Story:
Eiji Shinjo,
the new Head of the "Himitsu Kessha", has organized a fourth Toshindaibukai
which revolves around the gathering of four holy weapons that can be used
to save the world or to destroy it. However, Eiji's old enemy from the
third Toshindaibukai ten years ago, Vermillion, is also after the four
weapons.
The King of... Toshinden?
General:
Also known
as Toshinden Subaru, Toshinden 4 is the last installment in the franchise
to his the PS1. Unlike previous installments, it only saw release in Japan and
the PAL region. It features teams of 3 characters, but like the previous
games, only 1 character fights at a time. The only returning characters
are Eiji and Vermillion, the rest of the roster is completely new. The graphics
lacked polish overall with uninspiring stage designs and blocky character
models.
Nope, haven't played it. However, I did read quite
a few reviews... after reading those reviews, I don't think
I'd want to spend my money on importing it & modding my PS1. :/
Sadly, the Toshinden series never managed to score a
graphical makeover. Toshinden 4's graphics are still terribly blocky and
the textures are still quite low-res... especially for a game in
1999/2000. The character designs & the artwork of Toshinden 4 were pretty
decent though... they deserved better graphics at least. ~F.Yagami,
