2D sprite fighters are a dying breed and so are new games on the PS2.
That's why Arcana Heart should be exciting news for fighting fans as it just might be the last new old school 2D fighter they'll see for a long time.
Ported from the 2006 Japanese arcade game, Arcana Heart is a combo-centric fighter that puts a lot of emphasis on juggling the opponent and getting into aerial scuffles. At first glance, the game looks a lot like its more famous predecessor, Guilty Gear X - except without the awesome 'squeedly vs meedly' guitar soundtrack and with a lot more Sailor Moon knockoffs.
In response the recent UK survey, which shows 1 in 5 Brits would have sex with a Robot - Rice Digital takes a look at the videogame robots they'd most like to sleep with.
New Arcana Heart pillow covers are available in three different designs. The new covers come with AR codes that you can scan with your smartphone.
