This isn't the first time she bullied Dan. In Gem Fighter, she became his student and learned his style, just so she couldn't forget and call his style "retarded".
It looks like when an arcade fighting game would get ported to the 16/32 bit systems and the background turns flat and undetailed as a result to work with the hardware. Except CFE just straight up looks like THIS.
Another character who would had made sense to team up with Sakura in lore sense is Karin. In Street Fighter series Sakura and Karin are pretty much original Asuka and Lili from Tekken series.
I like how they went well out of their way to make Ryu as accurate to Super Turbo as possible, apart from that CvS2 sprite. Then Bison, who is also supposed to be the Super Turbo version has his teleport. Chun Li is a Third Strike character? Did they pick the roster out of a hat?
Don't know if anyone else noticed, but the end of Bison's Scissor Kick super looks like he's walking up the opponent to dropkick them in the face. The only other place I remember seeing that? The Street Fighter EX series.
It's kinda sad because there was originally gonna be sf1 characters which tbh, I would rather have that over third strike characters despite that was my favourite SF game
"I'm just going to beat Dan's ass and leave him bleeding on the ground, that's my ending" if there's a video of best moments of 2018, I'll love to see this part
Let's not compare a merely lacklustre but still competent game like DMC2, to a genuine lazily developed shit pile of a game like Capcom Fighting Jam/Evolution.
rockmenx8xx Dude, why do I always see you on videos saying the stupidest shit? We get it, Ken's your man crush, but Ono was late into production. Even if he wasn't involved with this game, Ken wasn't going to make it in anyway. You can't blame that on Ono.
Watching this hurt me on a spiritual level. I can't imagine the weight on your soul PLAYING it was. This was like MUGEN difficulty curve...no AI to semi-psycho AI, based solely on the character. Also, my condolences to your arms playing on one of those goddamn Xbox controllers. Used to call them Handcrackers in my circle.
Damn! I remember being excited for this game when it was presented as Capcom Fighting Jam. The sprites are all re-used from other games, the backgrounds are just blurry photos with official art from previous games slapped on top... it makes me wonder if Capcom gave this to Ono as a project to see if he could make a game on a $100 budget or something.
I figured Ono got screwed there because he did a great job bringing SF back; whether you actually like SF4 and 5 or not, they are back in the mainstream.
Am i the only who actually things the Red Earth/warzard Series actually might have had potential? Not maybe as a fighting game, But the character designs are AMAZING!
Of course, Capcom had to flush down such an awesome idea, but if they were known to expand upon what they have they wouldn't be the Capcom we know today.
I always think Capcom FG dept. was tired of making games at this point.This is a cool idea and should've kept us playing,along with the other 2D beasts(3rd Strike and MvC2).... Neo Geo Battle Coliseum won the crossover battle at the time(That game is really good!)
StriderRyu7 dude that neo geo battle Coliseum game one of the best fighting game ever and yes this is a great idea executed very poorly games from capcom and other Developers were better and and dated years back how did they fuck this up I don't know and I owned this at one point so I feel max Payne get
Its a sad thing the original capcom fighting evolution(which was 3D like these kof maximum impact games) got scrapped due to the bad feedback of the people who liked 2D. Atleast you have to admit this one had a good OST.
I got this garbage at discount and still felt ripped off. The AI is really weird in this game, half of them act lobotomised while I remember Demitri being way harder than everyone regardless of difficulty. I honestly think they copy-pasted the old ai scripts they had because making ai would take actual effort.
Capcom made a game out of almost entirely recycled assets, with very little new content, the only selling point being the crossover of different engines. The game doesn't sell well so they give up on fighting games for years. Did they seriously take them that much effort to make this one?
Benadryl Thundercrotch haha real funny mate but at least mvci has more new characters, new features, more things in the game. They might be bad but at least there's something
It wasn't a bad time. In '96 Capcom released Alpha 2 and X-Men vs Street Fighter- both huge arcade hits. Red Earth/Warzard was Capcom's 1st game on their powerful CPS3 board. Even the mighty Saturn with a 4MB RAM cart couldn't deliver this perfectly and was the only console that could've hoped to at the time. A Dreamcast release would've been nice though. Well, at least Tessa got featured in more games!
@max In this game the cast essentially have the mechanics that r within the game that they r grouped in. So alpha characters will have alpha counters, custom combos and such. SF3 fighters can parry, and EX's, Red Earth guys have that wacky level up system. The list goes on.
LeThAlMoBSteRSmeDz66 Ultron's theme and Strider's theme are the only ones that I can actually remember in that fucking game. Ultron's theme is my fav tho.
I won't lie: I wasn't impressed with most of the OST from this one... maybe a few stage BGMs and a few others, but I say it's the only decent takeaway from it... well that and the fact that Red Earth got a bit more exposure from it.
You're much better off just downloading the MUGEN Fighting Jam screenpack if you want to play something more interesting that still sort of resembles this trainwreck of a game.
@Maximilian Dood I remember this on the PS2. I think the only unlockable characters were Shin Akuma and Pyro (whatever that fire guy's name was). I remember how poorly done this game was. Like that T-Rex guy was ridiculously overpowered. Gameplay was totally broken. Roster was ridiculously small, and sprites were taken from games from all over the place. It was a nice, but poorly done. Maybe Capcom can do something similar on the PS4 and have a better and bigger roster, and have more balanced gameplay. That is something I'd like. Maybe also have 2vs2 tag team gameplay as well. So basically like a Marvel vs Capcom game but with Capcom characters.
Several people have mentioned something like this before, but I believe a re-imagined version of this could be good. Imagine taking only the Capcom characters from the VS series' games and doing a new fighter with 3D graphics that cherry-picks system aspects from the VS games. It could be 2V2 like most of the VS games. All the characters could have VS-style mobility with dashes and super jumps. Any attack (or almost any attack) could cancel into a super--and so on. And they could provide a roster similar to this one where a few characters from some of the more popular franchises/games could represent each one. While I'm watching this video, RUclips's recommended/suggested videos is showing me a thumbnail for one of Max's Project: Justice videos on YoVideogames; bring a couple of characters from there into it with new 3D sprites/art. New characters could either be unlocked via shop (like the home version of MVC2) or done as DLC. I dunno. Just throwing some ideas out there because I think many of us recognize that the concept had great potential but the execution was far too disappointing.
The reason why it seems so much easier to win with Ryu is because he's an "SF2" character, all of the SF2 characters do more damage than the other charcters, and their supers do 40% damage easy, Sakura, being an Alpha character, sucks, Alpha was gimped hard in this game, CC was practically worthless and their supers did no damage. I never understood why they just didnt make all of the characters fight with the same mechanics instead of tying them to the game they originated from. Completely dumb. Half of the roster was worthless.
GamerBear Yea it was a terrible idea. I really was excited for this game when I first stumbled upon it at GameStop back in the day but boy was I instantly disappointed. Lol
Essentially, they threw everyone in with their mechanics and didn't think to either balance that shit, make a groove system like CvS2, or just give every character the same mechanics. Now I wonder if the final boss being Pyron was because Capcom was too lazy to make an actually difficult boss, so they threw in a character with the most OP mechanics in as the final boss
Yea they could have done so much better with the game, it was essentially a copy paste job with literally no thought behind it, probably took them a a few months to make, if that. Im pretty sure they just said what the hell and said fuck creativity (like they did with the rest of the game)and said lets just throw in a random final boss from a previous game and chose Pyron for no real reason at all except that he was broken. They also put Shin Akuma in as a "secret" final boss.....how original.
Well hey, at least there was ONE bright side to this game.... It gave Mugen players a pretty nice screenpack. Come to think of it.... This game is just basically Capcom's own compilation Mugen roster, it has just as much thought put into the balance.... Which is to say, there was no thought there. =V
I remember gamespot interviewing Ono before this game's release, and being the company man, had to hype up the game and say why it's an innovative game and a worthy tribute to Capcom's fighting history. You could tell that he was low-key trying to keep his composure saying all that bullshit. I wouldn't be surprised that after the interview, he went straight to the bar.
I mean, I really like Ingrid. That's a plus for this game... Albeit the only one. It's just too bad she had to be introcuded HERE of all games, because it buried her chances of showing up in anything relevant anymore. (Yes I know she has had other appearances like the PSP version of Alpha 3 and Project X Zone 2 but like I said, anything RELEVANT.)
Fenrir/DarkAura64 Hey, SFA3 on the PSP is currently the most complete version of the game! Problem is, the PSP is the shittiest console to play a (fighting) game on. Project X Zone 2 seems amazing, but I'm not starting that game until I beat the first...and I think we all know how infamously long the first one was...
A Capcom crossover game without Morrigan. You know things are gonna hit the fan and go to the bottom of the barrel when that happens. I mean say what you will about Morrigan's inclusion in crossovers, but she's pretty much the main character keeping the Darkstalkers rep alive. She's pretty much the Chun-Li of the Darkstalkers series and it just feels weird not having her in. Good to see Demitri make it in a crossover though
Ok, guys. Imagine if in every single Capcom crossover game instead of Ryu it was Chun Li appearing in those games and it's too the point the people think she's the main character of the game. Now imagine you playing this game and actually seeing Ryu in it. That's the same situation in Dark Stalkers.
I remember getting this game back in like 2009 for super cheap at a game stop thinking it was was Capcom vs snk 2. Boy was I disappointed lmao. I remember being mad this game didnt feel like a Street fighter and some of the other Capcom characters and stages looked modded. The character select screen made me wanna throw the CD out the window
Ono: "wow, people don't like fighting games?" the exact mentality that Capcom still has to this day. it's not because they make bad games, it's that people don't like them, of course...
You think Ono's Capcom's CEO or something? He's just a producer. He has no say in what Capcom wants to make. Remember Capcomstill refuses to make DS4 despite Ono's requests. It actually wasn't his fault how this game turned out. After All-Stars was cancelled Capcom ordered them to salvage production cost from that game by rushing in to make this game. The game's staff themselves hated working on it.
good job doing your research, anyway, i wasn't putting the fault on Ono, i was just using that quote as an example to show the usual Capcom way of doing bad PR and justifying a game's failure.
I really wanna capcom all stars. But play in the style of UMVC3. 3 on 3 with everyone having three supers. Maybe with Chakravartin being the main boss (fight regular, giant and then silver versions for arcade boss battle) Character wish list From Devil May Cry: Dante, Vergil, Nero, Lady, Trish, Lucia and Arkham/Jester From Strider: Strider Hiryu, Strider Hien, Grandmaster Meio, Solo, Xu Wang Mu, Juroung, Professor Schlange's Mecha Pon From Resident Evil: Leon Scott Kenedy, Pier Nivans (with Mutant arm), Ada Wong, Jack Krauser, Mia Winters (with chainsaw, machine gun and mold rage), Ustanak and Sherry Birkin. From Darkstalkers: Morrigan, Felicia, Hsein-Ko, Jedah, Jon Talbain, Raptor, Anakaris From Asura's Wrath: Asura, Yasha, Deus, Augus, Wyzen, Sergei, Olga From Street Fighter and other franchises? That will go on forever so reply your own characters
Tessa and Kenji actually look like characters that would've worked in SFV. Heck! Make Tessa be Menat's rival or something and then Kenji be Zeku's rival. Magician vs magician. Ninja vs ninja. I know it's k8nda cheesy, but c'mon! It would indeed have been cool!
MrDibara or if you care to know lore, make zeku kenjis master that he's having a difficult decision whether or not to be completely loyal or to kill him as for menat, rose already exists and its obvious she has some variant.
@Maximilian Dood Does anyone know if Capcom Fighting Jam was unfinished? I feel like it was considering the roster and how hastily this game was put together. Maybe Capcom can do a new version of this game for PS4 and actually finish the game and make it more refined?
xxnike629xx it's not so much unfinished as it came out at a time when Viacom was basically done with fighters, but they slapped this shit together on the cheap to shut people up. Max is wrong about this game killing street fighter, it exists because street fighter was already dead
Same for the mostly forgotten SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos, where he was a sub-boss character. It wasn't a bad game, but it felt unfinished, the stages use desaturated colors, the characters are unbalanced, the bosses were ridiculously overpowered and had nigh-omniscient a.i. (except Athena, who is very predictable in spite of her high-damaging attacks), and it was nearly impossible to get to the Athena fight or the Red Arremer (also known as Firebrand) fight without save states (since you can't lose a single round), and you only have one chance to defeat them.
The fighting game hiatus is over exaggerated. It was only 4 years until we got SFIV. Keep in mind SFIV was being made long before 2008 release so I don't think Capcom took that long of a break. It was probably just a good time since Ono had more clout in Capcom and new management was shifting at that time.
For those who may not remember Shin Akuma (Gouki) is in this game as the secret (unlockable) final boss after Pyron. If I remember, you have to at least get 4 or 5 perfect finishes and perform 4 special KOs and beat Ingrid.
Wait... so does that mean if you meet all the requirements except fighting Ingrid (which as shown in this episode does happen) you get the middle finger? Or do you complete the requirements than get a forced Ingrid fight?
Man, it was more entertaining to hear your godly opinions on this Trainwreck game than the actual gameplay, well done! Also, by "Original Xbox controller" did ya mean the Duke or the Controller S?
*Original plan:* Make an awesome, 3D game with new and old characters from across the Capcom multiverse, such as Mike Haggar from _Final Fight._ *What actually happened:* _MUGEN_ locked in team mode. On the bright side, Demitri's Midnight Bliss transformations are pretty good.
Literally all of the Red Earth / Warzard characters need to be in something, fucking I don't know, the next vs Capcom, a Red Earth 2 or just shove them straight into Darkstalkers lore ala Tekken 7. Oh, what's that? Capcom ain't listening? Alright, ok, I tried.
Thank god I have a Pandoras Box, has all the CPS3 games including Red Earth. That's the only way to 'own' Red Earth at this point, or try to emulate it via MAME.
i have nostalgia for this game. i really liked it. i realise now it was supremely lacking but i still sorta enjoy it. it was the first time i ever played as alex and any of the red earth characters

Mugen is way better than this
Was just going to say this: looks like random Mugen junk.
There's actually a MUGEN menu pack called "MUGEN Fighting Jam" that takes inspiration from this game's UI, so we can genuinely say it's MUGEN lol
At least fixing problems in MUGEN aids easier than fixing problems in this
@@PingerSurprisethey should've called it Capcom Fighting MUGEN. It'd be a bit funnier.

I like how Sakura basically just bullied Dan in her ending. Did she take his lunch money, too?
*Sakura:* So, Dan, how do you like your first day at school? Making new friends?
*Dan:* What do you want from me, Sakura? My lunch money?
This isn't the first time she bullied Dan. In Gem Fighter, she became his student and learned his style, just so she couldn't forget and call his style "retarded".
"We can budget a new fighting game for 200 dollars, what should we make?" -capcom
More like 20 dollars
there wasn't any money in this
I love how all the backgrounds feature cardboard cutouts and mannequins like what Kevin used in the Home Alone films.
Rockin' around, Christmas tree
The worst stage is Thailand. It's just awful.
i was watching alex's stage when i made the comment. everyone standing lifeless except Sean just lifting one arm up and down.
It looks like when an arcade fighting game would get ported to the 16/32 bit systems and the background turns flat and undetailed as a result to work with the hardware. Except CFE just straight up looks like THIS.
There are high budget games, there are low budget games, then there is Capcom Fighting Evolution.
This game looks like they wanted to make like cvs 2 with a 5th of the budget.
Craig Jensen it does
MvCI: This game looks like they wanted to make like MvC3 with a 5th of the budget.
@@ChadiusFeels more like MvCI wanted to create both MvC1 and MvC2 with a 5th of their budgets combined, or just separately, but with 3D models.
Another character who would had made sense to team up with Sakura in lore sense is Karin. In Street Fighter series Sakura and Karin are pretty much original Asuka and Lili from Tekken series.
I like how they went well out of their way to make Ryu as accurate to Super Turbo as possible, apart from that CvS2 sprite. Then Bison, who is also supposed to be the Super Turbo version has his teleport. Chun Li is a Third Strike character? Did they pick the roster out of a hat?

@@spoonimefan CAPCOM STOLE A LOT of moves and concepts from Arika's street fighter ex. Street fighter 4 is very indicative of this.
That's seemingly the case.

Even mugen is better than this lol
Shiirow So was MvC2, but at least that was good.
Dagnabit! You beat me to it!
the fan had garbage taste in characters because they had 3 shotos and none of them were ken.

YourImagination ikr who tortures themselves like that?
This game had so much potential. Udon artists, so many characters like hard to get [licensing] Red Earth characters. My heart💔😭.
Ono said he was haphazardly thrown into the production of this game late into its development..
So it was DMC2: Fighting Game Edition in terms of the development cycle and game quality? Oh dear.
I would actually argue worse quality than DMC2.
Let's not compare a merely lacklustre but still competent game like DMC2, to a genuine lazily developed shit pile of a game like Capcom Fighting Jam/Evolution.
Maybe if Ono never got involved with the game at all, Ken could've been playable in it.

Oh God.
Maybe it was a blessing that Morrigan wasn't in this game rofl.
If the game wasn't rushed, Morrigan likely would've made it into the game.
Shoulda been unlockable
Sakura's ending gives us all what we really wanted though.

Max, be fair. This was not Ono's game. He was chosen to take over as producer, half way through, and salvage what he could.

My favorite thing about this game was seeing Ryu's ending with Talbain. A wandering martial arts hobo fighting a werewolf.

Come to think of it.... This game is just basically Capcom's own compilation Mugen roster, it has just as much thought put into the balance.... Which is to say, there was no thought there. =V
I remember gamespot interviewing Ono before this game's release, and being the company man, had to hype up the game and say why it's an innovative game and a worthy tribute to Capcom's fighting history. You could tell that he was low-key trying to keep his composure saying all that bullshit. I wouldn't be surprised that after the interview, he went straight to the bar.
I mean, I really like Ingrid. That's a plus for this game... Albeit the only one. It's just too bad she had to be introcuded HERE of all games, because it buried her chances of showing up in anything relevant anymore.
(Yes I know she has had other appearances like the PSP version of Alpha 3 and Project X Zone 2 but like I said, anything RELEVANT.)
Fenrir/DarkAura64 true almost thought she'd be in 5 with rival school charecters.
So... Ingrid for SFV AE?
Ingrid is my waifu.
I think she was to debut in Capcom All-Stars, but that got cancelled.
Fenrir/DarkAura64 Hey, SFA3 on the PSP is currently the most complete version of the game! Problem is, the PSP is the shittiest console to play a (fighting) game on. Project X Zone 2 seems amazing, but I'm not starting that game until I beat the first...and I think we all know how infamously long the first one was...
I can't stop looking at that tall E Honda in the out of proportion background.
Isn't E. Honda supposed to be 6'1"?
When you realize Max's theme is Sakura's theme song

A Capcom crossover game without Morrigan. You know things are gonna hit the fan and go to the bottom of the barrel when that happens. I mean say what you will about Morrigan's inclusion in crossovers, but she's pretty much the main character keeping the Darkstalkers rep alive. She's pretty much the Chun-Li of the Darkstalkers series and it just feels weird not having her in. Good to see Demitri make it in a crossover though
If this didn't have a physical release, you would think its somebody's first MUGEN project.
True shit buddy lol
I love how there's so much shit Sakura is featured in.
That E. Honda in the backgroud is huge in comparison with the fighters.
Ok, guys. Imagine if in every single Capcom crossover game instead of Ryu it was Chun Li appearing in those games and it's too the point the people think she's the main character of the game. Now imagine you playing this game and actually seeing Ryu in it. That's the same situation in Dark Stalkers.
My first PS2 game......
I consider this pretty decent but the fact that it wakes me up every night whenever I remember this gives me feeling of what could have been.
This is the first Capcom fighter I ever bought
It was cheap and it sounded neat
I did play better games before it thanks to emulators, don't worry
Kenji vs. Kenshi
Welp, we ain't escaping this game anytime soon, lmao
It’s literally coming back 😂
I remember getting this game back in like 2009 for super cheap at a game stop thinking it was was Capcom vs snk 2. Boy was I disappointed lmao. I remember being mad this game didnt feel like a Street fighter and some of the other Capcom characters and stages looked modded. The character select screen made me wanna throw the CD out the window
13:24 - That sun looks like Joseph Stalin.
This game marked the beginning of the fighting game dark age.
Ono: "wow, people don't like fighting games?"
the exact mentality that Capcom still has to this day. it's not because they make bad games, it's that people don't like them, of course...
You think Ono's Capcom's CEO or something? He's just a producer. He has no say in what Capcom wants to make. Remember Capcomstill refuses to make DS4 despite Ono's requests. It actually wasn't his fault how this game turned out. After All-Stars was cancelled Capcom ordered them to salvage production cost from that game by rushing in to make this game. The game's staff themselves hated working on it.
good job doing your research, anyway, i wasn't putting the fault on Ono, i was just using that quote as an example to show the usual Capcom way of doing bad PR and justifying a game's failure.
No, it came out in summer 08 in Japanese arcades. Then a year later on consoles
I really wanna capcom all stars. But play in the style of UMVC3. 3 on 3 with everyone having three supers.
Maybe with Chakravartin being the main boss (fight regular, giant and then silver versions for arcade boss battle)
Character wish list
From Devil May Cry: Dante, Vergil, Nero, Lady, Trish, Lucia and Arkham/Jester
From Strider: Strider Hiryu, Strider Hien, Grandmaster Meio, Solo, Xu Wang Mu, Juroung, Professor Schlange's Mecha Pon
From Resident Evil: Leon Scott Kenedy, Pier Nivans (with Mutant arm), Ada Wong, Jack Krauser, Mia Winters (with chainsaw, machine gun and mold rage), Ustanak and Sherry Birkin.
From Darkstalkers: Morrigan, Felicia, Hsein-Ko, Jedah, Jon Talbain, Raptor, Anakaris
From Asura's Wrath: Asura, Yasha, Deus, Augus, Wyzen, Sergei, Olga
From Street Fighter and other franchises? That will go on forever so reply your own characters
Great comment man.
Those red earth characters should've been in SF5...or like 2 of them.
Tessa and Kenji actually look like characters that would've worked in SFV. Heck! Make Tessa be Menat's rival or something and then Kenji be Zeku's rival.
Magician vs magician.
Ninja vs ninja.
I know it's k8nda cheesy, but c'mon! It would indeed have been cool!
I wrote "k8nda" instead of "kinda". Guess I really need to go to sleep. -__-'
But then they would have to implement Red Earth into Street Fighter continuity like they did with Final Fight and Strider.
I just don't want guest characters in SFV.
MrDibara or if you care to know lore, make zeku kenjis master that he's having a difficult decision whether or not to be completely loyal or to kill him as for menat, rose already exists and its obvious she has some variant.
@Maximilian Dood
Does anyone know if Capcom Fighting Jam was unfinished? I feel like it was considering the roster and how hastily this game was put together.
Maybe Capcom can do a new version of this game for PS4 and actually finish the game and make it more refined?
xxnike629xx it's not so much unfinished as it came out at a time when Viacom was basically done with fighters, but they slapped this shit together on the cheap to shut people up. Max is wrong about this game killing street fighter, it exists because street fighter was already dead
@Benadryl Thundercrotch
👍
Viacom made fighters? Wen my Spongebob fighting game?
MY EYES BURN
pyron looks like guile on fire
The only thing i like about this game is that they added demitri, the supposedly "main character" of darkstalkers if im not mistaken...
But without the MB.
Same for the mostly forgotten SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos, where he was a sub-boss character. It wasn't a bad game, but it felt unfinished, the stages use desaturated colors, the characters are unbalanced, the bosses were ridiculously overpowered and had nigh-omniscient a.i. (except Athena, who is very predictable in spite of her high-damaging attacks), and it was nearly impossible to get to the Athena fight or the Red Arremer (also known as Firebrand) fight without save states (since you can't lose a single round), and you only have one chance to defeat them.
The fighting game hiatus is over exaggerated. It was only 4 years until we got SFIV.
Keep in mind SFIV was being made long before 2008 release so I don't think Capcom took that long of a break. It was probably just a good time since Ono had more clout in Capcom and new management was shifting at that time.
This Game Looks So Weird As Hell!
Tiffany Kloss it is.
It's just an official Mugen...but way worse.
+xWagnerPlaguesx kind of like how CVS is official Mugen, but better (at least in my opinion)
This game is my guilty pleasure
They should have just given us a console port of Red Earth instead of this shite cross-over game
Shaddup
You’re not gonna believe this….
I played Street Fighter x Tekken and Capcom Fighting Jam as well. Sometimes I imagine that Yun is like Hwoarang.
Even the main logo of the game is a copy and paste from Crazy Taxi....
That's because Sega had something to do with this game.
So no Morrigan but Felicia's here... Well I'll bet Ryu has 34 good reasons why he fights John Talbain for his end.
this hurts
For those who may not remember Shin Akuma (Gouki) is in this game as the secret (unlockable) final boss after Pyron. If I remember, you have to at least get 4 or 5 perfect finishes and perform 4 special KOs and beat Ingrid.
Wait... so does that mean if you meet all the requirements except fighting Ingrid (which as shown in this episode does happen) you get the middle finger? Or do you complete the requirements than get a forced Ingrid fight?
I was so excited for this game back in the day. What a disappointment. :/
Pyron looks like a horned dwarf in this game rather than the flaming beefcake he's supposed to be.
Watching this game be played is just as frustrating as playing it. Thanks Max for making this enjoyable lol
Recycling: The game.
SAAH KUUU RAAH. Love your videos man.
I LOVED THIS GAME !!!
Hey, look! It's that Capcom's official M.U.G.E.N. game!
Man, it was more entertaining to hear your godly opinions on this Trainwreck game than the actual gameplay, well done! Also, by "Original Xbox controller" did ya mean the Duke or the Controller S?
IF Capcom would have redrawn ALL the sprites it would have been tolerable
If they had money, we could've had more characters like a Street Fighter 1 Cast.
RIP Retsu in Capcom Fighting Jam
*Original plan:* Make an awesome, 3D game with new and old characters from across the Capcom multiverse, such as Mike Haggar from _Final Fight._
*What actually happened:* _MUGEN_ locked in team mode.
On the bright side, Demitri's Midnight Bliss transformations are pretty good.
EXACTLYYYYYY like I wanted the 3D one they were doing around that time :( Makes me mad they didn't go through with it and we ended up with this ;-;
Jon Talbain/Gallon needs to be in more games.
I remember this game when I played it with my mom she always played as Felicia, I actually liked this game as a kid.
This game...this game looks like Capcom was trying to be KoF.
I love the art work.
I mean it's not perfect, but i've always liked this game, and I always will.
chocolatesasquatch yeah its just nostalgia i guess
This has truly been a great legacy!
Literally all of the Red Earth / Warzard characters need to be in something, fucking I don't know, the next vs Capcom, a Red Earth 2 or just shove them straight into Darkstalkers lore ala Tekken 7.
Oh, what's that? Capcom ain't listening? Alright, ok, I tried.
Thank god I have a Pandoras Box, has all the CPS3 games including Red Earth. That's the only way to 'own' Red Earth at this point, or try to emulate it via MAME.
GamerBear that would be a really interesting concept 🤔
i have nostalgia for this game. i really liked it. i realise now it was supremely lacking but i still sorta enjoy it. it was the first time i ever played as alex and any of the red earth characters
