I hope I get a chance to play D&D TG> before it disappears into arcade limbo as well. Gotta book it. I just went to the arcade today and imagine what I found. A sequel to the Tower of Doom, I forgot the title for this one but it had 'Mystara' in it. The play it pretty much the same with the old one what's a little bit different is the way you choose your spells and items, which I don't like since it kinda hinders you when you need things quickly. Another difference is a rushing attack, being able to attack enemies while they're down, and get a twirling attack but at a cost of a few hit points. Oh yeah, you also get a few more choices in characters... there's a female thief, a human male magic user now... hope you find either one of these games in the arcade =) ...

It was fun to drill Gargus with combo after I've tried KI already but only in the SNES, so I don't have any ideas about the play in the arcade... but I am quite familiar with the differences in the difficulty levels between games an easy example would be the many version of SF2. Call me old fashioned but I'm very much attached to the older fighting games (Toshiden's an exeption) my favorite is probably Samurai Showdown and though popular arcades don't keep them anymore there's still quite a few lying around. I play the third edition in school and the second edition in a pool hall. ...

Any and every character ever known to have been created by Boon and Tobias for the MK's is involved in it too! Over 25 backgrounds, 27 characters, playable bosses, 4-5 skill tiers, and more than 100 Kombat Codes. It also is rumored to have a tournament and mulitplayer option, something like the tournament mode on the SNES Killer Instinct.

I know Dhalsim and Zangief are selectable characters in SFA2, but what I mean is that there's a different version of Dhalsim AND Zangief. From what I've heard, they can't do supers, alpha counters, air block, or land from throws. --- Maximus/2 3.01 * Origin: MACH2 VULCAN OS/2 SYSTEMS 1-403-489-4250 (1:342/61) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 169 ARCADE Ref: DAC00000 Date: 06/07/96 From: KAI BERGER Time: 01:47pm \/To: ALL (Read 3 times) Subj: MK3 HELP!!!

Its called MK3+,don't ask me what the plus is for. It said there will be some new guys only available on this game such as Rain and others. So this is what the + probably stands for. The Mk3 titles are already catching up the Street fighter in numbers, but at least they can count to 3 unlike Capcom.
