Going from looks alone, the selection of fighters is a bit eclectic. Again, the mix of fighters isn't what makes the game unsettling since we've seen most of these guys together in the Versus games. However, you have to wonder where the Warzard fighters come into play because they don't really fit in anywhere in the game's look; especially when you're matched up against fighters like Hauzer, who is so big he doesn't fit on the screen.
On the plus side, Fighting Evolution does include some new backgrounds to brawl in, many of which feature cameo appearances by other characters. This actually works against the game since you'll inevitably see a character in the background that you wish was playable in the game.
Sound is mostly recycled samples and tunes from other Capcom games. None of the songs are as memorable as the Street Fighter II songs, but they do what they need to do in relation to the on-screen action. Fighting Evolution also includes a new annoying announcer who you'll really wish was a playable character so you could reach out and punch him.
