First fighting video game with equal number of male fighters and of female fighters?[edit]

Rotten Tomatoes[edit]

Should Rotten Tomatoes still be a reference for the articles about movies on Wikipedia? It seems like the gap between what the score they and the audience give to movies is sometimes huge. 1.55.216.23 (talk) 10:07, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

And then there's the opposite: "Sure, it may be a sensitive, nuanced portrayal of the human condition, but how many cars explode into gigantic fireballs ?" SinisterLefty (talk) 18:26, 7 October 2019 (UTC) [reply]
