Super Puzzle Fighter 2 Turbo is this episodes Retro Gaming Night and boy is it a mouthful to say. But its not a complex game, no it is not. For in fact its a simple puzzle game featuring the street fighter characters.
Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo is one of Capcom's quirkiest, yet extremely addictive, experimental games using its iconic Street Fighter characters.

So I have been gaming for... a long time now. I have had most consoles over the years at one point or the other, but one of the few I had day one was the original Sony PlayStation. Why is this significant? Because the system is celebrating its twenty year anniversary this week (technically yesterday here in North America). I absolutely loved this system and put together a lot of my fondest video gaming memories playing it. So, to celebrate twenty years, I am listing out my top twenty games today.
GameDynamo - If a franchise proves popular enough, it's inevitable that it'll see not only sequels, but spin-offs into different types of games and audiences. Sometimes, they'll even take a franchise way out into left field, territory that most people would never consider unless in a chemically altered state. This doesn't necessarily mean the spin-off will be a bad game, and at the very least it'll offer an entertaining display of bizarreness. Here are ten spin-offs that took familiar characters into the least familiar territory possible, the kind that elicits no response but "What The Hell?!"
Nintendo-only, eh? And Theatrythm? Really? A music-based game for a franchise renown more for its incredible music than anything else was a WTH spin-off? Really?
The only spin-offs that provoke that kind of reaction from me are things that just... don't... make... any... sense. Like Valkyria going from PS3 to PSP to mobile phones. Or SE looking at its two best, biggest roleplaying franchises and saying, "you know what would be great? If these were MMOs."
Yikes.
Or that Mass Effect 2 spin-off a few months ago that sucked so hard.
Or those weird Fallout FPS spin-offs with the vampires and orcs. WEIRD.
Or that Persona spin-off where you just sit in a bar the whole time chatting with a shemale and playing arcade games. WEIRD.
Or turning Age of Empires into an MMO.
What I'm saying is... there's a lot out there. And THESE are the ones you pick? Really?
Quite a flawed list, Theatre rhythm I really would not include in this list it's great.
A lot of those spin-offs actually ended up being pretty successful - I wouldn't call them all WTH.
Such a great game. I probably put 400 hours into my Sega Saturn copy.
