This is the longest I&#8217;ve ever labored on a guide in my 12+ years of writing FAQs.  It all started about a month ago when I began researching and testing out my old games to see what precisely the difference between <b>Vampire Savior<\/b>, <b>Vampire Savior 2<\/b> and <b>Vampire Hunter 2<\/b> was.  I was updating <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sfgalleries.net\/\">SFGalleries<\/a> to include the <b>Vampire\/Darkstalkers<\/b> games and realized I was a little confused.  In looking through guides and FAQs, I could not find a very clear explanation about specifically <i>what<\/i> the difference was!  Adding to the confusion was the unique history of all the game&#8217;s ports.  As you&#8217;ll read (if you have interest), the release history goes as follows (Japanese releases unless underlined)<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Vampire Savior<\/b> (Arcade)\n<li><b>Vampire Hunter 2<\/b> (Arcade)\n<li><b>Vampire Savior 2<\/b> (Arcade)\n<li><b>Vampire Savior<\/b> (Saturn)\n<li><b>Vampire Savior: EX Edition<\/b> (PS1)\n<li><b><u>Darkstalkers 3<\/u><\/b> (PS1)\n<li><b>Vampire Chronicle: For Matching Service<\/b> (DC)\n<li><b>Vampire Chronicle: The Chaos Tower<\/b> (PSP)\n<li><b><u>Darkstalkers Chronicle: The Chaos Tower<\/u><\/b> (PSP)\n<li><b>Vampire: Darkstalkers Collection<\/b> (PS2)\n<li><b>Vampire Resurrection<\/b> (PS3\/X360)\n<li><b><u>Darkstalkers Resurrection<\/u><\/b> (PS3\/X360)\n<\/ul>\n<p>Now, the last two aren&#8217;t out yet, but I fully intend to cover them when they arrive in March.   Until then, enjoy the <a href=\"https:\/\/slateman.net\/faqs\/vampire_savior.txt\">vast, sprawling Systems Guide<\/a>.  It should answer any question that exists in regards to that the differences are and which system port is the best.  It was a fun guide to write and, as I mention in there, the worst part was having to wait to finish\/publish it.  Enjoy!!!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/slateman.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/vampire-logo.gif\" alt=\"vampire-logo\" width=\"336\" height=\"113\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1087\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OK, I&#8217;m done.
