I dont know what youre on but the soundtrack was AMAZING, just because it doesnt appeal to the typical western call of duty sensibilities and instead has a very japanese feel doesnt mean its cheesy, sho's theme is one of the most suspenceful, upbeat, fitting-for-a-boss themes ive ever heard even now
My one dream is that this franchise gets the reboot it deserves, I want a fully HD cutscenes of the story, this franchise has such a good storyline that deserves to be retold in a modern engine. Eiji, Sho, Gaia, Abel and Veil, Cupid, Vermillion. All these awesome characters in true photo realistic 3D
@@st1ka Who the hell plays Nintendo? My nieces & nephews do but come on. I wouldn't expect much to turn out well on Nintendo besides Mario, Metroid, Zelda, & pokemon. Oh, donkey kong.
@@st1ka I wish a lot of the forgotten fighting games from the 90's could have a revival. There's so many. Bloody Roar, Eternal Champions, Battle Arena Toshinden, Primal Rage....
@@amisanthrope247 the Psycho one is good, too. I forget the full name but Psycho is part of it. The playstation had some really nice gems. One I rarely see get talked about is Omega Boost.
This third installement had many flaws but for me it's the funniest to play of the series, and it has tons of characters. With better graphics and some more polishing it could have been a great game.
Takara/Tamsoft hasn't done anything with the license other than the unrelated 2009 Wii "Toshinden". Since gaming nostalgia is all the rage, bringing back the OG PS1 characters for a Soul Caliber cameo would be awesome. The character designs still have so much personality.
Always preferred the Toshinden series more than Soul Calibur. One wasn't too bad but the Saturn version was certainly better, 2 was pretty good while 3 was the best in the series. Didn't care for 4 at all.
I have all Battle Arena Toshinden games and for me Toshinden 3 is by far the best and my favorite game of the series and this is my order; BAT3>BAT Remix>BAT1>BAT URA>BAT2>BAT4 Battle Arena Toshinden 3 is the best in all (Characters, Moves, Abilities, Combos, Special Attacks, Themes, Soundtracks and much more). Everybody have a favorite Battle Arena Toshinden game and they like the BAT1 and other people like BAT2 and blablabla. For the people who saying BAT1 or BAT2 or BAT4 is better than BAT3 deserves a punch in the face, everybody have a favorite Toshinden game but pls no other game is better than BAT3.
***** If you are fan of Toshinden games like me, yes i recommend the 3rd game to play. Some people don't know how much fun of Toshinden 3 can be so many moves and combos you have to discover, but well i like all Toshinden games but Toshinden 3 is and still my favorite game :)
+Gonçalo Tordo Ura is just a remake of part 2 on the saturn, but there is no chaos, no Uranus (Thank god! she's annoying!) and a different boss, but Sho and Vermillion is still on it.
Mm? So it sounds to me like URA is 2 but with less content? I only own remix and URA so I don't know what the differences are between those and 1 and 2
Why are the international copies of BAT3 lower quality in stage design compared to the US copies? Stages look like they were still in development or lazily rushed.
Guys i swear i played this game as a 12-13 year old kid now remembering the Awesome Story and Playtime i had on this game. Every Chars as a secrect counter part with you have to play free! on Memory Card! so nice, i swear i did all of them! Best players Vermillion and that McJacson dude! :D
Nagisa! Thats him! Always played as him, and spamed his gun. Cheap ass but fun as hell. This game was fantastic! So many characters, it was great. But if i rememebr correctly some where just basic clones of others wern't they? Still a fun game.
Cool man, i like this more than Soul Calibur too, for me Tekken sucks, Soul Blade/Calibur are awesome but Battle Arena Toshinden is Epic best fighting games ever; The better for the worse: BAT3>BAT>BAT2>BAT4 Game with best music: BAT3>BAT2>BAT>BAT4
i never really understood why they decided to make half the cast fight EXACTLY like the other half... just to have a large roster? that's not even an excuse. and JESUS, that's some horrendous CG, even for the time the game came out.
There is a name for those half of the cast...Clones. And why, I don't know, but a thing that can be seen is that half of them are "counterparts" to main characters (Eg: Playing as Nagisa gets you to specifically fight Vermillion no matter what later, as you also unlock him when you beat the game with the aforementioned character).
Man I fuckin loved this game when it came out my favorite was Ellis. That twin dagger crazy chick who dressed like fairy. Man I would totally play this game still.
SO TRUE! But I rather loved the anime--though it was because it was so off the cuff and poorly voiced. The whole series faded into obscurity FAST. It's kinda sad.
BA Toshinden 3 the best game of Toshinden games... i like the four games but 3 is my favorite more fun more characters and have the best character of the four games (Veil) i like Abel but Veil is just super OP and awesome :)
@MajorStupido why ? in BAT 1 the fights were much too short, I think. Its good to have a long-range life gauge, also in relation to the juggle-combos !
Still love this game. The nostalgia hits me super hard... 17 years have gone by

Oh man nostalgia!!! Great game!! Takes me back to the good ol days of 1999 and 2000!!
I was crazily obsessed with the opening when I was abt 7 :))
This is such a throwback! I've been trying to remember the name of this game for a while!
Man that opening, haven't seen it in years...
Reboot this series please lol. This game is great 👍
They rebooted it for the Wii... it didn't turn out well

This was the best one in all the series. The first to sucked and the fourth one was terrible
Thank you SO MUCH for playing in the correct aspect ratio.
Man... I'd love Namco to revive this franchise for a VS SC game. That would be amazing!
Dude, TAKARA had the rights to the original series, so therefore it should STAY in the hands of TAKARA.
it's up to Takara. not Namco.
Takara/Tamsoft hasn't done anything with the license other than the unrelated 2009 Wii "Toshinden". Since gaming nostalgia is all the rage, bringing back the OG PS1 characters for a Soul Caliber cameo would be awesome. The character designs still have so much personality.
there is no such thing as namco anymore . its bandainamco which has nothing to do with this game.
It would be amazing to see a revival of the IP. Its been dormant for so long that I wouldn't mind a full re-work of the games.
Wow, this looks nothing like how I remember it, then again I rented it for a single night about 15 years ago.
Same hear and never took it back
Always preferred the Toshinden series more than Soul Calibur. One wasn't too bad but the Saturn version was certainly better, 2 was pretty good while 3 was the best in the series. Didn't care for 4 at all.
This game was a perfect "battle" game...great characters and moves.
Crazy how that is was one of the earliest games to have an Graphics and Performance option.
on console maybe
im so glad that even by the 3rd point this game's still the same floatyness i grew up with
yup. Looking back at the series as a whole, I personally would have been quite happy if they just stopped at the second game.
I have all Battle Arena Toshinden games and for me Toshinden 3 is by far the best and my favorite game of the series and this is my order;

I'm curious, why is URA better than 2? And is wrong with 4? :)
+Gonçalo Tordo Ura is just a remake of part 2 on the saturn, but there is no chaos, no Uranus (Thank god! she's annoying!) and a different boss, but Sho and Vermillion is still on it.

This game need to remake in ps5😍😍

I want this game again.
The resolution that you have here is 1000x better than what I have when I play it on my PS3.
im here for sho only
I loved this game... but then, I used the game disc as a ninja star.
Hahaha...and how many "shurikens" were shattered in rage because the game is 'unfair' :DDD
11:25 I distinctly remember Tracy & her stage 🚧🏙
Siegfried? Jason? Is that you?
***** lol :)
This was the best of the series and should have a remake.
Cool man, i like this more than Soul Calibur too, for me Tekken sucks, Soul Blade/Calibur are awesome but Battle Arena Toshinden is Epic best fighting games ever;
The better for the worse:
BAT3>BAT>BAT2>BAT4
Game with best music:
BAT3>BAT2>BAT>BAT4
What about Bloody roar, Fighting vipers or Psychic force??
Battle arena toshinden 3 1996 ps1
Sofia's stage looks and sounds like some club in L.A.
Omggggg for the longest i couldn't remember what this game was called an i finally found it!
i never really understood why they decided to make half the cast fight EXACTLY like the other half... just to have a large roster? that's not even an excuse.
and JESUS, that's some horrendous CG, even for the time the game came out.
There is a name for those half of the cast...Clones.

TheArcadeStriker Or the developers were just fucking lazy
TheArcadeStriker i know the concept of clones, but it's so stupidly done here i didn't even feel like mentioning them this way.
Andrey Kusanagi nah it was a great Idea
@ValisHD Really? I thought the graphics are prefect the way they are. I'm just a old timer that loves these games no matter how cheesy they are.
Who is that, Jason???
I call him Jason Michael Leatherface
That was very weird at the end when you then had a different character and fought 2 extra guys. But the little girl fight was epic haha :)
Man I fuckin loved this game when it came out my favorite was Ellis. That twin dagger crazy chick who dressed like fairy. Man I would totally play this game still.
Rest in peace fo
i don't know if it's the worst intro ever, but namco's intros are way better
SO TRUE! But I rather loved the anime--though it was because it was so off the cuff and poorly voiced. The whole series faded into obscurity FAST. It's kinda sad.
Jesus that's one long intro lol
BA Toshinden 3 the best game of Toshinden games... i like the four games but 3 is my favorite more fun more characters and have the best character of the four games (Veil) i like Abel but Veil is just super OP and awesome :)
Veil was my main. Totally agree
That was a nice run I was hoping to see Adam.
Battle Arena Toshinden 2 was the best!
I still think the first game was the best in my opinion
@MajorStupido
why ? in BAT 1 the fights were much too short, I think. Its good to have a long-range life gauge, also in relation to the juggle-combos !
i'm ok with putting the life gauges at the bottom of screen but does it have to use 1/3 of the screen ???
Nice game, october 2019
Omg this used to be my game!!! They should reboot it on ps5
Вы заметили как с каждой следующей частью ухудшается графика?
didn't know toshinden 3 ever existed
Childhood 💔
my first 3d game
Is he holding his chainsaw by the blade at 9:42? And how do you block a chainsaw attack anyway?
Goodness, I thought all this time Shizuku fought with a spear. XD
Who died?
My first psx game i bought
is David cover?
"Get with it"!😂😂😂😂😂
blood blood blood blood blood
this games need to be remake
amazing game and sequel, all ruined by lazy graphics.... such a shame.
Had all 3 games loved everyone but this one seemed rushed on the graphics look really sloppy.
Back in the day my mom had to import it
Remake please?
Is Shizuku fighting with an opium pipe, damn!?
Damn Sho, you really didn't wanna die by Judgement that badly that you was like "Hey, I'm gonna kill my prideful ass myself then die by Jason"? XDDDD
Still play this game Excellent video Brother
Shos theme... ;( my fav of the whole game
Wow...had no idea Jason Voorhees was in this game lol
how the hell "judjey" looks unmasked?
Really not a fan of what they did to the UI for BAT3.
Why of all ps1 games on the PS network is this 1 of them
I agree! I wish they would!
actually I owned all 3 one was the worst 2 was alright but 3 was just great imo
Hey, it's CHEESY, But Fuck YEA, i LIKE IT!
GEMM AVER.
@TheGreatGarfield Yes
Is this playable on the PS2.
I played the first two but not this one or 4. I don’t like the health bars on bottom lol 4 looks pretty bad though- no familiar characters really!
Good times
God...it's like somehow each game degenerated from the last...
Omg...how I was I in to this game back in the day? Such a fucking cheesy intro. I guess gaming was so simple those times.
haha i used to love this game =) but are we jus ignoring the fact that his chainsaw is still moving as it goes thru his back? lmao
29:44
???
+King of Kong Couldn't help but laugh when I saw it.
@@Cupcom5 I saw what you did there!
this game was cool
Your opponents had no chance of winning, you could have at least let them show off their special moves.
Did this guy get lost on his way to a horror movie convention?
From 1 to 2 to this, this game got WORSE..
The narrator sounds kind of like Aku.. 🤔
BOOOOOOMBA
@TheGreatGarfield
also on PS3 :D
Naru Veil? the fuck are those? I never seen those. I did see Abel and Kain but not the other two
i didnt know it was a part 2 or 3
I wanted this game ): now not so much. Likey though xD
Never liked those Battle Arena games at all.
oh great, there are kids to increase the number of characters, waaaait : it's the boss ?
thx
