Depth: 6/10 I was torn on what to rate this one on depth. Probably my favorite effect, which is good since it's the one you hear most often, assuming you choose a character that carries a sword. The sound of the sword slicing was crisp and clean. Okay would describe it pretty well, and it did seem to fit the game pretty well. Who knows? The music wasn't anything special, but it wasn't annoying or even the least bit bad. Perhaps, if I had more experience with MAME, this would be rated a ten for sound. And though they are the best sound effects I've found in a MAME rom, this is only the second one I've played, and the audio in the last one was less than desirable, so being the best isn't saying much at all. And though not all of the voice acting (grunts etc.) are the greatest, they are good for a MAME rom. All in all, Sengoku 3 does have something to offer graphically, but don't expect to be blown away, or even impressed. Still, I suppose a lack of variety cannot detract from the quality of what it does offer. The particle effects aren't bad, but aren't as varried by character as they could be. Still, the backgrounds are decent enough for the average arcade game, and the sprites aren't terrible, just not great, and I have seen much worse. Flat backdrops with a lack of life, and no real visual appeal. That said, there really is no excuse for not putting more attention into the details and sharpness of the sprites. They're meant to be played through in one sitting, so depth isn't really an issue. In fact, they tend to be side scrolling games with no element of exploration at all. Let's face it, arcade games in general are short, and have few areas to explore. The biggest issue being that the sprites are a bit more blocky than seems justifiable in a game with so little in it. Graphics: 7/10 When I first started this game I thought the graphics were amazing, however as I played on, I began to notice little problems here and there. Enough introduction: time for the reviewing. And for once, I feel like my review rating and my personal rating for this game are one and the same. It will however, cure your need for some classic beat 'em up action. I won't pretend this one's perfect, or even remarkable.
I grew up popping quarters into machines with my brother to play games just like this one.
This is exactly what I think of when I think Arcade. The minute I fired this one up, I was imediately engulfed with a feeling of Nostalgia. Sengoku 3 is your classic beat 'em up arcade game. Thankfully, this one was a much more enjoyable experience for me (though I realize not everyone would feel the same). Sengoku 3 & Sengoku Densho 2001 Review by: Eirinn - 5.6/10 Why oh why did you not follow through with such a promising game, SNK? Ah, my second MAME review.
