I started playing Samurai Showdown 3 then moved to 4, ah I feel refreshed after playing some old school fighting games. I think I'll play some more, possibly Real Bout Fatal Fury Special, but I also have X-men vs. Street Fighter.......

Haha, cool. You barely touching the tip of the iceberg too. To get a real old school sense, you gotta bust out the NiGHTS, Radiant Silverguns and Virtua Fighter 2's of the world. I usually play one game at a time on my Saturn, but every once in a while I play 2 different games in one session and it's always pretty dang good stuff. I remember a few spring breaks ago I had a great session of Slam N Jam '96 (one of my all time faves) and then I popped in newly acquired Sengoku Blade (thanks to member GMW here)... man what an awesome day that was. :)

Spring Break's almost here, too...

Oddly enough, I remember getting quite addicted to Real Bout Special. Funny enough, back then I simply bought it for the ram cart for the Samurai Shodown games. But then I had to play it, and I actually found myself having fun playing it. And while I'm glad to have Mark of the Wolves, I kind of wish Playmore would find a way to port Real Bout 2.

Astal and Guardian Heroes are always great for some fun, as is Tempest 2000.

I just busted out my Saturn last week and started playing Shinning Force 3 with the intention of clocking it, man what a game :drool_2:. I'm also playing through Guardian Heroes again and trying (badly) to play Virtua Fighter 2.

Saturn is teh Daddy!

Today I went through and played, Real Bout Fatal Fury Special, Samurai Showdown 3 & 4, and Radiant Silvergun. I tried to play my X-men vs. Street Fighter, but it will not work, and I'm mad about that, but I'll live. I think I may jump into some Magic Knight RayEarth and if I can get it working, Vampire Saviour. I had a great time today playing some old school stuff, but it makes me want my Neo back, both AES and CD, just because if you notice I played SNK games mostly. Ah, I remember why I bought my Saturn in the first place, it was to play import SNK games because I couldn't afford a Neo then, ah the good old days, it makes me happy again. :D
