Fighting Vipers kicked off SEGA’s 1996 year-end assault on gamers’ wallets (or so they had hoped). A 3D vs. fighting game, AM2’s FV uses the same three button layout as Virtua Fighter but gameplay-wise, FV is all about fast-paced button-mashing fighting. The eight characters wear body armor which can be battered off for some devastating damage. Stages are enclosed and walls can be used to a player’s advantage… and even broken through! A good game.
A Saturn fan since the beginning, Peter plays Saturn almost exclusively. For Peter, Saturn represents a moment in time where 2D games were at their best, 3D was just rising, and fascinating gaming ‘firsts’ were commonplace. There are very few Saturn games that Peter cannot find some enjoyment in!
