Fantastic fighting game! May 10, 2008
This game is great! I bought it at a local video store for like 20 bucks when I was 8 years old and I've always loved this game. It is extremely different from a good majority of the other fighting games. It involves a sort of strategy when playing it. There is two discs that contain the arcade mode and the new modes made for the ps1. The character variety is fanstastic in both terms of figthing styles, character styles, special moves, and double-team moves. You won't be disappointed and you will have endless hours of frantic fighting action and even a story line. Also you have a great soundtrack. If you have the money for this game, get it! Also, some of the characters look kind of like characters from the Ace Attorney series. The main character and the baseball player look like Phoenix and Apollo (I don't remember the two guys names, but just putting that out there because Capcom did in fact make this game as well.) Overall, one of the best fighting games up there with Marvel vs. Capcom 1 and 2 and a good bit of the others.
THE. BEST. GAME. EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 April 30, 2006
This is by far the best game ever to exist on the face of this earth.
First off you got the basic disc, the Arcade version. This is the arcade-perfect translation straight to the Playstation. Here, go head to head in Arcade and Vs. modes, or take the Training mode to familiarize yourself with the true genius that is Rival Schools: United By Fate. This particular disc, being arcade-perfect and stuff, is where you can unlock all the loading artwork and endings for your viewing pleasure.
Then, you have the Evolution disc. When you get sick of just playing Rival Schools by itself, play it with a few twists. Every time you beat this, you get a rather kawaii bonus character...repeat process 24 times and you have 24 kawaii bonus characters. They do all look the same, but have different movesets, which consist of moves from other characters. For example, Koji has Roberto's soccer-ball kick move, Tiffany's jumping kick move, and I can't remember all what else. One of these bonus characters (Eri, to be more precise) even has Zangief's spinning piledriver and Final Atomic Buster from the Street Fighter games. And while you're getting your Rival School Spirit on, kicking the game's hind parts time after time, you get cute little bonus minigames, like a homerun contest, volleyball target practice, and the soccer minigame. Oh yeah...and it was either the arcade or evolution disc, not sure which, that had Tournament and League modes. This game is better than Street Fighter 3. This is the best game ever made, the best game ever to grace the universe, THE BEST GAME IN THE WORLD AND ALWAYS WILL BE. I remember back in the day doing INSANE combos with Shoma...I'd give anything to play this game again.
Next to Soul Caliber 2 in Greatest fighting game ever January 7, 2006
This game is just pure fun for anyone who enjoys a good fighting game. And unlike other fighting games, it doesn't get boring after like 2 fights. With many different modes of play, lots of extras, mini games, characters, attacks, and battle stages, this game is highly addictive.
Team up with a second player to begin a fight in any mode of play. Activate your characters special moves, fury moves, team attacks, throws, and even taunts. (Yea! Sakura! ...my favorite character)
The training mode is awesome, giving you many lessons to teach you each and every tactic of the game, and then combining them into a test. Where as other fighting games give you a stationary opponet, and expect you to learn everything with no directions at all.
Great buy for any gamer.
Coolest characters: Sakura, Shoma, Natsu, Roy, Akira, and Roberto.
Great Fighting Game for all! July 23, 2003

Rival Schools:United by Fate is a great fighting game!
It's different from the usual(and boring) Street Fighter or X-men fighting games. The graphics are great and each character has his/her own unique fighting ability. Also, not only are the team-up specials amazing, they're various! They depends on the secondary player. It's not like those Street Fighter games where almost all the moves are similar. And there are lots of secret characters to choose from. A great fighting game I recomend strongly!
