Fist of the North Star fans

This is one of those obscure "classic" animes that many seem to love, including myself.  The artwork and back story have a style of their own, and of course the action scenes rock.

Anyway while browsing through Play-Asia I just found out Sega is releasing a new game based on the franchise.  Have no clue why but it looks alright.

Would rather they did an action/adventure game but this looks like something I may import, if I knew how to mod my damn PS2 anyway

edit- oops guess this should belong in the Main forum

sweet, wont hold my breathe to much though


you ever watch the new fist of the north star?!? or what ever it was called, got the original series, but not the other one... wondering how it was

ahh another fan. :highfive:

I saw the latest one, I didn\'t like the art nearly as much (it seems "shinier" and not as dark) but the story and badass-ness of the Kenshiro is still very much there, probably even moreso.  You won\'t be disappointed overall, worth a rental at least.

cool, ill prob wait for the entire series in a boxset, and then the price to drop a lil.

the series was v good, apart fromthe first disc.... at first i was like, maybe this is nto as good as i remember.... but after the first disc, wooopaaaaa!!! (<-----bruce lee noise)


didnt they make a arcade fist of the north star game??? had like 6 punch pads, 3 on either side, they popped up, you had to hit em?!?
