What can I say about this game that hasn't been said already? It's breath-taking. Amazing. Life-like. Addictive. Mind-boggling. Fun, even if you HATE fighting games. This is the only fighting game I have EVER truly loved. You can't help but develope a bond with your favorite character. Mine is Sophitia. Beautiful, fluid, precise, deliberate. You just HAVE to see this beauty, in her 3rd outfit, doing her Kata in Exhibition Theatre! (After you've "unlocked" that feature, of course) I finished everything there was to finish in this game, 5 months ago. I STILL play it all the time. I'll actually dump my saves on my VMU, and start all over. There is no way you can go wrong buying this game. None. Like I said, even if you don't like fighting games. You'll be hooked in the short amount of time required to learn the basic moves. My son pleaded with me to give it a try, and I was hooked 15 minutes later.
