Last Bronx ~Tokyo Bangaichi~ simply known as Last Bronx outside Japan, sometimes abbreviated to "LasBro" is a 3D fighting game developed by Sega-AM3 on the Sega Model 2 mainboard. This is the first motion captured weapon fighting game released in Japanese game centers on June 1996, two years before System 12's Soul Calibur (July 1998). Home versions, shortened to Last Bronx, were produced for contemporary Sega game console and Windows systems. In Japan, the popular Last Bronx franchise was novelized and serialized into comics and radio drama. A VHS video documenting the motion capture process used for the game and introducing the characters was released in 1996. A year later, Takashi Shimizu directed the live-action movie (V-Cinema). On June 29, 2006, Sega released Tokyo Bangaichi on PlayStation 2 as a tenth anniversary celebration. [source:wikipedia]
