Samurai Shodown V is a one-on-one fighting game like all its predecessors, letting you pick one of more than two-dozen colorful characters and take on your opponent in a fight to the finish. We just hope SNK manages to iron out a few remaining hiccups in the action before the game ships. However, judging by this latest version we played, you can expect all the classic Samurai Shodown characters to make a comeback, and for the action to play just as well against the computer as against other players on Xbox Live. Like most of the company's other games, Samurai Shodown V for the Xbox is mostly just a straight port of a NeoGeo game, so we're talking hardware that dates back to the late '80s, here-don't expect any whiz-bang effects from this game. And look at how few of them could accurately be described as samurai! Look at all those characters to choose from. You're not liable to find NeoGeo arcade machines as common these days as you would back then, but thankfully, SNK's keeping that fighting game spirit alive with its arcade-inspired lineup.

Granted, many fans would argue that the series hit its peak more than a decade ago with Samurai Shodown II, but that hasn't stopped SNK from trying to recapture the magic. Fighting game fans know the name Samurai Shodown, since it's one of the most respected series among SNK's crop of NeoGeo classics.
