I played this game when it first came out in Japan a long time ago and I
so incredibly disappointed. Reading the reviews for this game I'm wondering
if I really am the only one that things Bushido Blade 2 blows compare to
BB1. I don't think the graphics are better (cheezier is more like it), and
the fighting seems to be dumbed down. Anyone else that thinks BB2 is a
disgrace?

Why is this being posted in this newsgroup? This is a Street Fighter II
newsgroup, not a PSX games newsgruop.
Well, anyway, no, you aren't the only one that thinks <i>Bushido Blade 2</i>
sucks. There are a lot of people that hate it. The backgrounds are much worse
than in part 1. The characters, they just changed the rendering, but that
really messed up the game. They simplified the controls and attacks for people
that couldn't play part 1 well. <i>Bushido Blade</i> is much better than
<i>Bushido Blade 2</i>

Bushido Blade 2 does indeed suck. The simplified control scheme and overabundance of lethal projectiles turned a precise and strategic swordfighting simulator into a clunky button-masher. Plus the blood spurts and injuries are way less brutal.

Also, hello from the future year of 2014.

Yes. Yes, you are. You are indeed the *only* person in the world who thinks that Bushido Blade sucks. In fact, until you asked this question, there were a near infinite and uncountable number of opinions of all things in the world. But as soon as you asked the question, the quantum probability field collapsed and only two positions became real in our universe: 1) People who think that Bushido Blade 2 sucks which consists of exactly one sapient entity: you and 2) Every other sapient consciousness in the universe and multiverse and beyond. Thus, you are indeed alone in your opinion that Bushido Blade 2 sucks.

Furthermore, all other opinions in the world are similarly bifurcated into exactly YOUR opinion and then everyone else on the side of the other opinion. And as such, no other opinions exist except for your own and whatever is opposite to that. It is an interesting binary world that I have just now discovered that I now live in.

Since you have been living in this bifurcated binary world your entire life, please tell me what it's like. I'm new here. This is the SF2 newsgroup which discusses exactly 2 things: SF2 and not SF2, of which Bushido Blade is of the latter category.

It's been over 20 years since this question was asked. I wonder if MCTek still thinks about Bushido Blade to this day?

25 years later, does Bushido Blade 2 indeed SUCKS or it was all a summer fever dream?
