Let's get one thing straight here - Morrigan is the sexiest out of all of them - and whatever happened to Donovan? Why wasn't he in Darkstalkers 3?

I still need to get the anime on dvd.... anyone know where to get it at a good price?

I don't even know why they didn't put him in DS3. I heard Donovan wasn't so popular in Japan for some reason but those are just rumors. But who cares, he's in Vampire Chronical(which i'm playing now :D )

Donovan smacks up Jedah's sorry ass like the undead hunting pimp he is. Seriously, I love Jedah, he and Donovan are my usual characters, Jedah's blood contract super is the coolest super ever.

Donovan is in Vampire Savior EX, along with the two original bosses. I'll have to read this story later. :)

Yea, Donovan wasn't in DS3 (the PSX american version), but it was on the import Saturn (which is known by its real name Vampire Savior). The Saturn version of Vampire Savior is actually the arcade version of Vampire Savior 2. VS2 was the same as VS with the extra characters added (one of which being Donovan).

I've played all 4 versions of VS: arcade, Playstation, Dreamcast, and Saturn, and I would have to say the Saturn is the best. You have the best controller (6 buttons with a great d-pad), no loading time unlike the Playstation version (thanks to the lovely 4 meg cart), and full animation (again thanks to our friend the 4 meg cart).

So in the end, the Saturn version is the best. I would highly recommend any fans of Vampiire Savior to get the import. It's worth every penny.

And to answer your question Spinmaster, yes indeed I am a huge Darkstalkers fan. :D buttrock buttrock

If you like Vampire Hunter, I would highly recommend Vampire Savior. It's the best game in the series. Don't get the DC version, get the Saturn version. It looks better than the DC version for three reasons:

1. The DC version has anti-ailiasing which in turn gives you a blurrier picture quality and not near as crisp as the Saturn.

2. The DC version "squishes" the picture horizontally and your characters look a bit thin compared to the arcade version.

3. You get a six button controller with all the buttons on the face and not those triggers for hard punch and kick. Those of you who are fighting fans know what a joy a 6 button Saturn pad is compared to the DC.

The Saturn is by far the best. Trust me on this one.

Donovan IS in Darkstalkers 3 (the PSX game).

Darkstalkers 3 (US PSX) = Vampire Savior EX (Japanese Arcade) = Vampire Savior (Japanese Saturn) = Vampire Savior (Japanese PSX)

Donovan, Huitzil (Phobos), and Pyron were NOT in the original arcade release of Vampire Savior.

What does everyone think of the anime? I have both DVDs and I've watched them quite a bit. I feel they did the series justice. Now only if we had some new episodes with Jedah/Lilith/Q-Bee/Bulleta. drool_2

I agree that the Saturn verison is the best, but you can have great control using an Agetec stick with VC. VC also does have better-quality audio than the Saturn version... much like comparing the two versions of SFZ3.

I am a pretty diehard Bulleta user. Jedah just isn't as cool in my opinion. I mean, he fits in and looks cool, but he lacks that "WTF" factor that I look for in characters. Bulleta on the other hand is a 10 yr. old sociopathic contract killer. That's really tough to beat.

I'd love ot see her fight NPI's Poochi (pronounced Poe-chi by the Japanese), the ninja dog that returns from the dead to serve his master.

Yeah I bought them when they came out too, and they are way cool. Morrigan is whey sexhey. drool_2

The Bishamon and Donovan parts are very cool too, and even Demitri (who I don't care for in the game) is very cool in the anime.

heh

i own vampire - pcb and psx port

vampire hunter - saturn

and obviously,vampire saviour - saturn again

wanted to buy chronicles for you know,the collection

and because its always a vampire game

i know all the cps2 ports are better on the saturn

sfzero 3 for example

so vampire saviour is no exception

i dont dislike the third chapter,
but vampire hunter is still the best

vampire saviour is a big circus

vampire hunter is a tops game with some circus bits in it

so vampire hunter = best one

and the bgs are better

Vampire Savior is not really a circus, just because you like Hunter more. Savior had a great set up as far as fighting games are concerned, with a storyline, challengers, and an excellently diverse cast.

Plus - Donovan is such a shitty character. I really hate his move set and character design. They got rid of him in VS because ... he sucked.

Man, I hope that Bulleta makes it to Snk vs. Capcom...

Gotta go with Fran on this one- not that I don't like Savior, I DO, but Hunter is just about the best fighter Capcom ever made.

I just think it's perfect (Except fot the saturn ports slight lack of frames). I just think it's slightly better than Savior (Which is perfect frame-wise).

I don't really dig the BGs in Savior the way I do in Hunter, and Jedah, while he looks cool, isn't a blast to play for some reason.

I feel about Hunter vs. Savior the way I feel about Alpha 2 vs. 3- The saturn 4m Ram cart versions are perfect and superior technically, but Hunter and Alpha 2 (') are just the perfect games- slightly better games than their sequels.

Capcom's perfection = Vampire Hunter and Street Fighter Alpha 2'.

Heh, isn't it wierd how few people appreciate the classics these days Fran?

Sometimes I'll pop Vampire in just to look at Anakaris' stage, I know, I'm a nut- but fuck it, Vampire is just too beautiful for words.
