Eternal Champions: Challenge from the Dark Side

"A fun, gory 2-D Fighting game"

Now when I first saw the sega CD, it looked ok. Not so great, but ok. Then I saw this game. I immediatly bought a sega cd. This is one of those games that recieves TONS of hype. Now this game is definately bloody. I, who am not squeamish at all, thought this game was pretty nasty. Now this games has TONS of fmv. There are 4 kinds of fatalities, the FMV cinekills, the vendettas (Mortal Kombat style fatalities) overkills, and sudden deaths (stage fatalities, two per stage) The actual graphics are pretty good, but the sound, it's great! It fits the stage PERFECTLY. This is a game that should DEFINATELY made a soundtrack from. Of course, it wouldn't be worth the money, because you can just stick the game in a cd player. Another great thing about this game is the number of secrets. there are about 11 secret characters, and many more secrets! This game is definately worth your money. Buy it no matter how much you the price is! Worth every dollar!
