FIRST OFF THIS GAME HAS BEEN RENAMED PROJECT JUSTICE FOR ITS AMERICAN RELEASE. SOME OF YOU MIGHT KNOW IT BETTER AS RIVAL SCHOOLS III!!! IT IS THE BEST FIGHTING GAME OUT THE BARNONE, YOUVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT. WHILE IVE ONLY PLAYED THE JAPANEESE VERSION IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THE AMERICAN VERSION IS EXACTLY THE SAME. I HIGH RECOMEND THIS GAME TO ANY SOULCALIBUR, BUSHIDO BLADE FANS WHO HAVE A LITTLE SENSE OF HUMOR. EACH CHARACTERIN THE GAME HAS A THEME, HENCH THEIR SPECIAL MOVES ARE A REFLECTION OF THAT. FOR EXAMPLE, THEIR IS A BASEBALL PLAYER WHO WHEN TAGED WITH ANOTHER FIGHTER WILL ENTER THE GAME UPON THE FIGHT DOING A CERTAIN MOVE AND HIT THE OPPONENT 20 FREAKIN FEET. YOU ALWAYS SELCT THREE FIGHTERS TO A TEAM AND THEIR A OVER 30 FIGHTERS ONCE YOU UNLOCK ALL OF THEM. UNFORTUNETELY OR FORTUNETELY DEPENDING ON HOW YOU LOOK AT IT, YOU WILL SOMETIMES HAVE TO FIGHT OPPONENTS WHO YOU HAVENT UNLOCKED YET, THEY TEND TO BE MORE DIFFICULT.ANYWAY THIS GAME IS GREAT AND NEVER LOOSES ITS FUN, THEIR ARE SO MANY WAYS TO PLAY. TRADITIONAL ARCADE MODE, STORY MODE, FREE MORE(UNLIMTED CONTINUES), TOURNEMENT, AND IT IS THE FIRST FIGHTING GAME WITH LEAGUE PLAY. INCREDIBLE IS ALL I CAN SAY!!!!!!!!

Too much fun!!!!

I played this game once and I was hooked. I played it at a store and I played it on a playstation system. The sad thing about it was that it was the japanese version, so no copies were out to buy. The game is fun and it kept my attention the whole time. The game moved fast which is good because it keeps you on your toes unlike other fighting games. But overall this game is worth the money and the time:)

Be aware old school street fighting masters, the generation of fighting has arrived. Starting out with the marvel vs. capcom series, a new fighting generation of partners and teams instead of the same person fighting twice has developed. Name turning into this virtual reality 3-D fighter with explosions left and right with all-out special effects. If you were all ways a fighting fan, trust me, this is your type of game.

BURN, JUSTICE ACADEMY, BURN!

"Project Justice" is the DC version of the Arcade hit "Burning Justice Academy" from Capcom Japan. This here is among the best streetfighting games to combine fantasy fighter moves with easy-to-do combos. It's a chapter of the Streetfighter EX series with a candy-colored Marvel vs. Capcom-like shell. All characters are simple to play and benefit from great animation and fast movements. Ever had trouble doing Capcom's famous air juggles? Well, this game enables characters to do air juggles more easily because anyone knocked in the air takes quite a while to heal back.

My favorite PJ characters are as follows...

1. Kyosuke- He can be considered the Ken of the game. His wavey projectile is short range, but his best attacks are the ones that send his foes up to the air, like Lightning Uppercut and his somersault kick. The hyper version of the Lightning Uppercut can also be an effective launcher for an air juggle. Plus, you've got to love his sleek fashion statement.

2. Hinata- The cutest character in the entire game, decked out in a fuku, hair-band, short skirt and a backpack (Geez, she fights while carrying books on her back?), Hinata is all about close range/mid-air fighting. She has a miniature fireball that can score multiple hits and spinning fists for her anti-air. Her best attack, though, is her gyrating kick that sears in fire if executed with the strong kick button. Beware; Hinata's hypers need her to get real close to her foes.

3. Shoma- The angry baseball boy, Shoma holds his best attribute with a long-range baseball bat, making him among the very few with a definite weapon. The bat gives him access to launch opponents into the air, plus it can knock opponents a few feet away from him should they be too stressful at the moment. Shoma also whips mean baseballs that cover more distance than other projectiles in the game. Because of his terrific range, though, Shoma has problems when fighting up close. His hyper combos are fairly good (though Hundred Balls is much quicker in the air), and his double team (where you send the foe flying to his slugger) gives lots of damage and breathing space at once.

4. Roberto- Definitely a favorite character to PJ fans, Roberto the soccer jock is all about kicking. His combo launcher covers a wide angle and his kicks and punches are fast, making him the most well-rounded of the Gorin classmates. Roberto's soccer ball is a healthy tactic, but try to use his regular kicks, punches and headbutts to put the most pressure on your foes. Also use any of Roberto's throws; all are strong and keep the opponent far off. His flying anti-air bicycle kick is hard to describe, but it's a great way to confuse your opponents, so use it sparingly when you have the chance! Roberto's hypers can be close or long range, but use them after you've trapped your foe in a quick combo chain.

That's all for now. Go play "Project Justice" after school, and you won't think having an education is such a bore.

A Superb, but Under-rated Fighting Game

_Project Justice_, aka _Moero! Justice Gakuen_ is an exceptionally entertaining game. Sure, it's not as deep as Street Fighter 3: 2nd Impact or Virtua Fighter 3, but it's by no means a button masher. As the sequel to Capcom's Rival Schools (PSX, Arcade), this is Capcom's very best 3D fighter. The backgrounds are absolutely beautiful, beating out DoA2 and Soul Calibur by a mile, but the characters aren't quite as detailed. Then again, you can have up to four characters on-screen at a time (of six that are loaded in memory), compared to SC's 2 and DoA2's three (of four), so it works out nicely.

The game engine is easy to get the hang of -- although there are super jumps, chain/"textbook" combos, and the like, Project Justice really has a lot of personality and uniqueness -- this also applies to the characters you can choose from: from Zaki, the chain-wielding masked lady to Vatsu, an imposter of the "hero" (Batsu) with claws and a wicked grin to good ol' Hideo, an older teacher that seems to have trained with Ryu of SF fame -- all are unique and exceptionally well done.

The only real downer is the lack of the *awesome* board game mode that allowed you to make your own character in the Japanese version. Capcom USA decided that it wasn't worth the time/effort to translate this "mini-game" with all its nuances. Oh well. For twenty bucks, though, Project Justice can't be beat!

Come On Baby!

The Rival Schools series has a unique place in video game history. It's never been considered a hit, but it has a huge...following (this is the video game world's Buffy The Vampire Slayer). Project Justice is the third game in the series, but the second released in the US and storywise is the direct sequel to the original Playstation game. This game is very very good...the story mode in this game is great. The story is a very intense one, suprises are plentiful, and if anything it makes you want to fight more when you learn that the characters actually have some reason to fight other than "to be the strongest."...These characters are all very very cool and very original (well OK, some are more interesting than others but still). Capcom has probably done it's best work on this game in terms of characters (c'mon, name ONE new character from the SF3 series). The R & D team must have worked long hours to ensure that this is the ONLY game where you can play as a guy in a speedo, a black guy with blonde hair who speaks Japanese, and beat up people with a violin-wielding girl. What's more, you can have them all on the same team! The Gameplay itself is great. The new Team-up Counter and Party-Up techniques add the flash, and the gorgeously refined fighting engine brings the skill. There aren't many modes (5 in all), but Story mode and all the secret characters will keep you busy. The graphics are really crisp and sharp. The backgrounds are well thought out if not entirely amazing, but they get the job done. The music is great too ... Overall, if you can find it, and if you're a fighting fan and/or a teen (trust me, you'll appreciate the Story mode alot more if you are), give Project Justice a shot. ...

The best Dreamcast fighting game is here!! Soul what???

Rival Schools: Project Justice is great! I didn't think that this game would be this good because I was not impressed with the PS1 version. But boy was I wrong!! This game is tight! The graphics are clean, the characters are cool and origional, the story mode is decent and the extras add replay value to the title.

I once owned both this and Soul Calibur and I must say that this is better that Soul Crap...er I mean Calibur. The moves are more along the lines of Street Fighter but not played out and overdone. Almost all the characters are playable and entertaining (unlike any Street Fifgter game) and the game itself is a joy to play.

On a bad note my only turn-off is that the last boss has a demon posessed sword (was that a hot idea in 1999, 2000?). This, in my opinion, is a tired and weak excuse for a last boss, it reminds me of the lame and seriously dark (and demonic) story line of Soul Calibur.

If it were not for that lack of origionality in designing a last boss then this game would be one of the greatest of all time. As it is its just great and worth it to any Dreamcast owner.

Capcom has adapted to the SNK's fighting style and Namco's 3D graphic to create this game. Not you could choose many characters in this game, gameplay and game control is EXCELLENT! Team Combo could CRACK you up sometimes!! This made you want to choose diff characters to form a team!! Replay value is very high!! Bottom line, nothing could beat the price for this game!!
