![]() ![]() She was interested in what I was doing, and glad I was keeping myself busy and achieving success. ![]() But she wanted me to leave her alone so she could continue reading. She could have just shrugged my personal victory off. I liked how she encouraged me to challenge myself. I said Mom, I just beat Street Fighter on easy! She said great job, now play it on normal. At the time, beating video games was rare. I remember beating the game for the first time. Maybe there was something about Ryu’s presence that tipped me off to his status. I could have thought that Honda was the main character. I mean, I know he is the first character the cursor lands on, but the cover of the game features Sagat and Honda. I don’t know why I thought he was the main character. I loved his normals, and I was drawn to him being that he was the main character of the game. But most of the time I played on the easiest difficulty, and most of the time I played as Ryu even though I couldn’t throw a fireball. I remember playing it quite a few times trying to beat it, and I eventually did find a really easy way to cheap out normal mode. ![]() I was drawn to this game from its presentation immediately. They accidently bought me quite a few amazing games, such as Mega Man X2, and Castlevania IV, and I would have never played these games as a child if it wasn’t for luck. They just knew I liked fighting games, and the video rental place was selling it for cheap, so they got it for me one year for Christmas. I say accidently, because they didn’t actually know that it was one of the greatest fighting games of all time. My parents accidently bought me this game. I had never heard of this game until I got it for Christmas one year. I was too young around the popularity of Street Fighter and I never lived near an arcade that I knew of. I think? I never played the game in arcades. Turbo was, and still is, one of the greatest fighting games of all time, and this was a damn fine port that nailed the look, sound, and feel of the arcade port. The first fighting game, and the only fighting game I would own for some time, was Street Fighter II Turbo Hyper Fighting, the Super Nintendo port of both Hyper Fighting and Turbo. I never owned the game, or any Mortal Kombat game, until Deadly Alliance on the PlayStation 2. I had dreams of waking up and seeing the game sitting in the slot of my Super Nintendo. I rented Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 many times. Being a child of the 90s, I was obsessed with the brutality, the fatalities, and a yellow ninja named Scorpion. The first fighting game series I loved was Mortal Kombat. ![]()
