Damn thanks a lot Cyber, Genjuro is even more badass in my opinion now. “What did I tell you Genjuro?! NO MORE HANGING SWORDS!!” Horrible pun but I was watching Futurama.
Has an Iori/Kyo feel to it. I’m pretty sure if there ever was an end fight Hoahmaru would win, but not kill Genjuro due to his beliefs. Genjuro will probably do himself in.
Even if he’s shit in Tenka I’ll try to make him work, here’s hoping the new SamSho does him justice.

Genjuro does just suck in Tenka…he lost some things that have always madehim good…he does just suck!
Genjuro is bottom tier for a reason!!!
Where are people getting SS Sen info from?
I thought the SS64 games were abominations. Well okay, I only played the first one, but it made me long for the sanity of Samurai Shodown 3. And the second one didn’t seem to be much better, but I honestly don’t know. Never heard anything good about it though. More like that = NO THANKS.
Arcade SS64-2 is clearly worth playing if you ask me. Certainly not the best game ever but very far from being an abomination.
SST seems to be considered the definitive SS experience, or at least thats the impression im getting from most of the folks here. So then i have two noob questions in that case. The first question is when we can expect a north american release. The second question is how bad is the balance in this game, like are the tiers as strict as CVS2 and MVC2.
SSVSP is possibly the most balanced 2d fighter ever. Tenka is almost as good.
Arguable but quite true, though that’s also because beside each character’s movelist, you tend to play all of them the same, engine-wise. To some extent it’s the same with Garou MotW: since the most damaging chains are more or less the same for everyone since they rely on feint cancelling which all characters share, the game is very balanced.
For the record Grant cannot feint cancel :).
Nocturnal- LOL, Thats true!!! 
Rik- SST yes is coming stateside to the Wii…
Still gunna say that if you havent yet, play SSVSP “somehow” first if you haven’t. The engines feel in that game-to me atleast- feels more familier to the samurai spirits of the past. Plus the system translates well into SSTenka’s SSV groove, though all of them seem to without much modification to gameplay.
I am also very hyped for the 3D SS game. Each time I see some sort of teaser for it I go nuts XP.
@ Arstal: I don’t know about that, I’d say GGXX:AC gives it a good run for it’s money in that catagory though it only took SSV 2 rehashes to get it right instead of 5 XD.
SST and SSVSP are monster games… we need a port of the latter…
I was able to play the latter at one point using kawaks however, now I’m lost as to what emulator will run it considering the new ones are out and would like to play it on my new computer i built. Any help would be appreciated and I apologize if this is not supposed to be posted. if so, I will delete it.
You know I know that, and let’s not talk about the fact that The Big Bird can feint cancel but has no feint cancel chains for obvious reasons:arazz:

charlotte is not low tier in SST… just to let everyone know… shes A class at the very least… depending on the spirit you choose
Never said she was low tier, just nerfed. She definitely is A tier in Special. Maybe S if there is an S tier (which I don’t believe there is) My only experience with Tenka is some reluctant casuals with the Triad, who didn’t care for Tenka at all. (They’d still rather play 2)
SSVSP is more balanced then GG, though individual matchups may not be as balanced. Think of it as Super Turbo Balance with the bottom and lower-mid tiers in that game buffed to mid status. You can win a tourney with any two characters in Special. There is a reason the Online tournies for Special have rules about pre-selecting characters (to prevent counter picking much) For example, I’d try to avoid putting my Charlotte against a Nakoruru, Haohmaru, or Basara, but would eat a Ukyo, Gedo or Enja up, and those latter three are generally considered better chars.
One question- for those with the PS port of 2, are the controls better then arcade- which has questionable controls (be it arcade or emulator?)
…Tekken DR?
Just dropping by to say SST is the shit. VSpecial is dope too, but Rera/Shizumaru feel so much better in SST.
Not out here yet, i thought the days of europe being treated like muppets was long gone, i guess not, but besides DR what else? calling all cars? SPACEDUST!! whatever the fuck it’s called when xbl has ff special soon to be getting ss2, anyway enough of me going off topic.
I dont recall ukyo or enja minus his glitch ever being considered anything more than average gedo yes but those two?
SS5sp definently deserves alot more love, along ss4 with 2 completely end of the fighting game spectrum in the same series
