Last Blade - US

 

Description

 

The Last Blade is 1 on 1 weapons based fighter. Somewhat similar to the Samurai Shodown series, but flashier and more elegant. It features 12 selectable characters, and each character can be chosen to play in "power" or "speed" mode. In "power" mode characters have access to both DM's and SDM's.  In "speed" mode characters have access to DM's and a timed custom combo style move.

The game plays very smoothly and animates well, one of the best looking games on the NGCD system, a must own title.
