How often do people in America get the opportunity to play a fighting game based on a series of adult-themed anime and manga? Capcom is heeding the call and bringing Fate/unlimited codes, a game based on the PC and PS2 visual novel Fate/stay night, to North America. This game is a port of a popular arcade release with plenty of new bells and whistles to keep the handheld gamer happy, including local wireless play for two and unlockable extras. Capcom recently gave IGN the opportunity to sit down and have a few rounds with Fate to see what all the fuss has been about overseas.
Due to the end of a digital licensing agreement, you may not be able to purchase this PSP title after June 12th. With a special lowered price, this just might be your last chance to purchase it on the Playstation Store.

"Fate/Unlimited Codes strikes a good balance between accessibility and depth, with straightforward controls that most players will quickly grasp. It also has enough complexity available via combos and move-cancels to reward seasoned fighting game players. It's not remarkable enough to be a championship contender, and 30 bucks seems like a bit of a high price to pay for a port of a PS2 game, but if you're looking for a fun fighter to take with you on the go, Unlimited Codes will fit the bill nicely."
Spawn Kill's Molotov Cupcake reviews the PSP version of the fighting game Fate/Unlimited Codes. Is the game a must-have for all fighting fans, or something only fans of the anime series will appreciate? Read the full review to find out.
I like the anime art style in the occasional fighter, but I've already got BlazBlue for that.
I still don't understand the whole appeal of anime-based fighting games. This one looks decent enough, it just seems like an anime game would be a better match for an RPG or action/adventure title.
So there's jap dub ? and eng subs ?
If there are then I'm ON.
Need to take a break from Blazblue but at least Saber can make up my moments without Rachel =3
