Man, I am old! As in OLD!
I have no choice but to admit it because I can still
remember the time when Street Fighter II first came to the arcade and I was
looking at it wondering what the fuss was about. Well, the most famous fighting
game in history just turned 25, so I am officially OLD!
It’s hard to believe but Street Fighter first came out in
1987. Of course, the franchise didn’t become a mega-hit till Street Fighter II
came out but the original Street Fighter was the one that started the ball
rolling. It’s amazing but till now, Street Fighter II’s controls (6 buttons,
joystick movement) and gameplay (special moves, big cast of characters) are the
base of almost all fighting games. That tells you how influential the game is.
