Is it still worth playing?

A 2008 fighting game built for the Taito Type X2 arcade hardware and ported in 2009 to the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Windows. It uses 3D models but keeps the play in the traditional 2D style, with the six button controls of the series. Special Moves are built into the input system, and throws come from pressing both light attack buttons. Two systems are new, Focus Attacks, called Saving Attack in Japan, and Ultra Moves. Each fight opens with a short cinematic exchange that varies with the characters. Six buttons, 2D play and two new systems on top still make it a good place to learn the series today.
