I'll never forget this game in the arcade when it came out; you never saw so many people around a machine. Awesome fun game. AND yet another great something that made the 1990s wonderful.

Yeah the player doing the longplay was enjoyable to watch. Really enjoyed the fast execution of all the finishers possible that were offered on this tower. They definitely have a fighting style for regular players and one for bosses, but i guess a lot of us do.

I completed this in a local arcade about a year after it was released. I too played as Cyrax. I couldn’t believe I did it. Unfortunately, nobody was there to see me do it. 😢. One thing that was so exciting about this time in gaming history, was the anticipation of them porting the game to your home system. In my case the SNES. It was beyond exciting to have the game, albeit scaled down, on your CRT.
