This has probably been mentioned already, but The Warriors for PS2 based off the 1979 cult classic movie was and still is a fantastic fighting game in my opinion. It's not of the same style as Tekken / Street Fighter / Mortal Kombat etc but it's still a great game to play and the movie is awesome too albeit very cheesy

After looking at the video, my take on what I'm seeing with the characthers:
Michelle: No surprise to see the Julia resemblance for obvious reasons, but her looks have gotten a nice update. Intro reminds me of Tekken 2. Moveset looks pretty much like old times so while my sister will have to get used to Julia's new moveset, she should have no trouble at all with Michelle.
Angel: Looks great, also has gotten a nice subtle update. In Her intro she seems to have a stare that looks into your soul *Dramatic music*. Moveset is unsurprisingly Devil's (Or Devil Jin?), but the animations appear more tailored to her.
Orge: Not alot to say in looks as he basically looks the same, only more graphically polished (which can also be applied to his intro). Moveset though appears to have had some new moves, some of them look abit reconizable.
Kunimitsu: Looks amazing, by far the most striking update. She also appears to have a scare on her face underneith that shorter new mask, possibly an encounter with Yoshimitsu? it could barely be seen in the picture, but its very visable in the intro. Moves are crazy fast and seem to make Raven look slow in comparison.
Absolutely awesome overall, getting all of them without even a second thought. Shut up and take my GBs!!!
Yep. Props to Namco for doing that, hopefully they do the same for TxSF.

If Michelle is like T4 Julia, old juggles coming back? Angel and Devil always had the same moveset but there was always a difference between them. I use to use Angel all the time in T2 and in Tag. Also, didn't Org/True Ogre was top tier in TT? That was probably Hei/True Ogre.

The news of hidden DLC, Infinite, Glitches, and glitch within the glitches made the game's hype go down. But don't forget about the Baby Einstein's combos. If you play the game like AE, your going to hate it. IF you play the game like Marvel or Tekken, your going to hate it. It made its own title if you include the Gems.
