Forgive my last comment I just looked up Amiga yesterday The Themes are messed up Title / Character Select are the same Blanka-E Honda-Sagat have the Character select theme Zangief-Dhalsim-Guile-Ryu-Vega-M.Bison have Ken's theme Ken and the 2nd bonus stage have Ryu's theme Balrog has his theme which is used again in the 1st bonus level the one where Chun Li keeps getting burned that one I don't recognize
It was wrong. And the disk swapping man. Did no one mention that? You had to swap loads of times before each fight. But it was better than nothing and we had many games of this.
I was 7 or 8 and I knew that something's wrong with the animation, but couldn't tell what. I used to scream at my brother, who used to beat the shit out of me in this game, that 'I can't see the characters' (the poor animation issue).
The next big title I got was Mortal Kombat, which was also really fucked up conversion, but at least it FELT like Mortal Kombat.
Amiga COULD do so much better, but we had to wait several years for Shadow Fighter to really show it.
I remember my friend having SF2 on the SNES and wanting it SO bad,
My mum and dad got me the Amiga (as thats all I had and loved) version for christmas and it came on like 4/5 disks and was pretty much the shittest xmas present ever. My fault for wanting it so bad though :P
Carbon, are u kidding? Amiga was not more powerful than the arcade. Try the arcade in mame and u will understand. Amiga had big problems with beatém ups, and u are right about US Gold (crap company). SNES version was good and very playable, almost identical to the arcade. But still, the arcade kicks ass!!
The SEGA Mega Drive / SEGA Genesis version of the game is the most arcade accurate home console version. Hell it even leaves in the entire intro sequence [except it changes the black guy who gets knocked-out to a white guy... why? Who knows, it's nothing racist about it.] But yeah... SEGA version is amazing. :)
This Amiga port however is pretty decent. Though not 100%.
What annoys me most, is that british UK magazines positively reviewed this game, giving 80% or so, fooling many Amiga users to buy it - I remember how disappointing it was compared to my school mates who had SNES or Megadrive versions.....
I was only referring to the sound quality because the megadrive or genesis uses the fm sounds everything sounds distorted or warbled. I am still a big sega fan and have owned everything they made.
That's weird, the sega I've got sounds great, no distortions. It's the Sega Megadrive II, the square one with red buttons and ability to support the cd-rom drive expansion thing which I never got. That the one you have?
the sega version was ok..but nowhere near as good as the original arcade..the sound chip in the genesis was very good, running on similar hardware as the arcade as terms as the music goes..but the genesis had VERY shitty voice capabilites. they were very staticky. the snes version on the other hand had better colors and graphics, and voice effects. imho.
I like the music in the amiga version. They were originally going to have music that did sound much like the original (FM-synth, yuck), fourtnatly they changed the musician, and this "heavier" soundtrack was used instead :)
Reminds me of the MS-DOS version. But the it looks like it's maybe slightly more playable than the PC version. I remember this was one of the first DOS PC games I ever saw and it gave me a very bad first impression of PC games (I felt sorry for PC gamers who didn't own an SNES). Of course, my opinion of PC games changed radically once I played ol' DOOMSKI (yes I know this pertains to AMIGA but I still get the basic idea) Also, is Chun Li wearing lipstick? That's hot;D
This was such a strange one. At first glance it's another U.S.Gold Style botched Final Fight conversion, but in fact the game played surprisingly well and was good fun but it wasn't really any patch on the original.
Horrid animation and colour schemes seemed to seal it's fate. If it looked a bit smoother it probably would have got away with it. The completely inaccurate music is another story though, I think the music department listened once to the songs and guessed the rest. Dreadfull!
I think they ran out of disc space or memory or something regarding the music actually. I don't think it was ever intended to use the character select theme as a tune in the actual game but knowing deadlines and lack of resources, etc, they had to make do with what had been done. I'm sure with time, SF2 on the A500 could be really accurate to the coin-op (just make sure you have a six button joystick / pad eh?).
This port is pretty awful! The graphics are ok, but the rest is awful, especially the music! Gotta love that horrible vibrato on most of the lead parts, and the completely inaccurate renditions of the original music. Insulting to the original!
The best Street Fighter II ever made! Wonderful! Me and my brothers used to spank ourselves cause the lots of cheating possibilities of any character. The playability is very particular! Great, Great, Great! (the disk swapping used to be awful, indeed)
