Capcom Fighting Collection 2 releases this Friday, May 16th. I know. A lot of people are excited to play Capcom VS SNK 2 online with rollback netcode natively on their consoles. I get it, that there are other games on this compilation, like the widely panned Capcom Fighting Evolution, and the rare sequel to Star Gladiator, Plasma Sword. This is all cool. I am going to enjoy all of it. But I already know what I'm going to enjoy the most. That should be played by everyone. Power Stone 1 is great, but Power Stone 2 is the absolute cream of the crop.
I'll talk more about this gem of a game in my upcoming review, but we haven't seen Power Stone 2 since the Sega Dreamcast, and even then, I don't recall being able to play it online. I do remember countless days and nights playing it with friends, and looking at the clock later realizing we have to go to work. Power Stone 2 is the 4 player free for all party game that anyone can play. It's a phenomenal party game that everyone should pick up and play, and I'll definitely be picking up a physical copy for the Nintendo Switch (2), so others can play it via game share.
To hype me up, Pax East held a showcase on Power Stone 2, and some very special guests showed up. The absolute star of the show, was Kenny AKA Unroolie, who is part of YoVideogames channel. Also making an appearance was WWE's Xavier Woods, and let's just say, that Kenny needed to double up to take on his opponent. Watch below, and skip through if you must, but there's some phenomenal gameplay here.
