This review is from: The Last Blade 2: Heart of the Samurai (Video Game)

For one of the final games of the original SNK run and one of the few games that SNK touted as a 2-D masterpiece, it is a sure-fire hit. The resolution is top-notch, the characters are truly unique re-imaginations of actual figures from that period of ancient Japan, and the gameplay mechanics are phenomenal. If this was to be the direction of the Samurai Shodown series, it was a wise move to make. If you are a fighting game enthusiast and you don't own this game, you had better get with it, and now!

This review is from: The Last Blade 2: Heart of the Samurai (Video Game)

This game is pretty fun, but in general I feel that it's kinda lackluster. I really enjoyed the first Last Blade which I have on the PSone. But this doesn't really do much for me as a good enough sequel. If you've never played Last Blade, then I can recommend Last Blade 2, since it is a very well developed game. It's definitely a good clean alternative to Samurai Spirits, acting as a very good weapons-based fighter.
