- The Bloody Roar series has always been fun and unique. It has also been rated T in the past. This rating allows many people to enjoy the game. The mature rating surprised me and then I plugged it in I understood why it was rated M. The blood factor in this game detracts from the gameplay.
- Nov 17, 2016 Not sure. Only played Bloody Roar: Primal Fury on the Gamecube and finished the whole game in under an hour i think. Mashing buttons not knowing what i did. Bloody Awful. Playing one on one was fun though. And it looked good if i remember.
At the beginning of each stage, both players have a set amount of energy that is used to activate 'Beast Mode', which causes the character to change into a Beast. Players may transform at any time after the letter 'B' appears in the 'Beast Indicator' below the players' life energy indicators. The Beast Indicator appears blue when storing the energy needed for transforming. When the Beast Indicator is fully charged, the word 'BEAST' appears, and the player can activate Beast Mode by pressing a certain button. During Beast Mode, the amount of fighting moves available to the character increases, the character becomes heavier, 3% of the character's life energy recovers and the character's jumping ability increases. While in Beast Mode, the Beast Indicator turns yellow. The yellow area decreases according to damage sustained by the character. The yellow area does not recharge during the current round. When the yellow area completely depletes, the Beast Mode will negate when the character is hit by an effective technique from the opponent.[3]

The boondocks season 1 free. Bloody Roar received generally positive reviews from critics, and its success resulted in its re-release for The Best range on October 14, 1999.[1]
Sushi-X of Electronic Gaming Monthly said that the game's visuals 'definitely look good, but to see these characters engage in flashy combat is even more impressive.'[26] Douglass Perry of IGN noted that the graphics had 'great shadows' and 'detailed textures in both the background and on the characters', but added that while the character design was 'cool-looking', it was not 'addictive or moving'.[21] Jeff Gerstmann of GameSpot stated that the game's graphics were 'every bit as good as the arcade version'.[20]
Perry noted that the 'high frame rates and a speedy graphic engine enable moves to be executed quickly and without wait.'[21] Gerstmann said that the game 'runs fast and very smoothly' and that the game's moves are 'very dynamic, resulting in a lot of oohs and aahs as a wolf bites a chunk out of his opponent's neck and blood spurts everywhere, splattering on the ground.'[20]
Perry admitted that he 'actually [liked] half of the tunes, while half of them sound like they've been ripped off from forgettable '80s heavy metal tunes.' On the voice acting, he noted that the only character sounds he found annoying were those from the character Alice, comparing her to both a 'broken record' and Demonica from the Nintendo 64 video game Dark Rift.[21] Gerstmann passed the music off as 'typical fighting game fare', but said that the sound effects were 'really great'.[20]
Next Generation reviewed the PlayStation version of the game, rating it four stars out of five, and stated that 'Overall, Bloody Roar has solid gameplay and excellent graphics, even if it doesn't have any sense of style. And we'll take raw gameplay over style on any day.'[27]

Gadou: Incredible! I can't believe you have managed to reach this place without any combat training. It seems you have inherited a lot of your father's natural and unnatural abilities. / Yūgo: Gadou?! Why are you here? / Gadou: Like you, Yūgo. I am searching for Yūji Ōgami, your father and my best friend. I'm sure our answer lies behind this door! / Yūgo: What are they? / Gadou: They are Beast Soldiers. This is where they kept the soldiers who fought against the mind control experiments and the conversion process. The Tyron Corporation keeps this laboratory a secret from the world. / Yūgo: But, if this is where my father is being held.. Where is he?! / Gadou: I am sorry Yūgo.. I could not save him.. / Yūgo: Father.. I know you will never be able to rest while our enemies live.. I promise you from this day forth, with all the powers I have inherited from you, I vow to destroy them all. This battle will never end..

Gadou: Ha! The destruction of the Tyron building is almost complete. Only a few people are still trapped in the basement area. My mission is complete. Yūji, my friend, I have exacted revenge for you. I know you would not have agreed with my methods but this is my way. / Text: Following the arrest of Gadou who allegedly destroyed the Tyron Corporation building, police investigators at the scene uncovered the secret experimental lab Gadou claimed the company was using for illegal genetic experiments on humans. Police sources have now confirmed they have accumulated enough evidence against the Tyron Corporation to drop all charges against Gadou. / Gadou: Why do I feel so.. strange? Is it because I am no longer being hunted by my enemies? All my life I have known the thrill of the hunt. The lure of danger and excitement have been with me for as long as I can remember. Yūji, our enemies are gone, but I cannot live a quiet life, not after all the war and bloodshed I have seen and caused.. It is my true nature to fight! (later) And now I find myself back on the battlefield. The smell of blood and the dancing of flames is where I feel truly alive! Every organ, nerve and cell in my body cries out for the thrill of battle! Death follows me like a shadow. And even though my next battle could be my last, this is the life I was destined to lead. Yūji, the battlefield is our true home. When we meet in the heavens, we will have many tales to share and we shall laugh and celebrate together!

H.. H.. Help.. / Scientist #A: Experiment B-0755 molecular destabilization has reached critical point. Nervous system and muscle tissue have completely decomposed. / Scientist #B: Hmm.. Interesting. Were the results from the simulation as we expected? / Scientist #A: Yes they were. Was that the last of the series B-0755 class type? / Scientist #B: Correct! This final round has proven conclusively we cannot continue using this model. We must concentrate our efforts on the latest prototype conversion process. / Scientist #A: Sigh! It's going to be a very busy year.

Last years sleeper-hit fighting game, Bloody Roar, was released by Hudson in Japan, and Sony subsequently snapped it up for a U.S. debut. This year, Sony will repeat that magic by releasing Bloody Roar II, a far superior and much improved game.
THEY'LL NEVER BE BEASTS OF BOREDOM
On the one hand, Bloody Roar II continues the one-on-one fighting style of the original, featuring human players that morph into ass-kicking animals during a match. You still have your choice of some of the best fighters of Roar along with the addition of a bat, leopard, chameleon, insect, and half-beast. The boar, fox, and gorilla from the first game are gone.

On the other hand, Bloody Roar II improves on the original, using much smoother and more realistic graphics. Special moves look snappier, the combos are slicker, and the backgrounds are eye-catching without being distracting. The game also moves at a speedier clip, so combos and morph moves occur in the blink of an eye.
The Rave move of the first game, which sped up your fighters moves and made it harder for an opponent to get a punch in, has been removed. Bloody Roar II now has a Super combo that drains all of your Beast meter (which fills up according to your attack/damage ratio), but it's relatively easy to defend against The game is now more about quick-hit combos and counter attacks, and less about who can take more hits (as it was before in the original Bloody Roar).

Animal Bone Crackers
All the bone-cracking sound of the original is present here. Indeed, the sequel roars with sound, from the growl of the tiger to the howl of the wolf. If you don't like cutesy Japanese voices, however, steer clear of Jenny the Bat.
Controlling the characters is simple and effective. Using the button-tap style of Tekken 3, you'll find yourself learning the quick-combo system easily. Throws, counters, and air juggles round out the game and add depth.
Fangs For The Memories
If you liked the original, you'll love the sequel. Also, if you're a fan of the Tekken series and can't wait for Tekken 4, go out and purchase Bloody Roar II right now. This zoo crew of fighters create one of the best fighting games available this season--a welcome addition to any fighters library.
- PROTIP: To get to the hidden character of Gado, play through the game with any character. To access Shen Long, play through the game and beat the final boss in under 6 minutes 30 seconds.
Graphics
The visuals are an improvement on the original--in fact, you'll find the blitzkrieg action almost too much for the eyes. Nice moves and cool backgrounds also lend a hand.
Sound
Although you'll wince when you hear Jenny the Bat yell, all the jungle sounds are crystal clear. During matches, die music is somehow a full-metal racket and subde at the same dme.
Control
You'll probably practice against a weaker friend a lot to get the controls down because, regrettably, the game has no practice mode. But after that, you'll be roaring with pride.
Fun Factor
Better than a lot of wannabes, this game is a great fighter to sharpen your fangs on--especially for newbies who can't grasp the complex combo systems of other games. Bloody Roar II is one of the best fighting games available.
