SAMURAI SHODOWN PC SERIES

As you saw in the previous sections of the review, it took between 8-10 minutes to get in to one fight. This is where the game is probably going to suffer most on the PC. And an argument could be made that this is the better of the two depending on your view of the DBZ art. Artistically and grahpically, this is only beaten by Dragonball FighterZВ as far as graphical fidelity goes. The backgrounds all feel like the characters belong in the same world. The game is extremely well optimized.Д®verything in the game has a unifying touch. I was able to play in 4K with out any issues, so if your machine has lower specs, you should have no problems at lower resolutions. When playing offline, the game runs extremely smooth on my rig, which is an I7-8700K, 16gb Ram, 2080 machine. The characters all look fantastic, but it is the environments and UI that all add the extra touch of polish. IвЂ™ve touched on the graphics a bit, but I want to discuss them a bit further here. If you are able to connect, though, you are generally going to win, in fashion. Your вЂњsuperвЂќ move is a one shot deal per match. Special moves are powerful, but rarely decide a fight. The title is always about the balance of attacks and dodges and positioning. That вЂњHigh ScoreвЂќ rush sets in and you keep pushing to get further. You choose a character and fight as many AI fighters as possible. The arcade modes are where I enjoyed myself the most. The training mode isnвЂ™t as robust as I would like, but it has more than enough information to get you going. It makes perfect since, you areВ slicing or crushing your opponent with weapons. (Second Match at 10:36 PM вЂ“ got through two somewhat laggy fights before a disconnect).ДЇights are short and to the point as damage is extremely high. It wasnвЂ™t about combos in those games as much as the mental game and Samurai Shodown has the same feeling. The latter had a great counter system that made every match a game of reads. The former was so grounded that learning a character made you feel incredible as you tore into opponents with your knowledge of their particular fighting style. GameplayДЄs stated previously, Virtua FighterВ and Dead or AliveВ are at the top of my fighting game list. They play the same, but they look fashionably old school. Some of the skins call back to their earlier appearances and have a pixelated low poly look. The characters also have a great deal of detail and all are wonderful to look at. After playing just a game or two with any character, you can generally get a feel for the character and hold your own at low levels. The game has depth and feels a bit more like a mental battle instead of a game where you have to learn every combo. No character feels like a clone of another and I appreciate this a great deal. In addition, a wide variety of other characters have been added all with unique playstyles. So the Epic Game Store is where I got my first taste of the game and I was very happy to see all the characters from the original that I remembered. IвЂ™ve watched the game played on console but have not tested it there myself. On the Epic Game Store, you get a huge roster with all of the DLC characters that have been released on console.

IвЂ™ll be honest, I havenвЂ™t followed the game heavily since those early days, leaning more towards Dead or Alive and Virtua Fighter.В Now with the PC release, IвЂ™ve had a chance to dig in to the game and I must say, besides a couple of little issues, it brings back those old feelings. It stood up next to games like Street FighterВ and Mortal CombatВ and due to the large sprite work and interesting weapon mechanics became a go-to for my group of friends.

SAMURAI SHODOWN PC SERIES

Samurai Showdown has been a series that I enjoyed a great deal since I first played the original on an SNK machine in the arcade. With that preamble out of the way, let us get in to talking about the actual game itself. For reference, I have opponent rank set to anyone, region to all, and connection speed to any. I decided while I wait to get in another game IвЂ™ll work on this review and timestamp where I find another match.

I am mentioning this because I have been in the ranked matchmaking section of Samurai Shodown for PC for about 15 minutes. It is currently 10:26 PM CST as I start to write this review.
