Samurai Shodown Colt Game you can't escape from!!!

Ever since company SNK has diminished, These games like Samurai Shodown has become the most valuable collectible of all time. Although most gamers who like fighting games, dislike the Samurai Shodown series, they are really missing out! Samurai Shodown started it all right after STREET FIGHTER. I have never seen anything so "Awesome" and spectacular graphics come to play on all Video Game systems. I wished that SNK stayed with Playstaion that way fans like myself could have collected them all instead of jumping to one system to another just to get all the Samurai Shodown series. Samurai Shodown has plenty of cool moves, improved levels of play, and great story lines for each character. Although it may seem quite easy, it still leaves you satisfied that you could slice someone up with a sharp sword and spend the rest of your day feeling Great! ITS A MUST BUY! Once you purchase it keep it under your bed. Someday this game will be worth a lot of money.

I liked Samurai Shodown 3, but it was a bit slow. Loading and in the action. The movements are cool, some neat fighting styles, but it can get annoying when you are playing and it does a kind of "Matrix" slow mo in the middle of the action. I think the graphics could have been clearer too, but SS has always been a bit grainy for systems. But, I still liked it!

This could have been better...

I'll sum it up quickly as I can.

THE GOOD THINGS ABOUT THIS GAME:>

It's a visually attractive 2D fighter, like all the Shodown games are;

It follows the Shodown tradition of very well-designed characters, many of whom are based upon actual Japanese historical figures;

Not only are nearly all the character voices present, the original arcade version's music has apparently been redone completely, using live instruments! There are even a couple tracks that weren't on the arcade soundtrack at all. It's very impressive, and it might be worth it to buy the game just for that, since a soundtrack for the PS version was never released, as far as I know...

You get all the bamboo slicing, cherry tree chopping, lantern breaking, torso halving and artery spraying you could want in a Samurai Shodown game.

THE BAD THINGS:

It's loading all the time, and there is no shortcut option to bypass these lengthy waits;

Many frames of animation are missing...it's most noticeable in the characters' pre- and post-fight animations, some of which have been abridged to the point of incomprehensibiliy;

The voices, although present, suffer from low sample rates and are very muffled;

Personally, I wish there were more characters. I think I was spoiled by Street Fighter Zero III.

IN A NUTSHELL:

The music rules. And hey, it's Samurai Shodown. But the loading times are dispicable. And Samurai Shodown III is no substitute for the original, which was never released on US Playstations.
