It's still the best fighting game on any system, of all time.
won what?
>>12029060Grand Prix for Best Fighting Game Of All Time. The big one. Championship of the Universe.
>>12029060OP’s admiration.
>>12029021Did anybody figure out how to get the true ending on their own?
>>12029021Limb damage, changeable weapons, being able to run around the entire map during story mode, and a secret character with a fucking gun were awesome features. This probably is one of my most played fighting games.
>>12029181Throwing weapons, throwing dirt... there were so many cool aspects to the game. BB2 was considerably dumbed down compared to the original, as well. Which is a huge tragedy.Somewhat realistic damage and deaths made it a lot more fun. And the fighting styles with all the various weapons were semi realistic. One of my mates was saber fencer and he sucked balls at and hated video games but he too to Bushido Blade and the saber like a duck to water, because it was realistic enough that it just clicked with him. It wasn't so much a video game but a melee combat simulator. Maybe that's why.
>>12029021This is the type of game that gets people beat up in real life. We stopped playing it real quick.
>>12029074the way to get the true ending is right there in the game title>>12029298me and a buddy had a lot of fun with it back in the day, often doing matchups where i'd use the fastest girl character with the rapier and he'd use that strong slow guy with the sledgehammer, i wound up having to protect my rapier from getting hit cause if we clashed at all it'd throw me off balance long enough for him to kill me every time, but if he missed with an attack i could just kill him every timewhat a great game it is
>>12029298It's great. Anything goes and the battles are brutally short if you're a newb.
>>12029181Seconded. This game is so overlooked it's insane. Bb1/2 are definitely underrated then deatrega too
>>12029379Destrega*
>spam rapier>counters EVERYTHING and eventually enemy runs into itwow deep battle system
>>12029445>>spam rapierwhy would you do this, all the weapons are fun in their own different ways
What's the best way to play Playstation online for this?
>>12029021God the PSX was so good
>>12029445Actually naginata is the cheap weapon but they can all be countered.
>>12029021based and true
>>12029367not even if you're a newb it's just a very lethal game where one mistake can cost you
>>12029876yupwhen me and my buddy played it a lot at first nearly every battle ended quickly, then after a while they were all long drawn out battles, before finally settling into fights either ending in the first clash or lasting 10+ minutes
>>12029445>spamWell found your problem.
>>12030069>don't use this stabbing weapon effectively, it breaks the game
>>12030341Take it up with >>12029445
>use nodachi>hold down>press o>enemy lost the use of his legsGetting the perfect ending was easy after figuring that one out
>>12030350Oh and when I say hold down I mean keep holding it so you do that slow side stepIt has the added benefit of making you avoid thrown weaponsNow I just have to figure out how to cheese the 100 katana duels
>>12029021Mogged by Hellish Quart at it's own game.
>>12030387It only took a gamedev what 30 years to make something that can compare to bushido blade?
>>12030394>compareHQ is so ahead of BB there isn't even a point in comparing them.
>>12029021I dunno but the title track fucking rules.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8FP45DRJvEIs there anything similar to that track?>inb4 'just listen to traditional japanese music lol'
>>12029610Against me on Duckstation netplay
>>12030407Osamu.
>>12030341>Parry this you filthy casual
>>12030407Maybe the Haibane Renmei OST
Level design tech demo
>>12034181The levels were great. Just stages for a sword fight really.
>>12034181Retard.
>>12030407For me it's https://youtu.be/yRZ9nRvy5VI
>>12029021As asked before, won what? Bushido Blade was an excellent game, but it unfortunately had no cultural impact on future game design.
>>12034424see>>12029071
>>12034368neat
Loved the little things in the game like the bandages on wounds sustained in previous rounds. Getting dirty in the mud. Chopping the Bamboo trees with slashes. That mode where you go up against Ninjas in a hallway, System link two PS1 consoles for 2 player first person mode duels...
The 2nd one was better. Didn't have connected stages anymore, but the roster was a lot better.
