      Fight club does actually include stage transitions, they are incredibly precise and dodgy to pull off, for example in the parking lot moving your opponents back facing the window into the bar making sure that they are dead straight and pressing the grab button (i played xbox so its the black button) you will get the stage transition animation.
      Also this game has counter holds like dead or alive, if you move backwards and at the same time press the guard button your character will do an animation of them throwing their hands down which if done whilst an enemy is attacking you'll perform a counter

These are dated from around November 2003 to June 2004, a period of development that is completely unknown but during that time the game was going to have WAY more content, a completely different story and arcade mode, more gameplay mechanics similar to Mortal Kombat, the fighters actually talked in fights and be much more faithful to the film.

    I played the hell out of this game. The level transitions are in the game but It's really hard to pull off. It's only in certain places on the levels you can do them. I used to be able to nail the backyard level into the water filled basement and a couple of others. If I remember correctly to do the backyard into the basement. Your opponent needs to be standing or dazed near the basement door, then you run and grabble attack or X+O or something like that. Also how can you forget that you can unlock Abraham Lincoln.

    Having played it myself on the Xbox Original, I can honestly say that stage transitions DO in fact exist in the final version, but they certainly ARE very few, rare and hidden easter eggs to find.
    How do you find them? If I remember right, you have to perform a grapple attack on an enemy who's back is against a wall at a specific area (i.e. near the window of a building, near the sewer grate in an outdoor street map).
    Frankly, if you want to experience it yourself and have access to the game, your best bet is to try it on training mode, because you'll most likely NEVER encounter it in standard gameplay.

    Making a fighting game based on the movie is quite limiting since you're not dealing with fireballs, large bosses, or even trained fighters for that matter, although the devs clearly tried to do their best with what they had. But yeah, the game itself is pretty bare bones in game play.

      The thing is more that the real backbone of the genre at that time was anime-styled fighters that either never found an audience outside Japan at all (Aquapazza, Battle Fantasia) or were more niche in other parts of the world (Arcana Heart, Hokuto no Ken). There's a ton of those out there if you take a look, and i think at least one of those has to be worthy material for this show!

    I had fun with this game. the bone breaks and the combo throws were cool as hell to me, it also had custom soundtracks on xbox "Wow remember those days" and I loved that feature. I do remember the create a fighter mode being extremely limited and almost pointless. The stage transitions are in the game, they are just very hard as the opponent has to have their back pressed against a precise spot and you have to hit them with a running attack or sometimes a throw. They are very hard to do in an actual match unless you have two players trying to trigger them. The one in the basement level is probably the one I've seen most often.

    Play Cyber Gladiators. It's a PC fighting game published by Sierra Online in 1996. It was an early attempt at a 3D fighter. The keyboard inputs for the player occasionally work, which is bad when the computer never misses. The visuals are actually okay. The arenas are tiny and made even tinier by flaming spears and rock that are constantly thrown at you from off screen. You easily backflip off and out of the arena trying to dodge your opponent and the flying chaos. The combos, while named uniquely in the manual, all look the same across the character roster. Every character uses the same male/female vocal tracks. Play it, it is great candidate for this list.

    Dear lord, the 2000s. You forget just how many games of that era were chasing that urban aesthetic of dingy, inner city environments, angry dudes in baggy pants and do-rags, and as many hip hop artists as they could afford. And only a few of them turned out to be actually good, memorable games. Of course, Matt knows better than most thanks to his Cryme Tyme videos.

    The Deadliest Warrior game would be a good contender for this series. Deeply inconsistent match ups. (The pirate can get a consistent win by just shooting the other guy in the head with a gun immediately). A kind of "samurai showdown" vibe where quick kills and permanent damage can absolutely cripple the pace of the match. And a physics engine that has a loose relationship with "how shit actually works" especially on match replays that can just freeze the game indefinitely if the match emulation doesn't produce the same result as the match...
    Look. It was still fun with a friend and a bottle of vodka. It is a bad fighter.
    Also curious if Mace: The Dark Age fits into this series. As a regular rental when I was a dumbass kid, I legitimately had no idea how good fighting games were supposed to be.

    I attempted to research this myself but have hit a wall. I owned a demo disc on ps2 of Fight Club (I think it came with another game, the demo disc was only Fight Club and not a demo compilation disc) and there were 2 stages on the demo, the basement stage, and an outdoor stage that had a transition into an indoor stage (or possibly the other way around.) The demo was actually pretty good, and the bone breaking mechanic was actually utilized (if you broke an arm or leg then it remained broken for that round rather than end the round as a finisher.) I actually bought the game on release based on that demo and was very disappointed that the demo was more fun and fleshed out than the actual game. Will update if I find the demo online.

    Another game to add to the list is Tongue of the Fatman, a fighter developed for (of all things) MS-freakin'-DOS. It was also ported to Commodore 64 under the title Mondu's Fight Palace, and apparently to Sega Genesis (I'm just now finding this out) under the title Slaughter Sport

    • @joshthefunkdoc
      @joshthefunkdoc 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Maybe a spicy take, but i'd say the original Tongue of the Fatman doesn't belong here simply because it incorporates more unique elements for the genre like the ability to bet on your own matches. Genesis Slaughter Sport, on the other hand? Hell yes!

    anyway i really do hate this game for going against everything the movie/book stood for. it’s one of my fav movies and what makes it worse is that looking at the behind the scenes footage for this game it seemed like they were planning on originally making it a 3rd person action game, you know, actually following the movie. and it looked like they were even going to use the likenesses of tyler and the narrator from the film. i really wish they did that. it would’ve been really cool to see how they could expand upon the story in a video game. maybe have the fighting game stuff be just a small section of the campaign that happens a few times in the story, or like an optional side mode or something. what a squandered opportunity.

    I wonder if there aren't a number of reasons why most of what you've covered is from the 80s and 90s. Not only were there just more fighting games in general, due to the genre's popularity, but it was still a relatively new genre, and a lot of folks didn't understand the nuances, resulting in a lot of bad fighting games. Get to 2000s, and not only have folks figured out that fighting games are hard to make, they aren't as popular anymore, so not a lot of them are getting made, reducing the chances of something terrible come out. Apparently Fight Club doesn't care about the odds.
    (Of course, I doubt any of this is new to Matt. I just understand why most of what gets covered in this series is older, and for what it's worth, I don't have a problem with that. Keep up the good work!)
