Description
You might already be familiar with this long-running arcade and home-system 3D fighting series … or perhaps you live in a cave. No matter where you live, you'll enjoy the ultra-violent action of the world's most popular fighting game, in its original format. In this first installment of the game that revolutionized arena-style, hand-to-hand combat, you'll choose from eight unique characters, each with his or her own special moves and defenses. If you can defeat your opponents in two out of three rounds, you'll advance to the next stage. The blood flows freely, as each match ends with the victor attempting to pull off a finishing move that will leave the defeated party mangled, decapitated, or exploded into bits. Whether you're looking for a history lesson or just a great fighting game, this classic still takes the cake.
