Cervantes De Leon from Soul Calibur, it just a cool ass undead pirate, with a gun.

Mokujin I know it was for technical reasons, but I love the head cannon that both events from 7 and 8 weren't bad enough for his involvement

Street Fighter 2 is one of my favorites.

SF2 isn't super high on my list (even though I kinda like ST) but I do recognize how important it is to fighting game history as a whole. Fine for what it is, and amazing at the time. Does it hold up? ...kind of. Worst thing you can say about it is that it's a broken game, but that's most fighting games.

Honorable mention to the US rom of Super Turbo where the difficulty dipswitch is fucked, which makes it always be on max difficulty no matter what level you choose. Thanks, 30th Anniversary Collection, lol.

Street Fighter II was important to change fighting games for good (Yie Ar Kung-Fu was also interesting) yet I always feel like I'm playing underwater when I do that version instead of its subsequent releases.

So this explains why I'm struggling (yes, I'm not great with this entry).

Opinions of the sf movie that got announced? I think it looks like shit and tried to fit as many A-tier actors as possible. I doubt it'll respect the source material or be so cheesy it's good like the original.

Name ONE video game movie that respects its source material.

Sonic maybe you could argue Minecraft. Even if there wasn't it doesn't stop it from being a problem?

It's still a problem, lol. My point is that disrespecting source material is gonna be a given at this rate.
But I do agree that this isn't looking very promising from the casting choices alone.

The Mario Movie?

The 3D CGI one not the weird 90's cyberpunk one.

And

The Professor Layton movie

The Professor Layton movie

I forgot there was one.

Detective Pikachu was quite faithful to the game (the Pokémon series less so).

Do the Japanese CGI RE films count?

 

[Ikagura Ikagura]

This thread derailed but I am fine with the original Mortal Kombat movie.

So this explains why I'm struggling (yes, I'm not great with this entry).

As another option, I'd recommend playing Hyper Street Fighter II's arcade mode if you are looking for a fairer challenge. The opponents are always in their ST version, so the game is functionally the same as normal ST, only without the CPU difficulty bug. Edition select is a fun addition as well. Characters like Guile changed significantly over the various versions of SF2.
