighting game reserved only for fans of the genre who would not have had the opportunity to try it then. The others go their own way.
