yeah they were such good and fun games but they never really reached the mainstream audience. Killer Instinct was widely known and respected.

Killer instinct is great, especially on snes but it’s not the most underrated fighter.. for me it’s Power Stone. So much potential in this series

Jawsh6665d ago

Bloody Roar was a game that had a sick concept but wasn’t made the best. I’d say Killer Instinct was the opposite of that, it was well made but the roster of characters were so similar to every other fighting game in that era that it ended up feeling like more of the same. I could be wrong that’s just how I remember it at the time and I played a ton of KI on SNES because it was one of the first games I owned.

I loved this game in the arcade, my main was Jago, Ultra Combo!!! https://www.youtube.com/wat...

DivineHand1254d ago

That combo was way overkill 😂

PRIMORDUS4d ago

I know haha, I loved Jago.

You're kidding?
It enjoyed probably more success than it deserved.
Unlike Tobal 2

MeteorPanda4d ago

Tobal 2 was awesome. Sold really well cause art similarity to dragon ball

I remember trying my hardest to learn that "Ultra... Ultra.... Ultra...." finish. Such a great fighting game.

I can tell you definitely got some SNES time in. The slight differences in the ports due to hardware constraints were interesting. For example, the arcade version was Ultraaaa Coooommboooooooo! versus Ultra….Ultra….Ultra on the SNES.

Though SNES overachieved as a port for as demanding as a game KI was.The arcade version was one of the first cabinets with a dedicated hard drive and the SNES version was 32 megabyte cartridge which was huge for that system at the time.

jjb19813d ago

Yeah, for sure. My local childhood arcade was always packed and it was hard to get a game in but once the SNES version came out, I was hooked. I can still feel the click of the power button.

I've been following this, it's a shame as Billy is a POS and needs karma, but karl and his team really fumbled the court case. I'm not surprised at the verdict from the judge as the case was never really about his known cheating, but the seemingly now false claim from karl about apollo's passing being attributed to billy, and his lack of willingness to meaningfully backtrack and apologise for the claim.

Jingsing22d ago

Jobst also has his own controversies that were shown on Discord so I can't have much sympathy for him either. He is just one step away from that old tired angry at everything right wing manosphere.

SGT_Squirrel21d ago (Edited 21d ago )

"angry at everything right-wing manosphere"? What on earth are you talking about? lol You must be a libtard looking in the mirror again.

Alos8822d ago

Dude crossed a line when he made that claim about Apollo. Seems the second that was brought up the courts lost all interest in the cheating allegations and just focused on that instead.

LoveSpuds22d ago (Edited 22d ago )

What i find interesting is that i had only really been exposed to Jobst's content in respect of the court cases, so I thought it was a slam dunk that Billy would lose. Goes to show the dangers of relying on one interested party's 'version' of the facts I guess.

I am still left in no doubt that Mitchell is a scum bag mind you, and it really stings to thing of him getting that pay out too.

GooGobbler22d ago (Edited 22d ago )

Queenslander? I'll talk slower then. HAHAHAA

gigoran821d ago

I don't support either side passionately. One is a accused cheater with a lot of evidence against him, and the other has allegedly said some pretty spice stuff in the past. With this court case settled now I guess both of them at some point has told lies. I would think the right side to back is the one that is trying to prove Billy cheated.
