Battle Arena Toshinden (Game Boy, 1996)

The precident setting game for the Playstation, and one of the very first games out, Battle Arena Toshinden is a long tested, but never forgotten game that shows you how to fight in a 3-Dimensional environment with 3-Dimensional characters. While the graphics and sound may be below the current standard, there must be a bit of room given for the fact that it was released years ago with the Playstation launch.

Regardless of how you look at this, this game is recommended for any first time fighting game player that is looking to learn the fine arts of a 3-Dimensional fighter without getting into the techincal side of Tekken, or the brute force fighting of Soul Caliber. Worth a weekend rental for those who are looking for an old-school fighter, this game is also worth a purchase for any Playstation game collector looking to have a piece of the system's past.
