Capcom
owns a legendary library of classic and recent
arcade software. To remind old timers of their
esteemed gameography and to introduce a new
generation to their retro classics, the company
releases a DVD retrospective which checks out 107
games that Capcom released to arcades from 1984 to
2002 with screenshots and documentary footage.
Viewers may flip through the arcade coin-ops in
chronological order to check out the evolution of
gaming genres and how the market eventually chose
one type of game (2D-fighting) over all others.
Games from the early years include titles such as
1942 and Bionic Commando while 1943
and F1 Dream shipped towards the late 80s.
Memorable names such as Varth, Muscle
Bomber, Mars Matrix, and all of the other
19XX shooters may also be viewed.
Fans of
fighting games may check out the entire Street
Fighter series shown in all its glory from the
original in 1987 to Street Fighter II in 1991. The
many sequels such as Championship Edition, Turbo,
the III Series, and Street Fighter Zero are also
collected together. Creator interviews, player
footage, and other information from the series are
also included to round out the experience. The
Vampire Saviour series, Rival Schools,
Star Gladiator, Capcom vs SNK 1 and 2,
and others also contribute to the fighting game
extravaganza. |
