Overview
Description

Dive into the legendary world of South Town where Geese Howard returns and the Bogard brothers seek vengeance. Fatal Fury Special brings together the series' top stars in a high‑octane fighting experience that blends deep story roots with fast‑paced combat. Featuring resurrected foes like Wolfgang Krauser and a roster of 15 fighters, this game offers both single‑player challenges and multiplayer mayhem across Linux, PC, Mac, and Xbox 360. Master each character’s unique moves and claim victory in the match of the millennium.

Ultimate Body Blows is a compilation of the original Amiga fighting hit Body Blows and its sequel Body Blows Galactic, brought to modern PC. The collection adds richer colors, upgraded graphics, new music, extra backgrounds and endings, delivering a nostalgic arcade experience. Players can choose from 22 fighters—including the invincible Max and the Terminator T17—and battle in single‑player or head‑to‑head multiplayer modes. The game preserves the fast‑paced, button‑mashing combat that defined early 90s arcade fighters while offering modern compatibility.
