This is a play-through using Sieguei in the PS1 game Critical Blow. Read on below for more information...

Sieguei is the 2nd to last boss of this game, and he is an unlockable playable character.

===== About Sieguei =====
He is a android/cyborg design, more like a 'cyber-ninja' type, which explains why he is relatively small framed and "slim". If I were to guess, he's probably the bodyguard of the game's final boss.

I found him to be a good character to use, he's pretty fast, light on his feet and his Wire trap move, which when you catch the opponent with it, gives you a slight breather if your opponent goes aggressive on you.

===== Additional Information =====
---- His sub-boss is EX Rickey.

===== About Critical Blow =====
Critical Blow is the sequel to Genei Tougi: Shadow Struggle. It's a good game, and the whole thing is very well rounded off. Perhaps a unique aspect of this game is the Card system which you can use to 'customize' an existing character (somewhat).

Whilst the game graphics is 3D, it plays like a 2D fighter, e.g. Street Fighter style. The gameplay feels complete and well polished. If you asked me to sum up the gameplay, I would call it a mix of Rival Schools and Street Fighter.

During fights, I do like the 'angled perspective' camera view when the screen scrolls towards the left or right edge.
