When shirts fall, it really goes…

Street Fighter is one of the oldest video games, as it existed on slot machines even before computers of one kind or another occupied our homes. The idea of ​​the game was quite simple - we have two warriors, one on the left and one on the right, whose goal is to beat up the opponent in one way or another. Most of the movements are the same for the warriors, in that each one is better or worse in individual ones, and each one also has some special abilities.

The game was extremely popular around the world and was one of the first to be made into a film. It was filmed by Steven E. de Souza in 1994 and starred Jean-Claude Van Damme. There have been a few movies with this name before, but this Street Fighter is the first to be officially based on the game, as the content was created with the "fire" of Capcom, the game's publisher.

Street fighter was also one of the first video games where you could compete live, on stage and in front of an audience. Tournaments were held as early as the 1980s, and they still exist today, and one of the biggest is EVO, which is returning to Las Vegas again this August. These tournaments can be very tense, with players using all sorts of tricks to confuse their opponents.
