supposedly you can in the documentation, but i've never actually tried it. I waste too much time as it is. 😉
 
Killer Instinct rocked for days!!!! Tekken2 was kickass when that appeared. It'd be a tough choice between SF2 and Tekken2, though I didn't master nearly as many moves with Tekken. K.I. got a bit repetitive, but for some reason the others didn't.

Champion Ed. is a very good game to restore, Lithium381. What are you using for a monitor? Does the old one still work?

Kylie Minogue was in Street Fighter. I remember one scene where she shot a rocket launcher and bent over. The one redeeming scene in the movie 🙂

lol I can remember the rocket part but not the bending over part. So funny to see Kylie to the martial arts move t hough.

Yes Tekken2 rocked hard. Loved it. Loved T3 also and TTT for the tag element. T4 was alright, didn't play it as much only played it as I was I'm a fan of Tekken series. PLayed more CvS2 then T4. T4 wasn't great for me.

that's because you dont know how to play.

sf2, sf3 (all 3 versions), sf alpha series, CvSNK, MvC.. they're all completely different games. they may have some of the same moves, but hwen you get into the top teir players, you can see the differences
 
A question for you all. Do you remember them making a Street Fighter 2 Turbo edition? I remember back at the arcades there were turbo editions, special editions. The things about these versions were you could fireball one after another after another. Then you could jump super high into the sky and avoid these fireballs, you could sonic boom one after another, often times going in front of your own sonic boom and it'll pass through you, then you could sonic boom again and it would hit your opponent twice.
 
Turbo was good, but I don't remember...was it CE turbo that was the best? or just champ ed.
I played Marvel vs. Capcom a couple times, but it wasn't nearly as fair. In other words, I got spanked.
FPS's are what I play now. I'd have to start doing finger exercises to any good at fighting games now. Plus my subscription to EGM ran out years ago.

yeah, we used to call it the "rainbow" edition because the sf logo was rainbow colored. You could do any move in the air, you could launch multiple projectiles with the jab version going REALLY slow and the fierce version going REALLY fast, and on some versions you didnt have to charge for 2 seconds on the charge moves. (i.e. sonic boom). Some versions also made fireballs curve and go up or down depending on what button you used. You could launch so many projectiles with the jab versions that the game would actually slow down because of so many sprites on the screen at once. lol
