2) Introduction
==================================
Lightning Legend is a 3D fighting game which was released for the Japanese
PSOne by Konami in 1996. The game features some excellent character designs,
great graphics by PSOne standards, and a story mode which is full of unlockable
items and secrets.

The gameplay is easy to pickup, and uses most of the standard fighting game
movement/button combos that most players have been accustomed to for years.
The controls aren't as precise or tight as the more well known titles in its
genre, but overall the game is very playable.

The original Playstation release used the long since abandoned thick CD cases,
and came with a set of cards printed with each characters artwork and
movelists.
