Ha ha. Thanks for the link Prof. BTW, where have I seen the first animation from? Is it a Ranbu that Ryo would perform? The ending stance is Ryo-esque. The second animation is clearly the SGS. And the third is a standard SF2 Ryu/Ken battle.The last one... is insande. Very funny, damn, they really captured the gameplay in the last two animations. Another question, who is the other character supposed to be in the last animation?

Question below, but it may contain spoilers for the last animation.

Spoiler (Highlight to view) -

BTW, I've read that in the original Karateka, your mission is to rescue your girlfriend from some karate mob boss or something. But after you defeat the boss character and reach your GF, your actually supposed to jump kick her and not just run up and hug her. If you hug her, you get the bad ending. If you kick her, you get the good one. The reason for this is because if you hug her, she thinks your a goon (she might be blind folded) and thus, she kicks you in the groin. If you jump kick her, you knock her out, but at least you don't get hurt. Or something. Anyway, why the hell does she throw you off the cliff in this modified ending!?


End of Spoiler

Back when three punches and three kicks were the pinnacle of martial arts mastery. And there weren't appoximately 47 billion horrible Hadoken jokes.

Fun stuff. I'm impressed by how accurate the animations are, especially given the old-style graphics. The fights were surprisingly realistic, too; I didn't notice a single attack or move that looked out of place.

Street Fighter's been done to death, though...when's someone going to do a homage to Fatal Fury?

Luisnan - False. False, false, false. You've been had. There's just the one ending (other than getting killed, obviously). You are supposed to run into her arms. No ifs, ands, or buts. That's the correct thing to do. You've been had.

(The fact that you cannot jumpkick in this game should've tipped you off, greenhorn. )
