Good Dos or Win 95 Fighting Games

[phreakindee]

Certainly One Must Fall 2097 is the best DOS only fighter. Its prequel, One Must Fall, should be avoided though, its a bad SF knockoff.

Surprised nobody has mentioned Xenophage and Rise of the Robots! Actually, I'm not. 2 of the worst fighters ever. One you fight with digitized aliens and freaks, and the other you fight with a digitized naked blue man against robots. Horrible, but hilarious in short bursts.

Sango Fighter and its sequel aren't half bad either. And yes, avoid the first SF game on PC. What a load of crap. SFII Turbo was okay though.

I have the first Street Fighter on PC. It's godawful. It's so bad I can barely bring myself to run it - and DOSBox can't even handle the game right!

What strength! but don't forget there are many guys like you all over the world.


Mortal Kombat on DOS is pretty good.

Actually, that wasn't so much a prequel as much as it was an incomplete beta version, never officially available.

Well, I bought a copy of it in a store, so... officially or not, it was out there. As "Shareware", it was titled something like "Kung-Fu Fighting"

It got shoved onto a bunch of shareware compilation CD's from what I remember.

Indeed, as well as a floppy stand-alone disk or two. Wish I still had it - I may, but can't seem to locate it right now. Mountains of shareware disks in storage, so who knows

I hate to say it, but this list starts and ends with One Must Fall 2097. Everything else is either mediocre (Sango Fighter), or done better elsewhere (Street Fighter series).

OMF is pure win. I spent so much time playing through the tournament mode it's not even funny.
