Summary

They tried, they really did.

The Good

Overall graphics, sound, control, extras, the music (especially the music), and the package design (especially the CD print, which has all of the fighter standing in a circle looking up at you).

The Bad

Control could've been tighter, background gimmicks totally missing except for Blood's stage, and the resolution could've used a good once over with the Konami 101-color dither technique (used in Snatcher), and some of the perspective is awkward. Also, Ryo is selectable right off the bat, which leaves no mystery to find him.

The Bottom Line

It shows how the Sega CD was going to be the killer system at one time, but a 1994 release and a hurried feeling overall . . . well, maybe many gamers may not notice till it's pointed out. However, bottomline, it is good.
