    I'm 30 now.
    Had it around late 90's.
    Still remember it, one of the best game of its era, and still one of the best 3d game ever.

  • @evangelistabjj2152

    this game didn't get the proper recognition at the time due to the decline of Sega and the Saturn. Would'be been considered one of the greatest beat them ups had it been released on a more popular platform such as PS1.

    • @UncleDeadly1031
      @UncleDeadly1031 5 років тому +3

      Not to be pedantic but this isn’t a “beat em up”. Sure, people get beat up in it but it’s a fighting game. “Beat em up” is a different genre more akin to Streets of Rage, Final Fight, etc. Just sayin’! :p

    This needs a re-release for the 360, PS3, PS4 and XBONE

    • @fireheartis1
      @fireheartis1 10 років тому +1

      Not to mention the freaking Wii U. This game would be awesome playing with the GamePad. Just like Tekken Tag Tournament 2 where some of the combos are on the tough screen. That would be awesome. I would by it again even though I own it on the Saturn.

    • @Pimpczar2011
      @Pimpczar2011 10 років тому +5

      Yes with updated HD graphics,Dolby surround sound,vibration support,and actual cinematic endings for each fighter(including the hidden ones).Plus give the bear character actual limb movement like the other fighters.

    • @Rigicai05

    This is the best 3D beat em up from the 32-64 bit era.Back then almost all my friends played tekken and they didnt accept the superiority of this one.Only me and one guy from my school owned a saturn and this game,we played it as opponents and we enjoy it a lot.

    @jedstuhr 9 років тому +9

    man, not just a re-release but they could (these days) release a new one with all VF Fighters, modernized Fighting Vipers characters, add more SONIC characters (like sonic), all the virtue cop characters and just pretty much anyone that has been a lead in a Sega Game...Nintendo can have Smash while Sega can have a this one!! :)

    • @cebarvideos

    I love those physics attached to the various kinds of ring outs that Vipers had. Smashing people through cages is endlessly satisfying and the way characters snap across the top rung is just.. painful. Awesome stuff.

  • @AnimatedAF
    @AnimatedAF 14 років тому

    About time someone acknowledged what an awesome game this is. I pumped countless hours into this game as a kid.
    Oh btw if you use the rip-off-your-Armour command with the Daytona USA car, it will have the same moves as Ura Bahn, plus it has the best throw move in any game ever. :P

  • @GamingPalooza
    @GamingPalooza 14 років тому

    i own this game and it is probably the best 3D fighter of the 90s, besides Virtual Fighter 2 and Tekken 3.

    @Dre_aka_sleepysandman 12 років тому

    Man I use to have this. I need to get it again since I have a working saturn now. I'm looking at the comments and a few of y'all really know the history behind this game. This is when sega was still really special. Wish the would go back to these type of games.

  • @slutenanstalt9950
    @slutenanstalt9950 10 років тому +1

    I had VF2, VFremix and Megamix as a kid. I first played Vipers today along with Megamix and realized that Megamix is basically Vipers on steroids. The mechanics, the graphics, the moves etc. are basically ripped from Vipers and when they are not, the characters are made to fit the unique graphical style established in Vipers. Looking back I think Vipers has aged better than the VF games because of its speed and fluidity, which helps to compensate for the dated graphics. The game does also have a lot more movements per character or at least that's how it seems, which means that even random buttom mashing will look somewhat cool, which does not really work out equally well in the VF games, where you'll often resort to the same dull movements other than repeating the couple special moves that every character has.

    This is one of my favorite Saturn games. There were a lot of great fighters that only came out in Japan, such as Waku Waku 7, Cyberbots, and Power Instinct 3: Groove On Fight, but, Fighters Megamix came out here, and is pretty good.

    this is my favorite 3d fighter for the Saturn. I love all the silly unlockable characters.

  • @SwankeyMonkey
    @SwankeyMonkey 12 років тому

    I'm pretty certain Fighters Megamix was released close to the end of Saturn's (US) life-cycle. It was a bit of a compilation, last hoorah.
    As for Last Bronx, it was an earlier SEGA arcade game, and near direct port to the Saturn to help pump sagging sales after PS1's release.
    So yeah... if they're gonna throw in Daytona cars and the like, then Last Bronx fighters would have been an awesome addition to Megamix's already large roster...

  • @sonicmario64

    I recommend reading the "Weekly SEGA SATURN magazine(Soft Bank Ltd,). Of course, it's the Japanese magazine. SEGA AM#2 development reader(Yu Suzuki) has interviewed on this magazine back then. Fighters Megamix has been released like main weapon on christmas season of 1996 against PS side.

    All I can say is "...Wow." This is probably one of the craziest fighters I've ever seen. I thought it was kinda hilarious that they brought over 2 of the characters from "Sonic the Fighters". And then the giant floating bear, and the car, and OH GOD WHAT'S GOING ON.

  • @meanmanturbo

Cuz I didn't know much about fighting vipers @ the time or where all these other side characters came from despite growing up with Virtua Fighter.

    This video just reminds me that Sega used to be the awesomest and epicest game company on the planet. I, as a Japanese, always thought Sega as an American company: creative, innovative and kicking-ass. Much later, when I was riding a bicycle, I happened to find its headquarter in Haneda (Tokyo) and realized it's a Japan-based company. I was very surprised. Now, I'm wondering, who's carrying on with Sega's creativeness among those big players... Sony? Ninty? Something tells me it's a lost story.

    Fighters Megabit was developed by AM2 and all the fighters were taken from their games. Last Bronx, if I remember correctly, was developed by AM3, which would explain why it doesn't feature any characters from that game.

  • @MistaJonz
    @MistaJonz 14 років тому

    @yusukeshinyama Well originally back in 1940 when it was first formed, Sega was founded as Standard Games (later Service Games) in Honolulu, Hawaii, United States by Marty Bromely, Irving Bromberg, and James Humpert to provide coin-operated amusements for American servicemen on military bases. In 1984, the multibillion dollar Japanese conglomerate CSK bought Sega, renamed it to Sega Enterprises Ltd., headquartered it in Japan, and two years later. Maybe that's why it felt American to you lol.

    Forget a mere re-release... They need to UP the roster! As well as all the new VF characters and then all the Fighting Viper characters... they need to throw in all the characters from Last Bronx as well as many sega franchise characters as possible.
    My god, it would rock. Tekken would be sweating bullets.

    Damn this game looks good.
    Too bad they don't make many of these types of fighting games, where they have lot's of characters from different franchises.
    Yes there are Super Smash Bros, Marvel VS Capcom & so on, but there's room for more.
    How about Sega's Ultimate Fighting game, a fighting game with many different Sega characters.

    • @Rakiarmas
      @Rakiarmas 10 років тому

      It's not really the gameplay that bothers me. It's the PC itself that I don't like.
      Even though I spend much time on internet, make UA-cam videos etc, I'm not a PC expert. If something happens to the Windows or something, I would be clueless on what I should do then.
      If someone would show me a PC game, I would have no idea on does it work on my PC or not. With my experience even a single little thing can make the PC game not work or there's some kind of problem.
      Don't get me wrong. I don't hate PC gaming or PC gamers in anyway. I just rather buy the game & play it on console without worrying about installation, hard-drive & other stuff.
      Although PS3 is pretty close to that line sometimes & I don't like that either.

    • @kewlbns69
      @kewlbns69 10 років тому

      totally get what you're saying i loved consoles for the simplicity of it just pop in a cart/disk, turn it on and it just worked no need to mess around with graphics settings or questions like "is my computer good enough to run this?" but while all that was going on i was still screwing with computers to see what i could make them do so by the time i switched over i had enough in my head to figure out how to make games run on whatever i hapend to have at the time. which never was and still isn't amazing

    I got my Sega Saturn model 1 off Ebay for 30 dollars, Best 30 dollars I've ever spent in my life.

    Got a Jap Saturn recently plus Stepdown converter I'm in (UK) and feel we were cheated over here by the lack of awesome titles we missed out on. I was told to get this game. The games coming tomorrow and I can't wait.
