X-Men VS Street Fighter


It took an expansion cartridge to run, but it was an improvement over the arcade & proved the Saturn was the definitive system for 2D. While the Playstation could only manage 1-on-1 fights (minus a gimmicky mode that required both teams to be identical so it still only had to load two characters) and still had to cut animation frames, the Saturn had the complete game & even had speed options to run the game in turbo mode. [Why in the world you'd want to make the game ludicrously fast is an unanswered question, but it is still impressive.]

Of course, not many people wanted 2D games at the time, but in terms of 2D power this game is a full console generation over the Playstation and completely embarrasses it.
