Ah, fighting games. How can a genre be so incredibly enjoyable, yet utterly frustrating at the same time?

Holy halibut, Batman! Bargain Gamer has a new video review out! That's right, this is BG's second video review. Check it out after the jump!

I love RPGs. If every other genre of game disappeared over night but there were still RPGs, then I would be mostly content, as I can and have wasted weeks of my life playing some of the lengthier RPGs to completion. This is also one of my greatest frustrations as a game reviewer, as the amount of time necessary to complete and properly review a RPG of any length makes it difficult to review a lot of the ...
