Street Fighter II Homebrew DOS Port
Recently, while digging through cd.textfiles.com this little file attracted my attention:
http://cd.textfiles.com/cavebbsfiles/GAMES/SF2IBM.EXE The description on that CD says: "Street Fighter II demo for IBM. Self extracting archive". While a playable demo of Street Fighter II Turbo is widely available, I was unaware of any other demo versions of the game, so I decided to check it out. The only information file inside goes as follows: Quote:
There's only one musical track, which is the title theme of the game. Almost all in-game text is in Korean. The leftmost option on the main menu is the single-player mode, the central one is the two-player mode, and the rightmost one is the options menu. Aleff Correa at the BetaArchive Forums found more info about this version, which turned to be a homebrew port based on the SNES version, made by a programmer from Korea: Quote:
Two other versions of the port (v1.25 and v1.98) can be found here (alongside with a nice review): http://www.scary-crayon.com/games/sf2pc/

On Street Fighter wikia it says Vega and Balrog were replaced by Andy and Terry Bogard (Fatal Fury) in some versions.

On a side note, it did have MIDI music, though the music files weren't normal .mid files but .mdi files. They also sounded much better (more digital, much less synthetic) than default .mid files on my Soundblaster 16. I remember some Dos program I had back then supported and could play them, though I never again met any program since then that knew this format, nor any real info on what kind of MIDI format that was. Must have been some self-made, or little-known local kind of MIDI variation. |
