Capcom vs. SNK 2: Mark of the Millennium 2001

"...if you don’t already own a recent 2D beat ‘em up, you would be very wise to pick this up. It's especially useful when friends come over as the lowest common denominator sort of entertainment."

"Capcom vs. SNK 2 has a few nifty new features, but is ultimately too much like many of the Capcom fighters that have come before it. There are plenty of modes and options, an easily tweakable color scheme and tons of fighters, but this old taste is getting a little stale. This a fighter worth only a rental if you own any other recent Street Fighter game."

"With the addition of numerous new characters comes a number of new "grooves," or fighting modes... Unlike in its predecessor, Capcom vs. SNK 2 seems to have only one version of each character... the character balance in Capcom vs. SNK 2 is being carefully tweaked..."

"The PlayStation 2 doesn't have a lot of good 2D fighting games available for it yet, so Capcom vs. SNK 2 can be easily recommended by default."

"Though it's headed for arcades on Sega's Naomi hardware, the sequel to Capcom's fan-favorite crossover brawl is coming home on PS2, as even Capcom finally acknowledges that the Dreamcast just doesn't quite have the legs for it."
