The making of Samurai Shodown
- r00fus 10y agoAs a big fan of SF2, this was one of my favorite PvP 2D fighting games. Had advanced features like parries, missile deflection, crawling, and variable arena width (big playability issue, but the pixelization got pretty bad at wider angles). Was amazed relatively noone knew about this gem at the time.
- FroshKiller 10y agoI don't think the first Samurai Shodown had parries. Pretty sure that was introduced in the sequel. But if you got unarmed, you could catch your opponent's weapon and throw them!
- jungletek 10y agoThanks for this, wouldn't have seen it otherwise. Loved this series, it had great atmosphere and style, with gorgeous graphics and tight gameplay. A classic Neo-Geo title.
- martimatix 10y agoIt's good to know why Genan Shiranui disappeared after the first game. He was my favourite character. I felt so much nostalgia reading this interview.
