The biggest change is that when a character is hit it will take off permanent and temporary damage. The game plays exactly like the former Darkstalkers games only with a couple of new additions and changes. The first thing you'll notice is that unlike the arcade Donovan, Huitzil, and Pyron are included and selectable (why they were absent from the arcade, I don't know). The opening sequence is the usual Capcom goodness, but I still like the opening to Nightwarriors more. Enough with the background info - let's get to it. I must admit that VS is Capcom's most faithful Saturn port among their CPS2 fighters alongside SF Alpha 2 and X-Men vs Street Fighter. The Saturn Import version utilizes the 4-MEG RAM cart add-on and is arcade perfect as a result, effortlessly surpassing the PS arcade port and it animates better than Nightwarriors ~ Darkstalker's Revenge on Saturn. Capcom paved the way for GGX2 and others with Darkstalkers, their take on famous horror characters like Frankenstein, Wolfman, and Dracula, only designed with a Capcom flavor to them.įirst off, this was called Vampire Savior ~ Jedah's Damnation when it was released in US arcades and eventually came out for the PlayStation but was called Darkstalkers 3 instead. Besides, the characters in GGX2 are almost carbon copies of characters from other games: Sol and Ky are basically Eiji and Kayin from Toshinden (who are basically Ryu and Ken with swords), Faust is a copy of the form of Joker in Persona 2 with the paper bag over his head, Jam is Chun-Li in many ways, Baiken is a female version of Tachibana Ukyo from Samurai Shodown, Anji is Long from Bloody Roar, Testament is Jedah from Vampire Savior, Slayer is Bristol-Devil from Groove on Fight (which is actually Power Instinct 3), etc. Well you'd be denying yourself the pleasure of many other greater fighters that, while not as visually overwhelming as GGX2, play far superior and in some cases display better imagination. Perhaps you've become accustomed to the flashy antics of the fighters in Sammy's fighter Guilty Gear X2 and find it hard to look back at anything that doesn't look as sharp or animate as well.
