The following reports are from Atari Explorer Online
and were written after E3 of 1995:
Another one-on-one fighting game, from
High Voltage Software (they have a LOT of entries for Atari at E3, if
you haven't noticed). The most notable feature so far is its use of
several martial artists from MORTAL KOMBAT for its visuals. The game as
shown was -very- early; animation was minimal, scrolling was jumpy, and
players could beat the daylights out of each other indefinitely. I would
advise giving this title a few more months before passing any sort of
early judgment. ( Surfing the Jagged Edge, by Dimitri Mark LaBarge, The
Jungian View, report by Robert Jung, JAGUAR VR, Special Jag
Edition E3 ATARI EXPLORER ONLINE May 20, 1995).
This was a demo that consisted of about
four characters only one of which had any special moves. The backgrounds
were spectacular but for now the character animation is a little choppy.
I'm sure that this will be remedied later on. For now the game is just a
little too early to comment on. The Thea Relm fighter actors were
present and included Daniel Pessina (Raiden, Scoripion, Reptile, Subzero
and Jonny Cage in MKI and II) and Ho Sung Pak (Lui Kang from MK I And
II) and more (their show was also recorded on our tape). ( Surfing the
Jagged Edge, by Dimitri Mark LaBarge, Sven! Reports From the Show,
report by Christian Svensson (Sven!), Special Jag Edition E3 ATARI
EXPLORER ONLINE May 20, 1995).
