With an extra character over the GameCube version (3 more than the PS2 one), improved graphics and the addition of CG endings for each of the characters, Extreme is easily the best version of the game yet. You see, Extreme is a slightly enhanced port of the GameCube's Bloody Roar: Primal Fury, which is in turn a slightly enhanced port of the PS2 version of the game, Bloody Roar 3. Bloody Roar Extreme is either the third or the fifth in the series, depending on your reckoning. As a result, every Bloody Roar game still plays an awful lot like the original. Instead of making any major improvements the basic gameplay, Hudson and Eighting seem content to just add a few new moves and characters to the mix, improve the graphics and call it a day. While the series does get better with each passing iteration, the improvements are in fairly small increments.
Time passes, though, and each subsequent sequel has had a tougher time establishing itself as a top-tier fighter. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the series, the Bloody Roar games have been around since the early days of the Playstation, where its better than average for the time fighting system and "Beast Change" gimmick helped the series rise above the pack of mediocre console fighters of the day.
