SHORYUKEN!
Street Fighter 2 is still around in arcade game joints in Seoul, but I'll tell you what, it sucks. I used to beat the living fook out of anyone when I was 14, but when I tried a few months ago I couldn't even pull of a dragon punch. Compared to Tekken 5 it's utter dump and some characters simply aren't capable of beating others - example, Balrog, the Mike Tyson-style boxer, cannot jump over HADUKENs. He must block, which zaps a little energy. Hasn't stood the test of time IMO. Mind you, on the SNES it's much easier to execute your moves and much better, but I was amazed how much the arcade blew for me because it was seminal teenage stuff. |

That's nothing. Have you ever played hockey with a branch and a frozen horse puck? |

hahaha. Dude..I'd love to walk into an arcade that still has this game around. I'd love to whip up on some youngin's with my Ken; slappin them around a bit with the fireball/jump/low punch/low jab/fierce dragon punch combination. LOL. Wouldn't that be something....
...... ok...ok...I'm a dork....leaves this thread in shame... |

| I firmly believe that the Virtua Fighter series is the greatest of all. Sucks that Microsoft won't import it to the 360. |
