It's been five years since America got a new Samurai Shodown game (not counting the anthology), but the wait is almost over. Samurai Shodown Sen has finally made its way over to the States from Japan, and will be releasing on March 30th for Xbox 360.
I don't know much about SNK games (mostly because I am much worse at them than I am at Street Fighter), so I asked CronosBlade and Hitorogoshi, the biggest SNK fanboys I know, what they thought of the game. While the official PR says we're supposed to be excited about "impressive 3D visuals" and a "huge roster of returning fighters", Cronos and Hito were excited about other things.
Cronos: "Gutting cute anime girls!"
Hito: "I get to murder the Ruru sisters? Count me in. I can't wait to stick my sword in them."
Perverts.

If he's not playing Team Fortress 2 or getting into arguments about why PC gaming is superior, he's either off having a fancy dinner with lots of expensive wine, or sitting on the Destructoid IRC complaining that's he's not off having a fancy dinner.
Likes: Chrono Trigger, Street Fighter, Steam, everything Blizzard and Valve have ever made, playing Angry Birds on the toilet.

Was he wrong? If so, was it GREAT!?
I'm guessing ps3/xbox?
Clarification plz!
Also will it be like the shitty 3D KOF game or play more like SF4 (no side stepping)?
I've always wanted to play that SS as the combo system looked fun. Managed to get hold of a 3D SS for Playstation 1 but it wasn't the same thing at all.
my pants are tight.
