If you think Marvel 3 is broken, you have no idea what kind of hilarity has transpired in the games of the past. Sengoku Basara X is one of my personal favorite obscure titles for this very reason. Made by Arc System Works in 2008, the game was so broken nearly every character had an infinite jab combo! This was just one example of the many different infinites, insta-kills, and combos that literally lasted so long the time would run out, that the game had to offer. Believe it or not, the fighting game community is still breaking this game, even today. Here are two new Sengoku Basara X videos that have popped up on Youtube within the last 24 hours.

Our first video is an Oichi combo showcase by . She mostly just kneels on the ground all day looking stoned while shadows beat you to death.

Our second video comes from  and it’s an infinite height combo that carries both characters up off the screen in an infinite string of aerial jabs until the time runs out.

Even though the game was remarkably broken, it was actually quite fun. If you get a chance to unearth a copy then you should pop it into your PS2 to see what “broken” really means.

    Hardly any difference, except in MvC3 you have shit ton more memorizing, projectile spam and you leave them with about 10% hp unless you use a lot of meter or x factor.

    The only problem with these combos, is that there’s damage scaling.

    Everyday people are familiar with dribbling a ball.  HnK fighters are familiar with dribbling other HnK fighters.

    Kids are using ‘broken’ for everything nowadays, they don’t understand the word. Kindly take a look at games like this and HnK, then come back and tell me MvC3 is ‘broken’.

    Personally I would love to Hokuto No Ken rebalanced, and re-released on PSN and XBL. There would probably be a ton of people willing to buy it just on the fact that it’s Fist of the North Star; and in all honesty this series needs some video game redemption after that shitastic dynasty warriors clone game they released last year (or whenever). It always amazes me how they can bring the Japanese games that nobody wants here, but make us import the shit we really want -_-

    The thing I hate most about these type of combos, is that they are hard to visualy understand what’s going on, and even if they weren’t broken, the combos seem to be stop animated, as the moves cancel into eachother they literaly skip from the moves connection frame to the next so from a punch being thrown, and the next frame is straight to the splits, there’s nothing in between, so ny combo where yhe movement can’t be animated woithout skipping the bodies movement from one position to the other is wrong.

    Ahh How I love SBx and HNK, I modded my PS2 just to play HNK. The PS2 has quite a few undiscovered gems in terms of fighters that are ALOT of fun. HNK is a blast, all the characters are pretty worthy too except for Mr.Heart.

    Now if everyone would stop pretending Capcom is the only company making fighing games perhaps we’d see a sequel to HNK. One can only hope…

    Frost has a similar infinite to the second video. It requires you slow the opponent with freeze, do his counter and then spamming the taunt button to bounce the enemy. After about 20 bounces, you can launch and B C them into heaven for as long as you like. Ended up trolling with this at Otakon a few years back.
