Cheap and Hot Girl-on-Girl Action for PS2 Gamers

arcana heart - playstation 2 - all girl fighting game

Not only is the PlayStation 2 about to get treated to some hot girl-on-girl action, it’s going to receive that luscious goodness on the cheap. Atlus USA has announced that they will be porting Arcana Heart over to the American market. You’ve probably never heard of this game, but the concept is actually quite simple. It’s an all-girl 2D fighting game and it seems like it’ll come packed with bitch slaps in full tow.

It might be quite as sexy as, say, Dead or Alive Beach Volleyball, but if you’re into the whole anime/cosplay thing, then Arcana Heart will be right up your alley. Atlus PR rep Aram Jabbari said that the PS2 is still a “viable platform” and that “there is no reason to abandon a veteran system just because it isn’t the newest thing around.” Well said, my friend. Although I’m itching for some Super Smash Bros. Brawl action, my favorite fighting games are still the 2D legends like Mortal Kombat II and Street Fighter III.

Oh, and that part about cheap girl-on-girl action? Arcana Heart, when it launches on April 8, will sell for a budget price of $29.99. That’s cheaper than a monthly membership at, ahem, certain websites.

World Heroes Anthology Coming to PS2

When most people think of fighting games, it’s Street Fighter that usually comes to mind. SNK Playmore doesn’t want you to forget that they’ve had quite a few popular fighting game franchises too. They’ve got Fatal Fury, for example, which introduced us to a certain “me bouncy” girl. They’ve got King of Fighters, which paved the way to team-based fighting games. And then they’ve got World Heroes, a strange fighting game that took character inspiration from all sorts of sources. You can’t deny that Dragon looks a little too much like Bruce Lee and Rasputin is, well, Rasputin. Talk about a mad monk!

Well, while it may not be one of the best fighting games of all-time, World Heroes is trekking its way over to American PS2 consoles. SNK Playmore USA has announced that they are porting World Heroes Anthology to the PlayStation 2 and the collection is scheduled for release next Spring. The package wraps all of the World Heroes games you’ve come to know (and forget) into one convenient title. You get World Heroes, World Heroes 2, World Heroes 2 Jet, and World Heroes Perfect.

It’s only a matter of time before each of these winds up on the Wii Virtual Console. For 900 Wii Points each.
