grape Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 (edited) Hello, Can anybody still remember on this cult cover, which is showing the amazing painting with the tough battle between Chun Li, Blanka and Ryu? If yes, what are your opinions about that cover? cover ---> http://www.mobygames.com/game/covers/gameC...32/gameId,6239/ In the attachment there you can find the poster, which is showing the painting from this cover. I must take it down from the wall to make a scan. The poster was hanging there for about 12 years already. Regards Jan Edited June 9, 2006 by grape

Haitoku Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 The cover was certainly misleading as to what the game was actually about. I remember thinking what kind of situation these characters were in that they had to fight each other like that... Turns out the story was a lot more silly then I could have ever imagined.

Hurlshort Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 Seriously, it kick started an Arcade Renaissance. Give credit where credit is due.
Pidesco Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 I always thought the cover art was a bit crap, even way back when I was 12 and got it for my SNES. "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian tourist I am Dan Quayle of the Romans. I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands. Heja Sverige!! Everyone should cuffawkle more. The wrench is your friend.
Dark_Raven Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.
Pidesco Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 What? "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian tourist I am Dan Quayle of the Romans. I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands. Heja Sverige!! Everyone should cuffawkle more. The wrench is your friend.
Dark_Raven Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 I was refering to the first post. Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.
alanschu Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 Meh, when I saw the cover I figured it'd be a fighting game. Turns out I was right. In hindsight, they should have had Ryu fighting Chun Li, since that's pretty much what it always comes down to.
Skynet Posted June 10, 2006 Posted June 10, 2006 The cover to the original Megaman is way better. "Who could blame Skynet? He's such a cute, innocent, steel-bolted robot." -Gauntlet

Technically, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Streets of Rage, Final Fight, etc., are "beat-em-up's." :D But yeah - story, WTF? LOL!

alanschu Posted June 10, 2006 Posted June 10, 2006 No. They were farking awesome beat-em-ups! Everyone complains about the death of the RPG and the death of the Adventure game. Where's the love for the long lost game genre that was the beat-em-up??
LoneWolf16 Posted June 10, 2006 Posted June 10, 2006 I miss Battletoads and Double Dragons. I had thought that some of nature's journeymen had made men and not made them well, for they imitated humanity so abominably. - Book of Counted Sorrows 'Cause I won't know the man that kills me and I don't know these men I kill but we all wind up on the same side 'cause ain't none of us doin' god's will. - Everlast
