Dragon Valor - PlayStation 1 - Intro with prologue and chapter 1 gameplay [HD 1080p]
Randomised Gaming hasn't cover much PlayStation 1 content in a while so it's time to correct that. Dragon Valor is a scrolling beat'em up / hack and slash that adds in RPG elements. Rounded off with some classic 90s gaming rock and roll for the music. A solid title that isn't as polished as it should be the game itself is a retelling of the Namco Arcade game Dragon Buster. Each chapter follows the children of the player character from the previous one, so this title really is a family affair so to speak. While not the best game in the genre, it's still an enjoyable one even if it does get very repetitive in the later stages. As with so many PS1 titles it has fallen into the mist of time, but worth digging out if you like this type of game.
Note Dragon Valor runs at 30fps or 25fps in this case as this is the European version we captured.
