"What did you expect?" A very limited few of games turned movies live up to the greatness that they were spawned from. Street Fighter being one of them. Mortal Kombat, though the chicas in leather were delicious, made me yak. Real time Street Fighter. I don't even have to comment on that one. And the biggest joke of the movies spawned from games? Ever see Mario Brothers? -----Original Message----- > From: Ranma3434@aol.com [mailto:Ranma3434@aol.com] Sent: Wednesday, January 31, 2001 2:11 PM To: tenchi@ml.usagi.org Subject: SFAlpha "the movie" SPOILERS AT VERY BOTTOM Welp, yesterday I got my copy of one of the newest animes based on the greatest fighting game series ever(Street Fighter). It didn't live up to my expectations ;but few things ever do. ^_^ It was alright though.... It would've been better than the movie(animated!), but...well I can't tell because then i'd spoil it. Gamerepublic gave it an excellent rating so maybe it's just me. I'd definetly recommend it for SF fans especially for those of you who love Ryu. "The true fighter enters the arena with all his power at the reign." -Akuma SPOILERS DOWN!!! I just can't help it!!!! I have to say these things!! It didn't have a conclusion! I mean it ended right when Ryu and Akuma finally fight! On top of that there was no INSTANT HELL MURDER!!!!! I mean what the hell!?! That move is the trademark move of both Evil Ryu and Akuma why wasn't it even mentioned!?! I also was disappointed by the excessive use of the Hadoken. Maybe i'm maturing ,but i'm getting tired of seeing excessive beam or energy use in animes. I personally would've appredciated more fight scenes with excellent choriography. Besides those things a couple points in the story leave you hanging(yep it's not just the ending). Anyways, this may have just been me, but it could've easily been A LOT better. = p "Has another fool come to my island to die?" -Akuma
