Damn the faint praise! So far I've been hot or cold on the characters. Darun (aka Zangief) is fun, but Kairi is just a colorless Ryu--and that's saying something. :P Jack is Boxer with more options, quite nice! Garuda is playable but I'm not sure what he is exactly. And I haven't played him yet, but I find it amusing that in such a small cast, they have a Dan analogue in Allen, and he's even voiced by Dan's voice actor. : D ... Say did you know that "Exodus" is a character from the prequel, Fighting Layer, and apparently survives in EX Layer as a musical theme?

if they'd kept the exodus character in I'd have to keep playing!

I do when there's a story or a world or something to grab on to, but there's not toooo much of that here.

Yeah, it's kind of funny how the entire story for a character is a single screen with some text that shows up at the end. It's actually nice not having to fight a boss though. ; )

I prefer real in-person opponents but I also spend a lot of time in Practice and Arcade mode. I’ve played stuff like Soul Caliber DC a lot in its massive one player mode but in the end I feel cheated by mediocre fighting wrapped in glitz. I’d rather play Super Turbo by myself than grind for points to unlock silly hats. One exception might be Street Fighter EX on PlayStation since that had a crazy awesome practice mode, IIRC, even though the game was lame.

Arika developed Street Fighter EX as well as Fighting EX Layer, and they did put something pretty neat in the practice mode here: you can set it to what it called "Kumite" mode, and face random opponents in endless fights at the difficulty level of your choice. They all take place on the training stage, but otherwise it's pretty much all I need in a fighting game, mode-wise; ever since I came across a mode like that in DOA5, it's felt weirder and weirder to me that more console fighting games *don't* have one. Virtua Fighter and Tekken do, and I guess that's a big reason why they're my most-played series at the moment. You can do something similar in a lot of SNK's console port training modes (and with randomized stages!), but usually not at a very challenging difficulty level.
