See my review for this game here: This is some gameplay of Bloody Roar on the PS1 as played on a PS2 with texture smoothing on. Though the series has fallen under the rug in recent years, at one time Bloody Roar was one of the more popular fighting franchises. The original came out of nowhere. There was no hype behind the game, and very little coverage. All I remember is one month Gamepro having a preview of it (a really positive preview), and then the next month there was the review. After reading the enthusiasm about the game in the review (I believe it was Scary larry or Possible Major Mike who reviewed it) I knew I had to try it. I rented it as soon as I could, then I later bought it. This game is pure fun. It does cater to button mashing, but there is still plenty of strategy to be had in the middle of the bouts. Mashing will only get you so far. At the time I didn't know how to describe this gameplay of the game, but I later played Fighting Vipers on the Saturn, and noticed that Bloody Roar borrows some of it's gameplay mechanics from FV. However, it's OK to borrow ideas in gaming as long as you put your own spin on them, and that's exactly what Bloody Roar does. If you're a fighting game fan who's still interested in the PS1, then look into Bloody Roar, or Bloody Roar 2. They may not be the best on the system, but they are still a damn good time. In the gameplay I'm playing on level 2 difficulty. Sure call me a sissy if you want to, but even on level 2 difficulty, I had some close matches. I had my butt puckered on more than one occasion when capturing this footage. Bloody Roar is also available on the Playstation store for those PS3 owners who are interested in it. NOTE: Some people may not know this, but Fox is actually a dude. Seriously. #BloodyRoar #PS1 #Gameplay
