Bloody Roar II – PS1
Let’s face it, fighting games are about proving you’re better. It’s a somewhat primal need, to every once and awhile show every one in the vicinity that you are the Alpha. Well, it doesn’t get much more primal than turning your friends into your own personal chew toys! Which is exactly what you’ll get in Bloody Roar 2.
No full moons are necessary, as a Zoanthrope, you’ll be shifting into your Beast-form whenever you can to regenerate health and to release much more devastating attacks upon your foes. Unleash and harness your inner animal to dominate your friends!
Or if you’re a lone wolf, there are multiple modes to keep you entertained. A simple, well written story mode for every character, a survival mode to test your endurance, and a watch mode to develop new strategies. Whatever you are hungry for in a fighting game, Bloody Roar 2 probably offers it.
