Other than being based off the movie, and the MK esque digitized graphics?
As far as I remember, the home version played like Super Turbo, but also was the first game with EX moves. I think FeiLong and Hawk wasnt in it, but they had Sawada, and Akuma had supers. It should be noted that Capcom Japan programmed the home version game as well. That was stated by the guy on here (SRK) that helped with the aracde version.
So was there some super silly broken shit? Or was it solid, but had too much stigma attached from the movie?
I popped in the PSX version yesterday, that game plays nothing like ST. It is far from solid. I don’t know how much was broken about it, but it had absolutely terrible gameplay.
I’ve got a soft spot for this game. Basically, you HAVE to play it when you’re buzzed to really enjoy it. Yes, the game is crazy, but everyone’s got broken shit (hello low AND high Tiger Shots, double-fireballs), and the absolute ZANINESS that is Sawada.
Ah, Sawada. I forget the actor’s name, but, I remember reading when he tried out for the part of Ryu which was already cast, the producers was so impressed with his martial art ability, they created Sawada.
If you’ve got the time to search for it, a few years ago on of the developpers on that game made a thread on here and answered everyone’s questions about it. It’s a really great read.
