a must have, even if you own Virtua Fighter 2, and Fighting Vipers. This game is all you need
There are 11 characters from each game, plus 10 secret characters from assorted Sega games, including Virtua Cop, a character meant for Virtua Fighter 1 but was left out, Sonic: The Fighters, and some more. All these secret characters are earned by beating the game in certain ways. More rewards are offered for winning as well, such as extra options and pictures. Another reason to buy this game is that it has a little treat from Virtua fighter 3. All Virtua Fighters in the game have some moves from VF3 and Janet, from Virtua Cop, uses Aoi Umenokji's moves from VF3. The graphics in Fighters Megamix arent as good as in Virtua fighter 2, you will notice the the characters really blocky and the stages dull, but the game has a nice way of lighting each fighter in stages that have bright lights and sunlight.. The music and takes certain aspects from both games. The walls from Fighting Vipers are in half the levels, and the game play can be selected, as either Virtua Fighter or Fighting Vipers if you're used to one over the other. The Vipers also have their armor, and you can change the fighting style of the game in the options.
You are offered with different courses, from all the characters, VF only, FV only and girls only. There is also a survival and training mode. No online play for this game, but with all the moves to master, you will spend enough hours playing this game (plus, it would be usless since Online for the Saturn is dead).
I recommend this game to anyone who's thinking of buying Virtua Fighter 2, or Fighting Vipers or both. It's a way to save money and get some extra bonus' along the way. And because these two games are two of the best fighters Sega of America has to offer, they're well worth the money.
One thing to add of course is Virtua Fighter's amazing realistic fighting styles. This is the reason Virtua Fighter is my favorite fighting game, and all the moves are in here.
