| Story: |
| As
bizarre a story as I've seen in a fighting game. A lot of the
character stories have to do with the concept of a Shinobi clan
and an evil being called a Tengu. Other plots include a troubled
father-daughter relationship, evil cloning operations and the
standard martial-arts-as-self-betterment concept. There's very
little story development in the game other than to provide fodder
for some short and dramatic cinema scenes. |
