So, we have Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, Virtua Fighter, Tekken, Dead or Alive, Battle Arena Toshinden,King of Fighter all trying to make a name for themselves as 2D fighter titles, and then you have this little one time hit game. This would of been all but forgotten by me if it weren't for the infmous "Knock Candy's outfit off" trick thats in this. This is another one of those great fighting games on the Saturn. The game is great. The control is very simple and easy to use and theres plenty of moves to learn. The sounds and music in this game is very good and I really like it. The sounds are detailed and sound great. Fighting Vipers is a game that every fighting game fan should have the game has plenty of moves to learn and use. The characters each are very neat one guy has a skateboard and another has a quitar. The game is one of the best I’ve every played and I like it a lot. The game lived up to the hype I’ve heard about it and its way better than Virtua Fighter 2 and other similar fighters. The question in this game who will be the ultimate Fighting Viper? STORY Hyper-adrenal combatants in full-body armor, battling night and day in back-alley rings – only such young urban warriors as these have earned the right to be called VIPERS… Now, in Armstone City, the mayor has formally announced a fighting tournament on a grand scale, with the final bout to be help atop the staggering City Tower in the center of town. With City Tower as their ultimate goal, eight young VIPERS start down the path to victory, a path to which only one will see the end… GAMEPLAY **9** The game is very easy to control and is no problem there its just that the game seems to kind of go slow. Fighting Vipers works well with the Saturns controller and provides no problems. The control is fast and responsive. Fighting Vipers also has over 700+ movesl to learn and master, which should take some time to learn and perfect them all. The control of the game is solid and is great. SOUND / MUSIC **9** The games sound is very detailed and the music is great. Although I took a point off because its just the usual thing although there are some cool sounds and clips of music. Theres plenty of sounds in this game. Fighting Vipers has very detailed sounds and no sounds are missing although there are no voices. The sounds are detailed and you can hear the impact of a kick or punch. The harder the hit the louder the sound in Fighting Vipers. The music in this game is great. The music was well chosen and goes with the game. GRAPHICS / LEVEL DESIGN **10** For the Saturn I’d have to say these graphics are pretty good. When a wall breaks it looks pretty crappy but everything else is really detailed. The characters of this game look good and are in very great detail right down to the skateboard or quitar. The graphics are nice looking and are kind of blocky but they look nice. The levels are very detailed and look good to. The backgrounds look good and are also very detailed. The levels are really neat because they seam like 2D but are actually 3D. It’s really weird to play the game for the first time but its cool. CHALLENGE **HIGH** The cool thing in every fighting game is the ability to change the challenge of the game, which adapts the game to and player. Fighting Vipers can be as easy or as hard as you want it to be which makes it nice for begginers who haven’t played many fighting games. This game should provide quite a challenge for anyone.Read full review
I first ordered this game and it turned out to have a broken case, but then I ordered a spare case which took care of that. I feel proud to own this Sega Saturn exclusive (alongside NiGHTS); I may not be a combo-executioner, but with a few tries I cleared a session for the first time. For those that are sensitive about the case, maybe look elsewhere for a copy in a better condition, but other than that this is a worthwhile game!

Excellent 3D fighting game. It's worth a try but i'd suggest getting Fighter's Mega Mix over this one instead. It has an interesting mechanic similar to Soul Calibur 4 and later where your armor can break from being attacked.
This game is fun

if you like to fight and have a good time doing it i recommened this game its awesome to do fighting and i love this game it is one of my favorite fighting games
I like the City tower stage, and I decided to buy it because I thought it would be a great game for us to play.
It's like Virtua Fighter w/weapons. Fighters Megamix is better. If you don't have Fighters megamix, this will keep you occupied.
