vinland saga characters thorkell
Simply put, this is probably the hardest fighting game ever created, and it was
designed to gobble up a
ridiculous amount of money for SNK. Returning to the cast were Ryo and Robert, and 10 other playable characters join them. The game hadn't changed much over the course of one year, and it showed. Aside
from a more plentiful cast, absolutely nothing had changed in terms of what you could do in the game. Fatal Fury Special (1993, NeoGeo)
Also appearing on: Super Nintendo (1993)
Essentially a remix of Fatal Fury 2, Special added a host of new characters that are now commonplace in many SNK games, such as Billy Kane and Art of Fighting's Ryo Sakazaki. It also let you play as the two bosses in the previous Fatal Fury games, Geese and Wolfgang Krauser. Samurai Shodown (1993, NeoGeo)
Also appearing on: Super Nintendo (1994), Genesis (1994)
Aside from Vega in the
Street Fighter series, there were no fighters in any game that bothered to use weapons of any kind. You'd think that in an "anything goes" scenario, more people would be packing some heat, right? Set in the time of feudal Japan, Samurai Shodown was the first weapons-based fighting game to hit the genre, and it was good. Real good. Technically the game was a visual masterpiece. It used the scaling and zooming effects that were first used in Art of Fighting, and you were treated to beautifully created backdrops and huge, well-animated characters such as Haohmaru and Earthquake.
Well, honestly speaking, no. It was about none of that. Overthinking anything that AGK does would be no different than waxing philosophical for the reason behind Patrick Star's Hawaiian shorts. There's no pretense behind AGK's actions, and as long as the viewer doesn't graft any grandiose ideas onto it, it could be enjoyed for what it truly is: schlocky, over-the-top deaths with shounen characters that had the stylistic sensibilities of a seinen but the emotional authority of a 15-year-old's wet dream.
And you know what? That's just fine. I sure had fun watching it. A silly thing, flailing about with no sense of purpose or integrity. A good ole dumb time to be had, IQ-reducing, but worth every popped brain cell. Reviewer’s Rating: 3 What did you think of this review? Nice 0
