This game is so cool. I loved it back in the day, and still adore its completely uncompromising design. I fought a couple of fights where I just decapitated my opponents while they were talking. When you don't uphold the code of the Bushido, you don't proceed to the second half of the game. Too bad. Fight with honor! Also too bad that the graphics kind of sucks...
