Melty Blood: Actress Again Current Code feels like a game that came out five years too late. It’s fun and interesting to play for a while, but French Bread has better games that you can play right now for a similar price.

Melty Blood: Actress Again Current Code is a well-crafted title that highlights the best features of Japanese style arcade fighters.
