Also, while I reference Angry Joe above as the source, I'd advise against taking his DMC5 angry review as a normal review of his. Yeah, normally I feel like I can trust his opinion but despite his disclaimer at the start of the review you can tell he's being as positive as possible and as forgiving as possible on the game.
The reason is because of what he disclaims - the game is by Capcom, and he's in them middle of creating and releasing a minatures board game that's based on Street Fighter. IE: He has a reason not to go ruffling any feathers at Capcom. Especially back then when the board game was still very early on.
Even when he points out the fact that the extra costumes for the main characters would cost WAY more than the game itself (3 x 19.99 for each costume) Not sure why I think there are 3 characters as I haven't been paying attention to the game at all since the review but either way. Even just having 2 characters means you'd have to pay up 120 bucks for just 2 costumes to get "The complete game", or play the game constantly for a year or more. We both know any sane person will no longer be sane, or have long since lost interest playing the game by then.
