Toribash: Bubble Madness

The first fighting game I've posted about is "Toribash: Violence Perfected." The tagline makes it obvious that kids should not play it. On the other hand, I know a lot of 12-year-old girls who play Mortal Kombat and DoA. I also know a lot of 8-year-old boys who love playing Halo, but I won't get into that....

I strongly suggest you try Toribash. The characters are basically glorified stick figures, but the game has a sandbox mode, in which you can simply play around with the bodies and even make your own martial arts flick. The actual fighting seems to be more strategic than most button-mashing competitors. I have not tried the game out, but I'm downloading it, and I recommend you do the same.
