Review: Girl Fight (PS3)

Review by Matt S. 

Exhibit A: Dead or Alive. A game that features rather lovely ladies (and men, but no one really pays any attention to them, do they?) wearing rather... lovely... costumes beating the living bejeebus out of one another.

Dead or Alive is a popular franchise. I get that. It sells well and I can certainly appreciate another developer looking at the success of Dead or Alive, figuring out that it's the women that makes people buy this game over the likes of Street Fighter or Tekken, and deciding to build a game to capitalise on that popularity.

So enter exhibit B: Girl Fight. A game that features random ladies (and no men, removing the stuff from Dead or Alive that no one cared about) wearing random costumes and beating the living bejeebus out of one another.
