I mean, at best it's pointless, slow and ugly. If it's all you could get, perhaps it would do, but you'd be better off with any of the SNES verions of the real thing.retroking1981 wrote:I'm starting to think I underrated it with a 6. I fancy playing it again tbh, I'm gonna have to do some co-op when I get a chance. Maybe that'll reveal the flaws, or possible go the other way? If it's literally SSFII in digitised clothing, surely it's a 10? Maybe a 9 because of the inferior art style. But as a fan of the shit film even they hold some positives for me. I'd like to see some contempory reviews of it to see what all the hate was about.Wariospeedwagon wrote:I remember being really impressed when I rented that one with my next door neighbour back in the day.

I'd still rather play Tuff E Nuff again TBH.Moot_Geeza wrote:It's a fair point regarding the perception of it though, if it's just a reskinned Street Fighter 2 with dodgy visuals and slightly sloppier gameplay, doesn't that still make it better than the vast majority of one on one fighters on home consoles at the time?
That’s on the Switch wish list. Might wait until it’s dirt cheap though.retroking1981 wrote:@monkey Wonderboy was a great remake. The way you could change the graphics and music was amazing, I found myself flicking between the two on every area.
It's a very different game, but the original Wonderboy was remade as Returns Remix which I thought was decent to.

At this point, we'd all spent the last few years playing top quality conversions of SF2 on 16-bit consoles and now we'd upgraded and all that was on offer was a version that lacked all the style, flow and impact of those previous games, and looked plain nasty. That it's mechanically sound doesn't make it feel worth playing. I think most of the reviews would still be in the 5 or 6 range, which seems about right. In the end there's just no reason to play it, except perhaps for some fondness for the film itself.

I'm tempted as the last one I played was III, which was the 5th I'd played in as many years, I got burned out.
Out of interest was is this? The 12th game in the series?

You know I’m not actually sure, I’ve missed a good few then bounced off Origins, went back a couple of years later and loved it. Straight on to this and it’s easily one of the finest games I’ve ever played.
Highly recommended dude.

What happened after III?
The whole Desmond Miles/animus concluded with that.
Is there a bigger story arc still or are they self contained now?
