A Street Fighter RPG?  I'm somehow more shocked that my brother wasn't obsessed with this when we were younger.

Wait until you guys see the horrible characters and artwork in the Contenders book. It makes the poo poo in this look incredible.

How did you even find a copy of the Street Fighter RPG? I can't believe anyone ever actually bought the book. Did you find it in a warehouse along with every other copy?

Great update. I actually own this book. I bought it at some shop in Pennsylvania. Half the shop was RPGs and Magic cards, and the other half was yarn because the owner's mother lived with him or something. I found it on the discount display and snatched it up, although I've never played it. The picture of Zangief is awesome because he's straining so hard that blood is shooting out of his skull.

A friend of mine from several years ago owned all of the Street Fighter books. We tried playing a game of it once. I don't remember the particulars, but the game had some kind of weird system for dealing with initiative where everyone moved at the same time or something like that. It might have not been so bad if it was just used for one-on-one fights, but our big fight scene was a free-for-all between the player characters and a group of NPC opponents, like in a normal RPG. The combat ended up being a big, confusing mess that took a ridiculously long time to resolve. Unsurprisingly we never got around to playing a follow-up session to it. When he had to move away from town and couldn't afford a rental truck my friend left a good deal of his stuff behind. I think I might still have those books in a box sitting in the back of a closet somewhere.

I wonder if the illustrator for some of the images is the same guy who did that Doom comic. Guile's bizarre circulatory system looks awfully familiar...

I have all the Street Fighter books, my friend wanted some martial arts moves for our WoD game and I figured what would be the harm. There's also a Secrets of Shadaloo book where they imply that M. Bison is a knowing servant of the Wyrm. And then they took the combat system wholesale out and used it for WoD:Combat.

It's non-stop stupid bullshit with a side-order of nonsensical rules.

You guys should seriously do an article on the old Spelljammer setting, it would be a good laugh (I love Spelljammer and I'm currently running a 4th Ed. game set in it, really it's awesome  )

Street Fighter monster manual! http://www.somethingawful.com/d/dungeons-and-dragons/street-fighter-contenders.php Wow, the art is just eye-bleedingly terrible this time. Great job guys, I laughed the most at this one out of all the ones so far. Hilarious! WTF DnD posted:Zack: Project GX-9 will produce the perfect super soldier incorporating all of the qualities of the world's deadliest fighters: speed, stamina, strength, and double F cup hooters.

Holy gently caress Bluegrass about killed me. I wonder where the franchise would've gone if they'd used the monster manual for their table top game to add in new fighters. I mean, come on. Bluegrass. The Spanish Ninja with the brain of a 13 year old girl. Jesus Christ.

Oh god, I had this for some reason, and I never even played D&D. Among the characters not covered were a Hawaiian guy with the power of water, a fat old Chinese man who practices Tai Chi, a purple-skinned mentally retarded gangster, an amorphous Lovecraftian horror that wears a black robe and mask to appear human, a slug-man with the quote "Prepare to die, human microbe!", and a lizard-woman who wants to mate with capable fighters and breed half-human hybrids. I only wish I'd realized how terrible this all was at the time.

Laughed like hell at this:quote:Steve: My uncle was a Marine and he would walk around the house all the time saying "Oorah!" and not even knowing it. It wasn't loud like that Al Pacino movie where he's blind, he'd just be working on his car or out back digging a hole or something and he'd stop and wipe some sweat off his face and say, "Oorah." Even though he didn't know I was watching him out the window and nobody was around. Also, [inaudible whisper]

quote:Steve: Remember that part in Star Wars where Darth Vader gets his hand cut off? I'm very disappointed in you both. This book was amazing. I really didn't think there could be anything worse than those Rifts books, but this... it's like they got together a class full of third-graders, had them each make a SFII fan character, bound the sheets together and shoved it out the door.

A lot of though clearly went into the backstories. "Let's make a character from Kentucky." "What is Kentucky known for?" "Horses and bourbon." "How about a guy who eats horses and drinks sour mash?" "Okay, next character. How about a guy..."

The whole universe is meant to be absurd. I think 'horse meat and sour mash' is just on the low side of the absurdity.
