I've played BR since I was a child, from the first to the last! Only when I started playing Primal Fury did I start taking the game seriously by learning combos and strings! But I was still young and I only looked for stuff that looked cool for me at the time. Now, I'm ready to take it to the next level! I'll be hoping to attend any event for this game if given the chance! I play Shina or Shenlong/Long (Sometimes Bakuryu) but I practiced all the characters in the game. I just enjoy those 3 more~
I love this game and this franchise!
Simplesmente sou apaixonado por este jogo! Foi um dos primeiros jogos de PS1 que eu joguei, e até hoje eu amo ele! Não joguei o Primal Fury, mas joguei todos os outros.
Konami and Hudsonsoft has to bring a collection to this game series. Like BR was a really good fighting game. Turning into animals mid fight, the arcade mode, the fact that some of the finishers in this game go insane.
Beat this game a few times just to watch the fighting demonstrations showcasing what the characters can do during the credits and I would have gotten my ass kicked if I ever had to fight any of those players. Also, didn't find out Fox was a dude until years later when I finally read the manual that came with the game.
Este é meu jogo favorito!!!! Eu adoro a franquia Bloody Roar / Beastorizer. This is my favorite game of all time!!!! I love the whole franchise Bloody Roar / Beastorizer.
I love the action and the dark story . The special moves were absolutely amazing. Has tons of replay value as each character has a story of their own . Also lhas unlockable characters and costumes.
Being out 1-4.
One of the best 3D fighter's in the PS1 imo, definitively deserves a re-release with at least a online mode, although honestly any form of a re-release would be a miracle, it's really fun, silly, and it gave me a bigger dopamine rush than Tekken, thus making it the clearly superior game right?
I'll write it here, but bring all of them back, it's about time. My relationship with Bloody Roar is a bit weird. I never owned the full games, but I had two jampack demo disks on my PS1 containing BR1 and BR2. In BR1 demo I had to go back to the menu screen everytime I finished a Yugo vs Fox match, and I spent hours trying to pull off combos with only Long and Stun in the demo version of BR2. It didn't stop me from enjoying every minute of it as a kid. Years later I had a friend who introduced me to Bloody Roar extreme on xbox, and then years later I found a used PS2 copy of BR3 in a ebgames shop. It's the kind of game that was unique to the point of staying with you for a while and thinking about it every now and then.
This game is both simple and engagingly complex, and to this day the beast button is the most enjoyable, loaded, situationally more than useful, tempo messing, do it all button in a fighting game :
Get off of me pushback button ? Press Beast
Extra moves ? Press Beast
Unblockable attacks ? Press Beast
Need to kick the opponent off stage ? Press Beast
Your life is low ? Press Beast
Character specials ? Some combination and then Press Beast
There's nothing like it.

The game follows the story of Arkhan, a "guardian of fire", protector of the stallite 'Sparta' and the Sun Priests.
