100 "Stories."

Thought I'd pop up 100 games I'd played and give a short story of my experience with them, in no particular order.

Fatal Fury

1. Fatal Fury

Used to play ye olde Fatal Fury one while waiting to get on the Street Fighter 2 machine. God DAMN the SNES version was terrible.

Fatal Fury 2

2. Fatal Fury 2

I bought a Neo Geo AES and the original Fatal Fury was the pack in. This sequel was what I bought with it. Man I thought it was so amazing back in the day at home...

Fatal Fury Special

3. Fatal Fury Special

Then I saved up my pennies and bought THIS Fatal Fury, probably my all time fave only barely eeking out...

Real Bout Fatal Fury Special

4. Real Bout Fatal Fury Special

If you liked FFS then just play this a bit, it's got pretty much everything from FFS and more. No Big Bear or Jubei though.

Fatal Fury 3: Road to the Final Victory!

5. Fatal Fury 3: Road to the Final Victory!

Augh I used to go to a local burrito joint, place an order, then walk down a block to a corner "liquor store" and play this game. It was way too hard! This is coming from a guy who could beat FFS and RBFF games on level 8 difficulty.

Real Bout Fatal Fury

6. Real Bout Fatal Fury

Nobody ever had this locally so I couldn't get into it much. =(

Real Bout Fatal Fury 2: The Newcomers

7. Real Bout Fatal Fury 2: The Newcomers

This was a pretty darn good version of Fatal Fury! The new characters weren't TOO obnoxious like a certain game....

Street Fighter II: The World Warrior

9. Street Fighter II: The World Warrior

For some reason this game doesn't come up if you put in "Street Fighter 2" I guess it needs the roman numerals? My high school buds and I all pooled our cash to rent a SF2 arcade cabinet during our junior year but when we went to get it they didn't have one in stock!

Street Fighter

10. Street Fighter

I don't know why folks act like this game was some unheard of game. All my buds knew of it, we even played the "big button" version where you had to hit a giant padded button as hard as you can to get more damage!

Final Fight

11. Final Fight

One of my all time faves, maybe THE all time fave. I first saw this game at Japan Town Bowl in San Francisco. It was just EATING quarters fucking NON-stop in a way no Street Fighter 2 could ever compare.
