GameOn Review: Samurai Showdown Anthology

GameOn writes: "The Samurai Showdown games aren’t a set of games that I have ever heard of. I checked out the facts online and found out they have been going for 15 years. The Samurai Showdown Anthology brings each one together into one tidy package and here I am, discovering a set of games 15 years in the past on a new age console, the Playstation Portable.

With the games originally being released on a console known as The Neo-Geo; one that I have never seen or heard of, this still left me in the dark about what to expect. Upon loading up the game (which took some time) I found myself asking numerous questions as to what I was about to embark on. "Would the game be any good?" was the most frequent one that popped into my head. The title menu appeared and I was presented with a choice, the choice to play one of the 6 games. As the anthology was created to celebrate the first game, I chose that one. Arcade mode was what I chose after another lengthy loading screen and the game began."
