Abu Antar totally agree with you in 1990 this game was very ahead of it’s time, it set the stone for mortal kombat & streetfighter 2 i got no doubt midway & capcom took inspiration of this, it must be.
Well my 1st thought was yes but I realized likely I was exposed to it at my brother-in-law 1991 (also PC at some point) but perhaps Aladdin's Castle arcade Mortal Kombat at the mall or later on PC?? (got to remember BBS! was a thing in the day.. something like flip phones, Kodak, and faxing LOL)!
This game brings back memories. I remember when my Grandparents would stop at the grocery store, me and my little brother would hang back at the arcade area and play this. But....it's still not the OG of fighting games. Street Fighter started it off with SF 1 back in the late 80s. This game also paved the way for Wrestlemania Arcade. Thanks for the memories of my child hood
@Chad AJ Francis: You would have also lost royally as well. This is not me insulting you but this is the truth as this game has some of the cheapest AI of any fighter/beat 'em up. Now add the fact that this game has horrid controls and is basically a mash fest and you have a recipe for disaster. The Genesis port on VERY EASY is still horrifically cheap and could easily pass as VERY HARD
@@pikkon899 I remember renting this game for the sega genesis. Tough game at first. I think the wrestling guy and judo guy really sucked. The Van Dam knock off dominated this game.
I remember this game when it first dropped in the arcades! However, I remember the novelty soon wearing off. As you can see, the animations are huge, but each fighter only has a few frames of animation, so it looked jerky then, and positively static now! I used to hate the power bar thing, where it wasn’t replenished between fights. Great way to get you to put more money in! What frustrated me the most was when your character strikes a pose after hitting their special combo. Doubles as a Victory Pose since they do the same pose after winning a match. The amount of times Kato would get hit coz he had to do that stupid bow of his after every combo! That’s why most of us used Ty, as his pose was an air punch Buzz was just too slow, but a lot of us played as him because he looked a bit like Davey Boy Smith 😂
Pit Fighter pioneered the real people-alike video gaming graphics. I really enjoyed it back in the day when arcades started coming out with huge monitors and great sound.
Yeah kinda sad they didn't greelight the sequel... This could have been its own thing with these wonky animations. Still would have been interesting to see how this game would have evolved and would have definitely played it.
lol i was a Nintendo kid. was so pissed when i went to my friend's house and saw how faithful the genesis version was to the arcade. the few times i was envious not having a genesis of my own at the time.
This game may not have aged well, but it deserves its place in history for breaking boundaries and being incredibly innovative. It still has a good atmosphere to it.
My favorite part about this game is the crowd. I would love to see an updated version of Pit Fighter. Shanking, pushing and busting bottles over people's heads. No other game did that.
In Violence Fight from 1989, the crowd would throw bottles that could hit and stun you, and on the updated version from '92, random bimbos would come out of the crowd in the middle of the fight and attack you.
They got to do a next gen version of this. Make it kinda like a sequel. 3, 5 episode chapters in story mode. Chapter one is buzz. You go to the gym and begin lifting heavy weights and then proceed to wrestle with sparring partners. As you go through spar matches, Kato walks into the gym and greets his old friend. The two shake hands and after a brief friendly verbal exchange, the two begin to spar. After you defeat Kato, then you play as Kato in chapter 2.
this game was the precursor to what games like Mortal Kombat would achieve just a few years later with using photorealism. it was a lot of fun to play and quite challenging (for a 13 year old kid at the time).
Used to play this at straw hat pizza on my school lunch...its so weird by looking at this I can smell the pizza and remember everything about high school. The final boss is the bad guy from mad max!
This game deserves a lot more credit than it gets. It may have some flaws, but it's still a worthy game and it is the spirtual predecessor of Mortal Kombat.
i’m 20 and i remember my grandpa showing me this game. i played this game non stop along with primal rage total destruction. we’d also play nascar and he’d always let me turn around and wreck into all the cars. simpler times
Wow I just had a flashback, I remember some fighting game with great graphics (at the time) I remember those weightlifting scenes at the beginning and some fighter named Kato, but I couldn’t remember the name of the game or anything else about it so I wasn’t sure if it was real or I just dreamt it
I remember playing the crap out of this game at Orchestra Camp at Sam Houston State University when I was a kid. They had an arcade in the student recreation center.
Oh yeah for sure. This game is a pain in the butt and very tough. If it wasn't for the cheats, I wouldn't have beaten this game. Thank you very much. Thank you for commenting and watching.
I loved Pit Fighter! It did not have the same feel for the Super Nintendo as it did in the Arcade. I know that was common at the time, but I liked the arcade version much better!
Steve Timm I agree, was disappointed but was happy that the graffix seemed quite the same. I loved the game was very intrigued about it and even as ridiculous as it was i still couldn't help waste my quarters.
Yeah, arcade versions of just about anything we're better. Anything they released on the Nintendo consoles sucked compared to the arcade versions. I remember Sega Genesis always emulating the arcade version is better than anyone.
This game predated mortal kombat & street fighter 2 , it looks and sounds very presentible unlike that atari lynx version wich feels more like a baby version of it, all the fun is gone. So if you are formilliar with the lynx version of it, in this case the arcade version is shocking.
johneygd well said. I was young when this was out and will never forget how amazing and how memorable this game is to me and most likely my brother and cousin. When we got the SNES, I had to have this game. It fell a bit short of the arcade in our opinion and didn't get played at home as I had hoped but I still played it.
Pit Fighter, been trying to figure out the name of this game for several years. Use to play this all the time when i was a young kid. I remember all the graphics and sounds and animations lol.
I remember crying laughing at the arcade because I only picked Buzz just to bodyslam them to the crowd or throw the crates at them. The headbutt and flex taunt combo was funny as hell too. Game was cheesy but all too fun.
This game would had been great if the attack mechanics were smoother. If they remastered it and worked out all the flaws guaranteed it would be a lot better.
When you wash and remember this game it makes the making of Mortal Kombat less I was such a unique big deal as they made it out to be when this was obviously a huge influence almost everything but the Blood
okay now if I were the game crater and developer of this fighting game I would of made it look a lot better by adding the story back round right after the mein title of pit fighter explaining where dose the ultimate competition fight of this game takes place and what it happens to be all about then I would introduce the playable characters and including the bad villain characters that feature in this game by giving all of them a bio background info so players could get to know them alot better and learn about them who they are where they come from and what they happen to be all about and I would also make them Playable for players to collect them then I would show images and footage of the fight scenes of this game and then I would give each character a story ending right after they have defeated the boss character at the end of the game and I must admit I really do love this game with all my heart and it's one of my favorite retro Classic fighting games of all time but the only problem was that there were too many missing things to this fighting game that should of been added
...i could have sworn this game was from the 80s... but anyway, i remember when this game was brand new and playing it at the arcade. it was very elite and popular
This game was pretty cool at the time but just hasn't aged too well. Even the Mortal Kombat series doesn't really compare today but again back in the 90's they were the best fighting games around - and the most violent! I have to admit that even though I wasn't all that good, I did use to enjoy playing them.
Twas amazing how the digitization of real people still look good even to this day, and this gave rise to the use of it in games like mortal kombat. Street fighter 2 was great, and has been classic too, and then everything had to go and get 3D with vrtua fighter a few years later * smfh * roflolmfao Good times.
