I just had a nice chat session with My bud Triuemenator.

We all know Triuemenator is dead on with his information.

Since I have known him he has not been wrong yet. . . ever.

That being said, he just told me Samurai Shodown V is in the early developmental stages and will, with certainty, be released next year.

That, sadly, is all the information that is available. Characters, numbers of players, any prospective changes to the game mechanics or any additional information other than what I have printed is not known at this time.

Nonetheless, to quote <a href="http://www.neo-geo.com/cgi-local/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_profile;u=00002726" target="_blank">FeelGood</a>, "my sex just fell out."

Take it to the bank, folks.

How cool is this? :)

About gawd damn time !

I hope they make it more like Shin Samurai Spirits , not to say That I dont like 3 or 4 but I would like to see the play mechanics of Shin samurai Spirits with the animation style of Last Blade with the lighting effects of Garou .

Lets hope they do it right .

Last blade 3 would have been more interesting but a new SS game is still a good thing.

Definitely awesome news! Thanks RyoGeo for the update.

Anyway, this game won't be released for the MVS/AES system, will it? Some time ago I read (as confirmed news) that MS5 would be the last game released for the MVS hardware... frown

Groovy, wegettaanothergame, hope its good though gyaha.
I just want for once a game that goes over the 900 mark, i wanna see snk/playmore realy show people why they still have a demand for there products. Picture lb3 with about 12 superb music tracks, (in game of course) a nice 15 characters, lots of brand new additional moves & basics, coupled with a new game system that i invent my self, tell me what you think, i know it could be ajusted to perfection but what the hey.

basic attacks will be like so.

Standing attacks
A
BK+A
FW+A
B
BK+B
FW+B
C
BK+C
FW+C

Crouching attacks
A
DF+A
B
DF+B
C
DF+C

Jump attacks
A
B
C

Each character will have 3 cancel break system moves. They are activated by just pressing B+C after a certain basic move, the character will then perform a little animation to recover faster if this move is blocked only, then you have a few frames advantage.
If the move hits then you cannot do the cancel break.
Cancel break can be used for a new repel type attack, if they attack you whilst you are in it you can activate a special attack or you can repel them back between a high middle & low game. You must guess which button repel they use to counter it back, sort of like soul caliburs parry repel system. This should make the game very fast paced as the attacking character will gain those little advantages.

The game's control must be ultra loose so you can block each attack pattern & use your cancel break quickly.
Of course the amount of moves should make the guessing game hard along with silky fast animated characters to make it slick.
Also i would make the original repel (D BUTTON) have a cancel feature, so that if you miss a repel you can pull off any special or dm sdm attack off strait after it, if you like. Of course it could be easily counterd as the moves have alot of recovery time, it can only be used 3 times a match though, or it could drain off the power gauge down abit, therefor there would have to be 2 or 3 power stock gauges to cater for this.

TRIEU probably played the game already,

because hey we all know he's an insider

so it would be nice to hear what he's got to say

he said kof 2002 was AMAZING and that the game was the best animated kof,ever

i really can not wait to hear his first report on SS 5
