So, if you're winning, you're stuck with that character. Once you've picked your character, you can't pick a new one, till you lose a fight. No multiplayer tournaments unlike practically every other conversion of the game. Without a proper tournament mode, you're limited to simple one on one fights. Even modem play fails to lift this game out of the gutter. What you're left with after all that is a grating, clunky, incomplete game. Nurse, call a crash team I think we're losing Mr StreetFighter. Which deals the final crippling blow to the gameplay. So where are they, then? Down the back of the sofa? Lying in a box at Capcom HQ perhaps? Because they sure as hell aren't in the game. ' Includes hot new modes, including Group Battle, Tournament, and Time Challenge', boasts the box. SSF2 also has the biggest box-blurb porkie since GT Interactive's ' MK3 modem play' fib.

This isn't exactly what I'd expect from a professional conversion. Similary, all the other characters have been stretched, shrunk, and squashed sideways, giving the whole game a rather odd look. Even Chun-Li, with her unfeasibly powerful thighs, able to lift her into the air, seems to have acquired the shape and stature of a garden rake. Not only are they blocky, and the characters poorly animated, the characters seem to have been subjected to some sort of unusual apparatus. But what else is there? How about the graphics? Poor quality So, sonically, it's not looking too good. Every single one sounds extremely muffled. Try it on a standard ***SB16*** and it sounds even worse. The music in SSF2 really is appalling, and discordant. Actually, I'm probably being a little unfair.
This game, on the other hand, has music which sounds like it was created by a six year old child using a small electric organ.

The PC version of SSF2 Turbo had a re-scored, but excellent CD soundtrack, and the floppy version of the game had a MIDI soundtrack, which was nearly as good. The arcade version of the game had a thumping soundtrack to the game. An integral part of any game, and possibly the first thing that you notice when you load up the game. I'll be as objective as I can about this I'm not going to just slag a game off without explaining myself.įirst of all, there's the music. It's just that this is such a poor conversion that it can't possibly stand up against other games. Easily the worst game I've reviewed since Voyeur II, and that's not saying much.It's not that I don't like the Street Fighter games. You see, there's one fatal flaw, one teensy weensy thing that stops SSF2 from taking the beat-em-up crown. And does it? Is it the game that will stomp all over the crushed remains of Pray for Death, MK3, and the rest of the PC beat-em-up crowd? Super Street Fighter Poo After all, V.I.E surely have realised that it would have to be something special in order to get the gamesplaying public to shell out their hard earned cash for it. And indeed, you may well ask what the point of getting this game is, if a later version has already been released on the PC. It lacks the extra bits that Super SF 2 Turbo has. Confused? The gaming public certainly was.īut what this all means is that Super Street Fighter 2, the game which I'm reviewing, isn't the latest version of the game.
Finally came Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo which added yet more moves, and a super-meter which allowed you to perform new killer super-special moves. Then came Super Street Fighter 2 adding more moves, tweaks, and four all new characters. Then came Street Fighter 2 : Turbo , adding a few extra moves, and general tweaks. Then came Street Fighter 2: Championship Edition was released, allowing you to play the bosses. Perhaps I'd better explain Capcom's rather odd numeric system. It's actually a conversion of Super Street Fighter II . What is it? A bugless version of Super SF2 Turbo? A conversion of the all new Street Fighter Alpha? GBHĮr, no. And now, Virgin Interactive Entertainment and Capcom have decided to release yet another SF2 game.
#Super street fighter 2 Patch#
The former was more or less a straight copy of the Amiga version, and while the latter was graphically and sonically excellent, it was heavily bugged at the last count, patch number 6 had been released. The PC has its share of Street Fighting carnage too ,with conversions of the original Street Fighter 2, and also Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo. The latest chapter in the saga, Street Fighter Alpha 2 has just been released in the arcades, and its prequel Street Fighter Alpha has been converted to the Playstation. The numerous sequels and improved versions that were developed have been converted to a multitude of consoles and computers. It also managed to become probably the most converted game ever.
Street Fighter II was one of the first big one-on-one beat-em-ups, and went down a storm at the arcades, with its characters, combo, and general sprinking of broken teeth.
