beautifully done. way to wake up that dead SS franchise SNK. now is this available for ps3 yet??? i been anticipating this for years now....waiting for the console release...
I don't like SS:EoD.Mediocre game....I hope someday this saga follow the way of SF4/SSF4 or MK9.3D graphics 2D gameplay.The first Samurai Showdown was one of my favourite fighting games. (16 bits era)
@MrNinjafreak Yeah I was really hoping this was going to be out for the wii too. I was hoping the same for Guilty Gear 2, Blazblue, and Street Fighter 4 ;_;
@UzumakiSonic619 yeah i know its been out for about a week or so. a guy at game stop tole me the only way to get galford was to reserve a copy of the game. that's lame if u ask me.
The game is still coming out, from a different publisher now. Xseed is bringing it out as Samurai Shodown Sen. Ignition was smart to cancel it though; the game is trash.
lol well it looks fun but you have to admit they slacked on graphics. This is by no meens a top notch looking game. I almost want to see the guys from blazblue make this as another 2d version. thatd be great
gore does not matter since the biggest reason why they took out the gore in the first place was because of the frame rate drops the gore caused in the 360.
Its the extra content (namely the other playable characters and levels) that makes 360 owners tempted to buy a PS3 for it
@bean82 never have i herd of someone who gets a ps3 for ninja gaiden,,, and all i got to say is ninja blade, and plz oh plz dont make the mistake of saying that ninja gaiden is better,, if your a real ninja fan you will know better,
Japanese Samurai, Fighting games Are Awsome Like Tekken 6... Tekken ^ Will be released on Oct. something... =). btw where can i buy this game cuz i try to look on Game stop and they dont have it
Duh! Who said Soul Calibur was SNK? I compared this game TO Soul Calibur because they are both weapon-based 3-D fighting games. Did you also tell the person that compared this game to Tekken that Tekken is not SNK as well?
Actually Samurai Showdown Wuz first brought to Super Nintendo.....its the original sword fighting game b4 tekken and SC.....I jus hope that the transition from 2-D to 3-D iz smooth lol
snk fucks this game up by making it 3d... should of left it in 2d like the arcades back in the late 90's... that was the shit!!! now its a piece of shit..
this game is, NO it will fail becuz like the other 3d shodown games it failed so much, gameplay looks simple, fatalties look like they could only be done wit perfects and body parts being cut off look ugly, they even took out galford's dog, if it were kof12 graphics i might change my mind
i really hope they dont fuck this game up the old samurai showdown games were ace. hopefully they dont turn this game into some sort of shit tekken clone
Looks like more of a Soul Calibur clone; but with terrible graphics. Seems as though they are trying to peak our interest with violence. Sorry SNK/Playmore, blood and gore does not make a good fighting game. I'll stick with Street Fighter IV, Blazblue, The King of Fighters XII, Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, Samurai Shodown VI in the Anthology pack, Virtua Fighter 5, Soul Calibur IV and Tekken 6 this fall.
depends, i use to be pro 2d fighters and against 3d fighters. If this turns out being anything like virtua fighter 5 it will rule...though I doubt it will be anything like vf5 haha
Why they changed the game style from the first 3 SS games, that 3d game style (Tekken or whatever) style is not nice at all, the 2d gaming style with 3d graphics as in Street fighter 4 is the way, shame on you SNK.
They were great, but they were not SS. The highlight of the series was Samurai Shodown V Special, hardcore fans know it despite reviews. 2 is the next best, followed by 4.
4 and 5sp might as well be different games though, very different. 4 is more combo orientated.
OMG! This game is gonna be great! I hope that the perfect finishers and blood stay intact if and when it hits the states. I can't wait for this game, KOF 12, and SOUL CALIBUR 4 to come out!
The Japanese version is actually the one without blood, this time around... google "Nevada-tan" for some info regarding what started up a big furor regarding Samurai Shodown 5 Special.
Do you play V Special? I happen to be a high level player myself, would you like to have some mame matches some time? I'm a Kusaregedo/Kazuki/Mizuki master. pm me if you're interested...
You can actually wiki SS5/SS5sp. The only uncensored SS5 they have are rom-based, but you need a emulator that will play the game with out the censorship
