Reception
GameZone's Dakota Grabowski gave the game a 4.5 out of 10, saying "After hours upon hours of competitive gameplay, Samurai Shodown: Sen didn’t serve enough entertainment value to satisfy my tastes. It’s a shame since the series has long been one of the more popular franchises among hardcore fighting fans."
Xbox Evolved's Michael Ogunnubi gave the game a 7.5 out of 10, saying "Overall, it's not world class material, but it's decent, and I truly found Samurai Shodown Sen to be pretty fun. It's not like previous iterations as the gameplay is watered down for attempts to change it with brutality, which I thought actually worked to some extent. If you go into it, not expecting typical Samurai Shodown, you'll enjoy it."
PixlBit gave Samurai Shodown Sen a 1.5/5 and stated that this is a "very poor fighting game that lacks balance and accessibility which will make it unenjoyable both for fighting game veterans and newcomers." The review recommended to purchase the Samurai Shodown Anthology Wii compilation or XBLA arcade re-releases for gamers that are interested in the series.

Famous quotes containing the word reception:
“To aim to convert a man by miracles is a profanation of the soul. A true conversion, a true Christ, is now, as always, to be made by the reception of beautiful sentiments.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Satire is a sort of glass, wherein beholders do generally discover everybody’s face but their own; which is the chief reason for that kind of reception it meets in the world, and that so very few are offended with it.”
—Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
“But in the reception of metaphysical formula, all depends, as regards their actual and ulterior result, on the pre-existent qualities of that soil of human nature into which they fall—the company they find already present there, on their admission into the house of thought.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
