Today Capcom has finally released Super Puzzle Fighter 2: Network Battle for mobile phones. The game has been released at arcades and consoles, the classic puzzle lets two players compete head-to-head versus battles against each other via cellular network. Super Puzzle Fighter 2: Network Battle characters are from two of Capcom's fighting games Street Fighter and Darkstalkers.

When you start a game, you will get the option to choose from one of eight different characters including Ryu and Felicia, each with unique statistics that effect gameplay such as the type and combinations of blocks that fall. Additionally, players can see how their skills stack up with the rest of the pack via the game's online leaderboard showcasing wins and losses.

The game takes place over the course of three 3-minute matches in which players have to maneuver their pairs of gems by combining enough of one color to remove the blocks from play with a breaker block. When a played removes gems from his side their opponents bin gets blasted with Counter Gems. This creates a back and forth gameplay experience as both players attempt to keep their bin from getting over filled while simultaneously trying to fill up their opponent's bin. Once one of the players or CPU gems fill over the top that player is K.O.'d with a finishing move animation.

This is one of the best multiplayer puzzle games to have been released while it was in arcades as well as the version that game out for Gameboy Advance. While it is still up in the air, how it will translate to mobile phones having an online leaderboard is good motivation to get to the top of the list.
