I own both, and personally, I think the Tengai Makyou game is miles ahead from Battle heat in every regards. Everything in this game screams Hudson soft... The animation is not full screen, but I have to admit it, it's the best fmv game graphics I've ever seen on any console to date. The game itself is a blast, and the control scheme reminds me of battle heat, in that you have to punch in combinations ( ex. Left, down, I ) to unlock moves. Mmmh, I should write a review for this game...
A review would be GREAT...if you can do one, please do, and send it to pcefx@pcengine-fx.com. I personally like Battle Heat more because it is a faster-paced game than Tengai, but both have their strengths and weaknesses.
