Samurai Shodown is the best fighting game ever created for Sega 16 bit platform. The music theme is matched to the mood, unique settings and quality animation convincingly complement the perfect impression of this game. This port inherited from the original version everything necessary to successfully exist on a 16-bit platform. All the characters and their movements are present here - as well as dialogues and sketches. The original pace of the fighting also found its reflection here. Many may seem a certain similarity of fighters with characters from the famous fighting game Street Fighter 2.
