Looking for the name of a certain Playstation fighting game.

Post by mauldooku »

Could anyone help me? Years ago, I played a fighter on my friend's PS. I remember very little about it, so I doubt anyone will know what the hell I'm talking about....but if smoeone does, I would be much obliged :)

Here's all I remember...

* Four characters. One barbarian-ish dude with a huge club, one with a medeival broadsword-ish sword, one with what appears to be a rapier, and some 'old guy' who IIRC hopped on one foot and carried a stick.

Yeah, I know there's a huge dearth of info, but if for some reason anybody understands what I'm babbling about, please reply :)

Anything else to jog the synapses?

What viewpoint?

Were these the only characters?

What was the style of play?

The PC version of that game was vaguely amusing. There was a first person fighting mode (using the exact same control setup), and Earthworm Jim was a hidden character.

First PS1 game I ever owned. Hell, it was like one of the first PSX games period.

I had a demo to that game. Got pissy after a while. I was never big on 3D fighters
