[console] Final Fight re-relase with *really* cool arcade twist

Normally I wouldn't post about an arcade port to console as there's a lot of that going around and most of them are utter crap. In this case it looks like the "hd visuals" are the same smoothing nonsense that are going to look like garbage, but it's the "arcade monitor" view which may have me paying my points when it comes out. Capcom's doing a release of Final Fight and Magic Sword (heard of the latter a lot, i think positively?) as a combo package, and one of the visual modes uses the normal pixels, curves it a little to give it the arcade monitor feel and fills out the rest of a widescreen display with a "beat up" version of the bezel for the games.

I like the battle scarred take on it instead of some surgically clean border, I'll download the demo and if they manage to do it well and at a non-insane price (10 bucks or under, though i can see them trying to charge 20) I might have to pick it up. I love final fight and if magic sword is good (haven't even tried it in mame) it could be cool.
 
Magic Sword's good. It plays a lot like Black Tiger, but you had 2P simultaneous play, and picked up sidekicks as you progressed.

I used to enjoy Final Fight back in the day too.
