Bushido Blade was one of the most hardcore fighting games ever.
No health bar, fatal blows (head/center torso) are instant kills, no blocking - you can only parry by counter attacking, full 3D movement so you aren't locked to 2 directions. Characters have different movesets and you can choose different weapons to vary is up even more.
If you're having trouble visualizing it, think Soul Calibur but much faster paced, and without supernatural elements.
When you have button mashing noobs the fights could be over in seconds, but I had a match once go on for about 20 minutes. When you play against someone who is skilled the matches are extremely satisfying.

Shame it's a terrible game.

The Steam logo was seen on SQuenix's 13 page, so I wouldn't be surprised.
My real hope is 15 coming to Steam.

With Final Fantasy games very slowly coming to PC and 4 being released today, do you think Final Fantasy 13 will come to PC/Steam?
