One of the biggest announcements from The Game Awards this past week was SEGA’s reveal of multiple IP revivals. Jet Set Radio, Crazy Taxi, Golden Axe, Shinobi and Streets of Rage were all confirmed to…
Powerstone 2 was basically a Super Smash Bros-style 4-player fighting party-game but with the 3D-platformer gameplay of a Wrestlemania game. Instead of Smash Balls, there were a set of “Stones” where you’d get an ultimate if you got 3 of them. Very fun party/fighting game, much like Smash.
I was a big fan of Power Stone
That’s Capcom. It was a Dreamcast flagship game but resurrecting it still isn’t up to Sega.
Isn’t that a Capcom IP?
I’ve seen the anime as a kid but I keep hearing about the game. Is it a classic that I should be playing?

I remember loving power stone play sessions as a kid, but I hardly remember the game. Just remember loving it.
I tried to play it recently and I did not have much fun. Maybe it’s because it’s single play? Maybe it’s because it didn’t age well.

The destructive/interactive environments were very cool for the time. Also loved the art style.
It’s a classic yes. It’s been re-released very sparsely though.
It’s kindof like a smash-bros like game with a simplified combat style and weapons, especially the second game where they added 4-player gameplay
