    Anything worth getting? I was thinking about picking up the street fighter 30th anniversary collection, but the reviews aren’t that good…

      I had fun with the Naruto fighting games. It’s $5 and if you watched the show it’s worth that.
      Ive also heard great things about DBZ kakarot - let’s you play thru the entire storyline of the show.

      What sort of fighting games are you interested in? What have you played, and what are you curious to try?

        Grew up on Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, Virtua Fighter, etc. I’ve got MK1 on my wishlist but still a bit too pricey for me to pull the trigger. I have SF6 already.

          Among 2D fighters, SF6 and MK1 are pretty dang big.

          I would recommend GBFV:R and GG Strive. Granblue is very grounded, and if you play Street Fighter you’ll be able to wrap your head around the systems. Strive is a bit more anime, but without being too much (in the way that Xrd Rev 2 and Melty Blood are too much for me to comprehend what’s happening).

          I don’t know if you’re into tag-style games, but learning one might help you get ready for when 2XKO comes out. I’m not a Riot fan, but Riot has such a following that whenever it launches, it’ll receive a large playerbase immediately.

          Also, regarding the 30th Anniversary collection, I personally think it’s super cool. Awesome for local play and for nostalgia. It even has netplay for Hyper Fighting, Super Turbo, Alpha 3, and Third Strike, though most PC people are probably just playing on Fightcade instead.
