My favorite fighter! by Hisui on March 8, 2009

Yes yes, Street Fighter is awesome and stuff. Yes, it is. But personally, I prefer Samurai Shodown/Samurai Spirits. The concept of the special attacks, the Asian theme of the game and the graphic style appeals a lot to me and I'm sure it will do to you too.
Although I'd say that all of the Samurai Shodown games are really good, I recommend this over them all. Samurai Shodown V can be described as a "best of game" of some sorts - Featuring astounding 28 (!!) characters in total. Almost all of the old characters are in and some new are introduced, too. With 28 characters, there's one for every taste.
I really can't say a lot about this game except for "Play it!" - The Samurai Shodown concept once again doesn't fail to entertain, the graphics and the sound are pretty sweet and 28 characters wait for you, so what could go wrong?
Go and enjoy.
PS: Make sure to download this version in order to get all the bloodfesty goodness of the finishing moves.
