Kung Fu fighting with Invincible Tiger 0

With the resounding success of the PS exclusive Ragdoll Kung Fu, it was just a matter of time before another kung fu-inspired game will be released in the market.

And that game is Invincible Tiger: The Legend of Han Tao. The game play of Invincible Tiger is different from Ragdoll Kung Fu though. The former is more of a cross between the old Kung Fu game from the old NES system and the Genesis classic Rolling Thunder. The player fights hordes of enemies, which hearkens back to those classic martial arts movies of the 70’s.

Invincible Tiger is the first 3D XBLAtitle and will feature beautifully rendered environments. The 70’s kung fu vibe is further enhanced by the cool 70’s inspired soundtrack. There are also solo and online coop play, Endurance and Time Trial modes for maximum fun.

Get Invincible Tiger: The Legend of Han Tao for 1200 MS points.

2D fighters slug their way to Xbox Live 0

In the realm of fighting games, 2D fighters are still quite popular. These games — well represented by the seminal Street Fighter — have endured the arrival of the 3D fighter (with its great graphics) and have been able to hold its own because of its great gameplay.

Now, Xbox Live fans will get to play not one but two fighting games this month as two great titles are released. First off is an actual Street Fighter game. Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix is, without a doubt, a great overhauling of a classic game. This new release will have updated redrawn art that takes advantage of 1080P HD clarity. It will also have widescreen support and will feature newly remixed music. It will also support both local and online multiplayer so hone those skills fast! In addition to this there will also be a new Remixed Mode that will see new techniques given to your favorite characters. Of course, old-school purists will enjoy the original Turbo Mode, which is also included. Street Fighter II HD Remix will be sold for 800 Microsoft points, which is actually a 33 percent discount off the original price. But it’s only up to the end of the month so hurry!

Another fighter that has been released is Garou: Mark of The Wolves. This game has roots in another seminal fighting game Fatal Fury. Rock Howard, the son of FF’s Geese Howard, is one of the 12 characters. Garou: Mark of The Wolves is available on Xbox Live Arcade for 800 points.
