I also liked the Bushido Blade games. The idea of no life bars in a fighting game was awesome. It was take a blade to the head or neck, and die. Take a blade to an arm... and have one less arm to use, etc. Really good concept imo. Blade to the heart? Death.
It was fun dueling friends, running around through bamboo sticks then jumping out with some stab, getting sidestepped and stabbed in the side... or coming down for that stab, instead ducking and taking out your opponent's legs so he has to fight off his back.. oh yeah.
