Giant Bomb Review of Samurai Shodown II

Giant Bomb: Samurai Shodown II is one of the all-time greats when it comes to 2D fighting games. SNK's weapon-focused fighter offers enough moves to keep your opponent guessing, and the rage gauge and impact of the game's heavy attacks means that matches can turn on a dime. While it's received plenty of ports off of the Neo Geo hardware over the years, the Xbox Live Arcade release is especially notable for including online play. Thankfully, the online play is perfectly capable over decent connections and the quality of the emulation is just fine, as well.
