Capcom vs SNK 2: EO

Capcom vs SNK 2: EO is a title representing the genre of classic two-dimensional beats'em ups. The Capcom vs. SNK series was launched around the year 2000. Subsequent titles were released on many different consoles, including Dreamcast, the first generation of PlayStation, and even the portable Nintendo DS. This edition was created with Xbox and Gamecube owners in mind. Both versions present a very similar level of quality. This applies to both audiovisuals and available gameplay modes. It is also worth noting that in both cases, two players can play (on a common screen).

The general rules of the game remain unchanged. This battles give us the opportunity to take control fighters representing the two eponymous companies. In total we can choose from forty different characters, taken from games such as Street Fighter, The King of Fighters, Samurai Showdown, Final Fight, Darkstalkers, or Fatal Fury. Initially only a dozen or so warriors are available. However, as the game progresses, new characters are unlocked. There were also some hidden warriors.

Capcom vs SNK 2: EO contains six basic game modes - Arcade Mode (a mode compatible with what is usually offered in arcade salons), Versus Mode (one-on-one duels), Survival Mode, or Training Mode, thanks to which you can get acquainted with the controls. It is worth mentioning here that the differences in behaviour of individual characters are quite considerable. Warriors can be controlled in two different ways. The simpler mode is designed for less advanced players. The expanded mode will satisfy the veterans of the genre.

The visuals of the game presents a relatively high level of quality, even though a two-dimensional environment is used. Particularly noteworthy in this case are complex and at the same time fully animated maps, on which subsequent matches are played. Individual characters move smoothly and the game itself has an extremely dynamic course.
