Has anyone here played ETERNAL CHAMPIONS: CHALLENGE FROM THE DARKSIDE?

i play it, it look like sega genesis version, but with better graph and the first sega cd game with 256 colors in screen (i think its the only one) its a great game, cool fatalities,and great cinemas with a lot of secret fighters.

I think its one of the best fighters titles for the sega cd and for all consoles of the 16 bit generation.

8.0 Great Game.

It's really tough too, much more challenging than the cart version.

It's one of my favorite games, it was the reason I wanted a Sega CD.

It's much more advanced than the cart version. There are a bunch of new characters, more deaths, and there are very neat 3D rendered video sequences to add to the stories.

The gameplay itself is basic Street Fighter 2 style, with 6 buttons and charge moves and all the other things that go along with it. Fatalities are done more like Killer Instinct than Mortal Komat, as they have to be done before the player is out of health.

Overall, a very solid fighter, well worth owning. Unfortunately the 3rd title planned for the Saturn was dumped in favor of Virtua Fighter or some other inferior shit like that. Too bad, I would have bought a Saturn to play that too

Can't forget the music guys! It had some really rockin' tunes!

really? the orignal was hard as heck for me, i still haven't beaten it, the eternal champion is a punk, and wouldn't quit coming back.

Is the story just as good? I liked the storyline of the first one. is it essentially the same in darkside, except with new characters?

The story is even better, thanks to the rendered FMV King M mentioned

It really brings the characters to life!
