The greatest fighting game ever.
The game starts you off with 16 characters. Ryu, E.honda, blanka, guile, ken, Chun li, Zangief, Balorg, vega, sagat, M bison, Cammy, Dee jay, T. hawk and Fei long.. A cast of 16 characters is huge for its time. So you know this game will last for quite a while. Each characters are from differnt reigons like USA and thailand. Each character has there own stage. All are the same just with differnt backgrounds.
All 16 characters have no movesets like each others. There are so many button combos you can do which result in a crazy explosion of punches or large balls of light. EAch character will take a hell of alot of time to master. The games difficulty rating will frusterate many people but will entertain many also.
This game has no down sides besides bland stages and sometimes lagging attacks.
If you have a snes and not this game. Your a crazy kid.
