This basic attack was crude, sloppy, and showed none of the finesse a proper Street Fighter should have. If he was lucky, Blanka would occasionally erupt in ...[Read More]

I am back in 1991 again at the Annapolis Mall (I can’t remember the official name – roll with it). I’m playing Street Fighter II for the first time and loving what would be a long affair with Capcom fighting games.

It was fascinating, engagi...[Read More]
