DESCRIPTION

Around the world, High School students are mysteriously disappearing. Police, parents, school officials, and even national governments can not determine who or what is to blame. But the students themselves refuse to surrender to fear — "We'll protect our schools" they cry. To do so, they'll need to enter fierce hand-to-hand battles featuring powerful combo-attacks and tag-team tactics.

Rival Schools is a team-oriented 3D fighter featuring an assortment of characters, many recognizable as exaggerations of familiar High School stereotypes. Find a new use for baseball player Shoma's bat or outflank the competition with the fast attacks of cheerleader Tiffany. Harness the violent tendencies of the hyperactive Edge or unleash a precision beating with the quiet, bespectacled Kyosuke. ~ T.J. Deci, All Game Guide

“I've always loved Batsu from Rival Schools. Never felt like a "Ryu" character to me. Although I would play around with the different available fighters, I would always try to throw him in...”

“It was a combination of events all meeting at a single point in time. I've wanted to sit down and study a fighter for a long time to begin with...then SF4 came out...then I lucked out and got the bad ass fightstick...then more good fighting games started coming out (BlazBlue, KOF, etc)...and Annie expressed direct interest in Soul Calibur 4...so there ya go. :)”

“I cut my teeth on this fighting game, so I am massively biased when I say, "this is the best game in existence."”

“One of my favorites. Classic slow clunky gameplay with awesome characters and team up moves. In an era where everyone was juggle raping (MvC2) or tech rolling(CapVSnK), this game proved to be fun with QCF's and four buttons. ”
