Street Fighter II
Street Fighter II (Sutorīto Faitā Tsū – ストリートファイターII) is an early arcade game by CapcomThe second part is considered the most successful of the game series of the same name.
the story
Yes, beat 'em up games also have a story. Some participants have personal motives to participate. Among them Ryu, who is looking for new challenges and Chun-Li, who wants to take revenge on M. Bison for the death of her father. Guile is also targeting M. Bison. Honda wants to make the art of sumo world famous. All 8 selectable characters have their own motives for their participation in the tournament.
The game principle
You choose one of the 8 characters and find yourself in an arena. The goal of the round is to lower the opponent's life bar to 0. You have to do it before your opponent can do it on you or the time limit is counted down. In combat, you use kicks and punches that are weak, medium or strong. If you hit your opponent, points will be deducted from his life bar.
Attacks and combos
Weak attacks are all the faster. Combos are available and prevent counterattacks. If you push in the opposite direction to where your character is looking, you go into a defensive position and block counterattacks. If your opponent blocks, you have the opportunity to break through the blockade and throw him to the ground. Use special key combinations to carry out special attacks. They do a lot of damage, but they take some practice. Street Fighter 2 has an arcade mode. In this you can compete against all fighters. Including the "bosses".
Game motivation
Street Fighter 2 has different endings, which motivates it to be played through again. If you have won all fights and tournaments, you are through with the game. Unfortunately there is no training mode in the game.
Graphics and sound
In the beat 'em up genre, Street Fighter 2 was the groundbreaking game. The graphics are detailed and colorful. The sound is good for SNES too. Kicks and punches were well set to music.
Conclusion
Street Fighter 2 is a classic in the beat 'em up genre. The graphics are very good for the age and the sound fits. The gameplay is not difficult, but it is complex. The scope is a bit small, so the replayability isn't particularly high once you've gone through it all. In any case, the game is a lot of fun.
