Street Fighter 2010: the Final Battle

Yep, this was suppose to be the end to the now popular Street Fighter series. Released after the first Street Fighter game & before it's SNES sequel. And believe me when I say this is nothing that you're going find familar or even like for that fact. Combat is reduced to three simple attacks. Punch, kick, & special. Forget about combos or pulling off spectacular moves.It plays almost like an side scroller with lot's of jumping & manuvering to even make it to the boss. To build up your special you must collect lots of hidden orbs throughout the relatively large arenas. And instead of fighting normal humans you are faced with goofy looking, super deformed monsters. And the game is incredibly difficult. Mostly because of your character's slow speed & limited amount of moves. Considering when some enemies fly & zip all across the stage. You have several other stages to follow through in the same orderly fashion. Once you beat the game after a long, agonizing play, you're treated to a short, crappy ending. Where's the fun at? The only reason anybody would even want to see this game is just for the fact that it's suppose to be a part of the Street Fighter continuum. When in actuality, the best you can do is steer clear of this heaping wreck of game.
