I don't even like fighting games, but I love this game.

I am not a fan of fighting games even though I have played many of the one out there: Soul Caliburs, Street Fighters, Mortal Kombat, etc. I haven't truly enjoyed a fighting game, beyond a couple of hours, since the original street fighter. However, I found this game to be very fun.

The gameplay has depth, but not so much that it will drive you crazy. The graphics are...well...amazing. I don't usally care about graphics, but these are so good that it makes a difference. The music isn't bad; it's just not memorable. The extra costumes are worth unlocking so this game will last you awhile. Xbox Live will make it last forever. There are enough bad people online that you won't be intimidated, but there are also so many good people that you will always be challenged.

It is the best X-Box 360 game yet. I would even go as far as to say that it's the first must have game for the system. And don't forget, I don't even like fighting games.
