Looks alot like Soul Calibur at first glance, which isn't really a bad thing.
If they can make a fighting engine that incorporates all the great things about Samurai Shodown with a 3D plane, it'll be fantastic.

Not impressed yet, but I hope it plays well, which will impress me in a 'at least they got gameplay right' kind of way.
The poke whore finally makes into a 3D game. Don't know if anyone in their right mind should be happy about that. 
Looking forward to these so called new characters as well as any 2D additions that weren't in the previous 2 arcade games.
Still would like to see Seishiro and company return someday...

As a fan of Ashura's Armada (SS64-2), I'm looking forward to this. SS64-2 proved that not only could the series be done well in the 3D plane, it may be all the better for it, because it may alone offer things that couldn't be done in 2D. Plus the guys behind SS1 and SS2 are back in the saddle for SEN, which just gives me a good deal of confidence in that factoid alone. Even if the graphics may not do anything to turn graphic hounds away from Namco's newest batch of eyecandy, I think this graphic style will be good enough. Probably will be along the lines of high-end KOF MI graphics engine (which pretty much means a PS2 and Wii port eventually).
Also, it's my experience that most people who dog the idea of SS in 3D either a) never tried it (especially AA), or b) simply played that craptacular PSX title (which was called Warrior's Rage), and thought it was fit to pass judgment on any and all attempts. All I know is that after "Rugal" introduced me to Ashura's Armada, I was certainly a believer...

That's possibly the most bizarrely nonsensical troll I've ever seen.Rade said:
Seriously, man. "Why is it so brown?" You've seen one scanned poster, which is likely color-corrected poorly, for all we know, and four hard-to-make-out screenshots on said poster.
Still, if you're going to knee-jerk bash something on sight, I guess that's as good an arbitrary choice as anything.

Predominantly from my pal, who turned me on to the game. You may remember him as "Rugal" or "Red Falcon" as he is known over at MMCafe.
But in any case, I refuse to call it "Warrior's Rage". The PSX game can have that lame subtitle, as well as it being the pariah for why most people are overly resistant to SS being in 3D.
While I have your attention, Deuce...enlighten me...did Galapagos/K2 (the ones who are working on this title, too) work on only the first two games, or did they also work on SS3, 4 and the 64 titles, as well?
Gotcha... but you do realize, it's not even remotely accurate, right? It just seems to me to be needlessly confusing. I just label them as follows:CyberAkuma said:
Samurai Shodown 64
Samurai Shodown 64: Warriors Rage (accurate to the actual title screen)
Samurai Shodown: Warriors Rage (or Warriors Rage 2)
They did SS3, I know. SS4, possibly... I don't recall. I'm not certain offhand about the 64 titles.
No... it was:YeldellGW said:
剣客異聞録
甦りし蒼紅の刃
サムライスピリッツ新章
Kenkyaku Ibunroku
Yomigaerishi Soukou no Yaiba
Samurai Spirits Shinshou
A Strange Tale of Swordsmen
Revival of the Crimson and Azure Blades
A New Samurai Spirits Chapter
Descriptive, yes... but tedious.
And Sen was always planned for Type X-2 since its initial announcement.

Whatever, works. All I know is that, by and large, most people associate "Warrior's Rage" with the PSX game, so to avoid confusion, I either use SS64-2, the JP title or "Ashura's Armada". Anything to make it so people will actually give me a chance, instead of immediately closing their ears because of what the PSX game did to turn off the few who did actually play it.
Ah ok. Thanks any way.
Any way, I'm looking forward to this. Since these guys worked on the original games, as well as Tenchu...would you think that they won't be afraid to show people actually running each other through with blades again?
I mean, I won't profess to be like what Abster was 2 years back, but it would be interesting to see what they could do to try and bring back some of the stylish things that made SS what it was back in the day through this game. And I'd have to imagine that it would be easier to do such things in a 3D game, where polygonal models can be much easier to do such things to than to draw a number of sprites to accomplish the same effect.
Of course...they'd probably would go back to making it so that any body whose last name ends with "-ruru" probably still be immune...
