Searched and didn't find anything, burn with fire if old.

Girl Fight allows players to choose from an array of sexy fighters to battle their way out of The Foundation, a shadowy, scientific organization looking to weaponize the psionic fighting abilities of the cast of gorgeous, all-female fighters.

With unlimited funding and no moral or ethical compass, The Foundation collects its test subjects from all around the world, often abducting and plugging women into their virtual construct known as The Mainframe. To make it back to reality, the women must utilize their fighting and psionic abilities in an all-out battle for survival.

There is a trailer on the PS Store, but this one is um, deeper.

This looks hilariously bad and offensively bad at the same time.

Dibs on the OT.

day 1

 

[Wario64]

And X360. It's been delayed for a good while

 

[Tamanon]

Working on the misogynistic image, I see!

 

[CSX]

So surprise showing at EVO ?

 

[AuthenticM]

fuck yeah bro

 

[FrostuTheNinja]

This still isn't out?

 

[kassatsu]

This is really old, and long delayed. I played it at PAX East last year.

 

[jwk94]

Doesn't look too bad. I like the power up system.

 

[Crimsonlink]

I will buy this from the bargin bin. Or wait for a PS+ edition lol.

 

[Orpheus Telos]

I didn't even remeber this game until my friend messaged me last night saying it looked terrible.

 

[Greenzxy]

Is this a DOA knock off? And let me guess the girls are all white right?

 

[Casimir]

Sigh, I thought gaming had moved passed the 'Bikini Karate Babes', phase.

 

[AppleSmack]

Do they at least have Dead or Alive boob physics? You can't have a game like this without that.

 

[BY2K]

Still see GAF in the logo.

Also, MICROPROSE.

EDIT: Wait, Microproge!? The hell is this?

 

[Nags]

And X360. It's been delayed for a good while

Oh snap.
Title update?! Maybe not worth it...

 

[Brofield]

A game not to play around the lady friend

Spoiler

tfw no gf/day 1

 

[HaRyu]

Is this a DOA knock off? And let me guess the girls are all white right?

I think one of them is asian.

Man this looks horrible. Even if taken as just purely fan service, the girls are pretty generic looking.

 

[RobertMuldoon]

And I thought Dead or Alive was bad...

 

[methane47]

looks like the stole the Tekken battle system. Animations look very similar

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Obviously old. Probably not coming out.

 

[Jerkapotamus]

And I thought Dead or Alive was bad...

Honestly, there didn't look to be anything that was particularly worse than in most fighting games (MK, Soul Calibur, DOA, etc).

 

[DiscoJer]

Micro Prose? That's a strange use of a dead brand mostly known for flight sims and strategy games.

 

[gribbles]

I'll stick to DoA for my TnA thanks very much.

 

[Wynnebeck]

Is it too late to ask for a next gen Rumble Rose? That game was hilariously fun.

 

[Rhazer Fusion]

This doesn't look too bad, especially for a non-Japanese developed fighter and I'll probably give it a chance if it is priced properly. Hopefully, it turns out decent. I rather see developers trying stuff like this sometimes instead of nothing but generic shooters and FPS's all the time.

 

[Grizzlyjin]

Whatever happened to Rumble Roses?

 

[Mako_Drug]

Looks marginally better than DoA at least.

 

[Savitar]

Looks like a sub par last gen fighter.

Also eight only fighters? Ha.

 

[Nags]

My first time hearing about it, but yeah, I suppose it is old. But they did put up a new trailer for it on PSN yesterday.

 

[Pimpbaa]

I'm the kinda guy who likes scantily clad girls in everything, but this look boring.

Looks marginally better than DoA at least.

No it doesn't. DOA5+ on Vita looks better than this.

 

[weevles]

Looks DOA-ish yes.

Honestly, it doesn't look especially bad, just boring/unoriginal overall.

The character who can do the Predator-like cloak is an interesting idea though...

 

[erlim]

Itagaki must be so honored.

 

[HyperHip]

Totally forgot about this game, been looking for some 3D poverty.

 

[A Human Becoming]

I'd rather have a game based on Boyfights.

 

[Ultimadrago]

This still isn't out?

I still remember the first thread about it waaaay back. Forgot it existed.

 

[Rhazer Fusion]

Looks marginally better than DoA at least.

Hehe, ummm....no.


Honestly though, I don't think the animation or transitions are too bad in Girl Fight. I might even say they look better than a few other popular fighters out there.

 

[JerryThePredator]

This is developed by the fine folks that gave us Spartacus.

I have faith.

Wait, no I don't.

 

[Nags]

Never too old for breast milk.

 

[Rhazer Fusion]

Wait, no I don't.

Oh really? Lol, I will still try it though.

[BadAss2961]

Was hoping for a side-scrolling beat'em up.

 

[Trike]

What the hell? A game featuring women only that isn't demeaning and features a fully fleshed out story? You guys are focusing too much on the skimpy clothing. Olympic athletes wear little clothing because it makes them very aerodynamic. These fighters need everything they have if they want to escape the mysterious "The Foundation". Look at the quote from the OP, and I dare you to tell me it is misogynistic and not full of suspense and intrigue.

Wow, psionic powers, fighting, shadowy science organization, and fighting for survival? I underlined, bolded, and italicized some of the more intriguing story info. Who is the "The Foundation"? What is "The Mainframe? Why do people think video games are just for horny boys? Why are the abducting people? So many questions that need top must be answered. I think I speak for everyone when I say "Sign me up!"

They should totally pay me for PR now

"abducting and plugging"

eurgh

 

[krioto]

the cover looks good

 

[Freezasaurus]

What system is this on? PS2 you say?

 

[JerryThePredator]

wiiUlookingouttheRainyWindow.gif

Yeah, the WiiU has actual good games scheduled to show up on the eshop in the next year.

 

[Trike]

"abducting and plugging"

eurgh

in four words you outdid my entire post. fuck

 

[dreamfall]

The GT video said both XBLA and PSN.

The guy describing the story- hilariously ridiculous. Psionic powers and the Foundation!

 

[CamHostage]

LTTP indeed...

I thought for sure this game was canceled since I hadn't heard anything more about it since its 2012 release plan came and went (and wasn't this game delisted from Xbox.com a while ago? and didn't former publisher Majesco nearly file for bankrupcy again?), but according to the KFF Facebook page, it's still on and due this Fall.

But whatever, it's cheese for the rats, I'm well past the "this one is for the boys!" part of the game market, we should be much more concerned about the bad tropes in games meant to be for everybody. If hooters sell, make a few games all about the hooters, that's fine.
