This PC port of an arcade mega-hit did not sell well simply because of its hefty system requirements (P133 and 32MB of RAM three years ago, when the majority of gamers still didn’t have a Pentium). Still, the game was revolutionary in many ways: it has true 3D fighters and arenas, over 700 moves that rely solely on martial arts without supernatural powers, and separate endings for each character. It sets the standard for Virtua Fighter 2 and 3, which up the ante with more characters and better, 3D-accelerated graphics. Virtua Fighter PC is a true undersold classic that set a new standard for fighting games.
