One of the most popular categories is the fighting game. Like the name implies a fighting game is where two or more people choose their characters then fight against each other using the different mechanics of the game. It is an age old category that used to be nothing but two 2D sprites doing cheesy attacking actions toward each other until one lost. To this day there are a lot of fighting games, though not are all very good. However recently one of the most popular fighting game franchises came out with a game, Marvel vs Capcom 3 Fate of Two Worlds
Like the name implies Marvel vs Capcom 3 puts some of the most popular Marvel characters, such as Iron Man, Hulk, Wolverine, and Captain America, against some of the most popular characters from the Capcom Franchise, such as Ryu, Chris Redfield, Dante, and Amateratsu. Fighting games that follow arcade style game-play, meaning having six different attacking buttons and the movement pad or stick, usually are hard unless you spend the extra money (usually anywhere from $50-$100+ for an arcade style fighting controller, but you do get a more realistic arcade feel). Marvel vs Capcom 3, in all its brilliance, made a simplified control scheme, using a light, medium, and heavy attack button, along with an extra "Simple Mode" for beginners. (The usual fighting style controls, are light, medium, heavy punch along with light, medium, and heavy kick, and some other buttons that also allow you to do special techniques, YIKES) Along with being easy and fun to use, the graphics, gameplay and arcade mode are all beautiful and simple to use. In addition to that there is an online mode, which allows you to fight over wireless internet against friends or complete strangers.
Marvel vs Capcom 3 Fate of two world, is for the Playstation 3, or Xbox 360 and costs about $60 plus tax. I would give it a 9.5/10 because it is really fun and easy to use and there are so many characters.
