Even better are the ultra-deep references to behind-the-scenes stories from development.
Seeing Strider and Shinobi meet Virtua Fighter's Kage and react to their different interpretations of ninjutsu is a laugh, as is seeing Phoenix Wright get used to working for the demonically possessed Tekken champion, Kazuya Mishima.
“Sharp dialogue writing really makes the most of the unique pairings. Simply seeing, say, Street Fighter's Chun-Li talk to Yakuza's Kiryu is the reward. The collection of excuses used to unite this army of heroes through time and space is often laughed off by the characters themselves, emphasizing that the mystery that unites the motley crew for a turn-based strategy game ultimately doesn't matter. As a way of reveling in gaming history, PXZ2 is just the dose of nostalgia you'd want, though it doesn’t make the strategy action surrounding it any less shallow.Just like in the original, Project X Zone 2 brings together a variety of series’ characters, from Street Fighter and Yakuza to lesser-known franchises like Sakura Wars and Summon Night, by way of a story that's as best described as perfunctory. Project X Zone 2 overloads you with truckloads of good-natured celebration, piling dozens of classic characters from Namco, Sega, and Capcom all into one sprawling package of tactical gameplay. Like funnel cake or any other sweet treat, fan service can be satisfying, but if there's not much going on underneath its appeal wears off quickly.
