Fighter's History Dynamite/Karnov's Revenge

by **Bugle/Hawk'M** » Sun May 03, 2009 06:44

On a car ride down to a Street Fighter 4 tournament (I didn't play because I'm not that good, but it was a fun time) I played some Karnov's Revenge in the back seat of the car with friend. It was fun in a "this shit is retarded" sort of way. Karnov and his jumping 360 motion attack where he goes BALLOOOOON and it has invincibility, crosses up, and is just generally crazy. Ray (American dude) has some this crack shot-type attack that he can do in the air and stuff and it does has a huge hitbox that is like a square around the sprite. Also, when he says this it sounds like he's saying "broke kick." The German guy says "German!" every time he does his command grab, which he can cancel into from a fierce punch. Another grab character is Ryoko, AKA girl Ryu, who can also cancel into a command grab, and she has a 360 motion grab that does a great deal of dammage. Overall the game is nuts, it quite fast (matches are over quick) and for some reasons dizzys come up pretty much every round. It's quality stupid fun. Yay DataEast.

What I remember from Fighter's History is the announcer. It was hilarious to me how he said the names of the characters.

MIZO-GUCHI WIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNSSSSSSS!

Apparently, Japan had several tournaments of this game in the past few years, which means yes, they are taking it pretty seriously as a competitive fighting game. Seems to have a decent following in GGPO and 2df, as well. So it ain't just a worthless SF ripoff as people deemed before in the past.

I like using Karnov, Mizoguchi, Zazie and Lee.

Oh and the wrestler guy, Marstorious, is Italian according to the FAQ at Gamefaqs. It also reveals what seems to be the 1st ever fighting game pedophile.

Bugle: How were you playing this game in a car? ROM on the PSP or something??

The "BAAAAAAALDDDDDIIING!" fireball super? It's perfect to land when you've stunned the opponent. His super DP seems to be a lot more effective in combos, though.
