Review-Sequel of The Last Blade, with similar gameplay and slightly improved graphics but at very high price: loading times will kill you.
I wonder how SNK could allow such shameful loadig times. Obviously, lazy SNK didn't take a second to optimize this version for the Neo-Geo CD. Instead, they just dropped the whole thing bluntly into the CD. The end result is that a great cartridge game suddenly loses its appeal because of too many pauses between battles.
Bottom line: Slow-loading time (even on the faster double-speed Neo-Geo CDZ) compromises an otherwise nice fighting game. 6,5/10
