For Max, this was a bs boss fight For Bison, it was tuesday

"They had to change M. Bison arround because of a popular boxer at the time named EVANDER HOLLYFIELD" Never change Max.

If you are what you eat, then Mike Tyson really is Evander Holyfield.

Having only played the SNES version of world warriors before: They should've shut up the elephants in every version because oh my god

So Eliza was originally cardboard, then became a blowup doll on wedding day, and was a real girl later on..... When a half Japanese dude wishes upon a star, things go down very different.

15:49 I didn't know Max was the Voice Actor for Homer Simpson..

Saturday mornings at my local laundry mat, pocket full of coins and possibly a donut, and this game. It was 7am. Good old 90s

Street Fighter II: The World Warrior... yep. We now reach this game and it's the game that made fighting games popular and how an arcade industry experienced a rebirth.

Tiger Tiger Tiger Tiger Tiger Tiger *Tiger Uppercut*

God Ken's victory pose gets me every time....that SMILE

As bob ross says "we dont make mistakes, we have happy accidents" and this case combo's was one of those happy accidents.

"Get lose, you can't compare with my powers" ~ M. Bison

Vega gave him the business

Man that evander holyfield punch line killed me

Those elephants man, they really grind my gears I never undedstood why the fps drops happened, especially with hadokens and knocks down. Must've been some hi-tech 1080p fireballs.

The bs he faced against Guile and Bison made this a fun run. Especially when they were both releasing moves with no charge 🐸

My first fighting game ever snes I was just a kid now I'm 34 and I still play video games.

LMAO Max is by far the most entertaining player. I laughed so hard at his reactions towards SF2's cheapness.

When I was about 6, back in 2001, I went to my first arcade and I remember hearing "SHORYUKEN!!!" throughout the place and I didn't have a single clue what that was. Needless to say, that was the day I got into Street Fighter. Preciate the memories Max!

Fighting the AI is so much different than fighting people, seemingly even more so in these older SFs.

playing guile and facing him as a 8 yr old was insane back when : P

Ken "WOW!" Masters

Max managed to take out Vega without ever resorting to the "OTG Glitch" that lets you foot sweep him endlessly in the corner. Nicely done!

Lmao street fighter 2 is hilarious because when they throw they be like “HRRRGGGGH” 😂😂

Dear God, please do this for the rest of the games in the collection! I would love to see you go through the whole series with Ken.

Would be really cool if they added Ken to Smash Ultimate as Ryu's echo fighter

Max's explanation are always the best. Lmao. That Homer scream though. 😂😂😂

lol at max's scream... 😂😂😂 hilarious! 😂

I still have nightmare flashbacks about Vega/Balrog...

Wow old Ken DOES look like Owen Wilson! 😂😂😂😂😂😂

My parents left me alone for hours in a place with an arcade machine for the classic SFII. And that was the day I fell in love with this series.

SFII Combos: Mom, Dad, an I adopted? Capcom and Nintendo: No, you’re an accident.

I remember buying a SNES back in 1994 and getting SFII Turbo with it I was addicted so much I never came off it for weeks. It was a perfect version of the arcades

This game is like a time capsule in itself - so many awesome memories on snes and arcade!

God, I remember being at the arcade in Florida with that sense of giddy apprehension when the Grand Masters appeared. Seeing Max experiment to find ways around everyone was a trip down memory lane.

Thanks for the hilarious video Max. I've been having a rough go of it lately, but your videos legitimately bring me to tears of laughter. You're the best.

Bison stage music is brilliant. Good memories from my childhood

Look how far we've come since this revolutionary game...

In this version you can read in vega's stage ''Mesón de la taberna'' what it means something like, ''Restaurant of the tavern'' a totally nonsense. They changed into ''Mesón de las flores''( Tavern of the flowers) in later editions. Nice vid as always!

"Ken !" "Oh Eliza...what are you ?"

I remember a long long time ago.. I was in my early 20's living in Cape Charles Virginia. This bar I went to had 2 video game cabinets in it. Street Fighter 2 and another. I played SF2 all the time. Pumping Quarters into it. One night I put in a quarter, Picked Sagat and played. I didn't have a clue what I was managing to do, but after months of stopping by this place and playing people and the CPU... I defeated Bison and was met with the special ending and the end screen portrait shot. I realized then what happened. I had defeated all the fighters, with double perfects for each one.... first / last and only time I ever managed it despite trying to recreate that a lot.

As tough as Zangief was in this game ... I think he can officially count as a mid-game boss battle.

I frikn love this video. Never gets old. Love watching Max's skills

Just watching Max having fun playing SF always gets me hyped

When Vega hangs on the cage move as far away from him as possible and as he jumps do a roundhouse kick or jump backward and kick out both work!!

@26:24 that round 1 match was insane

Damn, a wave of nostalgia just hit me like a tsunami. I remember spending HOURS on my old SNES trying to beat Balrog, Vega, Sagat, and Bison when I was younger and the day I FINALLY did.... Was glorious

The first image of Eliza looked like Angelica's Cynthia doll from Rugrats.

I love how the punch at 13:34 sounds like you got hit in real life.

We used to call bisons scissor kick "cadillacing".so many memories

Thoroughly enjoyed this video Max.

The tatsumaki senpukyak gets me excited every time! Love that hurricane kick

Max referring to Blanka: "I hate this character so much!" Me, a Brazilian: HEY! XD

I love me some Street Fighter II. You can't go wrong with a classic.

Oh man, Max's reaction at the ending....priceless!

So. Many. Memories. The nostalgia is so strong with this one.

Hey, Max?? CARS DON'T HIT BACK~ Also, great vid. Also, your Homer Simpson screams are on point. Also, OWEN WILSON MASTERS😅🤣😂

You're hilarious man lol I'm gonna start watching more of these videos. Thumbs hella up.

Seeing this makes me appreciate how far games have come more than ever.

The best sound effects ever love the classic voices

Thank you frame data for colliding with each other and started something awesome called combos, where would we be without that frame data bug lol.

Such a great classic

Something about the pace of this game is very pleasing, perhaps the juxtaposition of slow motion/moon gravity jumps and steady walking vs very rapid attacks just feels good.

This brings back such nostalgia!! Thanks Max🤣

Dude when you called ken Owen Wilson i almost peeded myself i never noticed that until you said it awesome

37:42 I was thinking the same thing. For a second I was like, "wait, is this a cheap fan addition or something?!?" Guess I shouldn't be surprised though with bad translations like "Get lose."

So glade to see the struggle is universal Maximilian Dood

The sound of those fierce hits though. Yeah baby!

Quarters Up Returns!

Blanka is a nightmare in Street Fighter 2

When I was a little kid, the day care center I went to after school had a SNES that we all could play and this game was one of the favorites for everyone. There was one guy, a Torres Strait Islander named Lindsay, who was an absolute prodigy with Guile. He had the timing down so well that he could spam Sonic Booms from the corner of the screen ad nauseum until the opponent was defeated. Nobody could challenge him because it was timing and skills beyond anything we'd ever seen on a conventional console. I still wonder what happened to Lindsay and his insane Sonic Booms of Doom.

Max still got that nice Street Fighters. I love that series

"He stole my strats mid game then won EVO with it!"

Highly entertaining to watch, especially with the commedy running commentry. Funniest part is 21:28 - when he thut he had Bulrog and resumed his explanation of how Bulrog was named, then got KO'd, LOL.

Watching this again makes me wish I still had my PS2 w/ my copy of Capcom Classics Collection Vol. 1

always a joy to watch max play and get salty. his salt is understandable salt. :D

So flying each fighter out to their opponents native country to fight is rather expensive. How about we hold the tournament in one location, let’s say Atlanta?

Heavy Kick for the Car Bonus. ^^ Love this SF old games.

I love the ST sonic boom and announcer. The guy has charm. The sonic boom in ST seems like an inside joke to me and I love it.

Sagat is such a pain in the ass in the original Street Fighter.

To fight Guile, you need to uppercut just out of range and he'll automatically do a flash kick then inflict damage. Repeat.

The barrels was mad impressive I never thought I’d see the day

"GET LOSE, YOU CAN'T COMPARE TO MY POWER." -- M. Bison

and people say the Ken in SFV was bad looking.

Just bought Super Street Fighter for my SNES due in post anytime now, yourusless hurryoucan sickwackybacky cant wait!

damn, those "pop/splash" hit sounds on are soooooo satisfying.

I love your work Max

Maximilian w/ Maximilian

Man, that fight against Vega. I remember having to switch to Guile for him and Sagat. Guile's roundhouse kick was the only way I could beat their reach.

The SNES version was awesome! Me and my bro got it for Christmas along with 2 Capcom fightsticks. The glory days

I’ll give a thumbs up for the perfect barrel stage

When he said Mike Bison resembled Evander Holyfield, I was all ears..... 👥+👂💢👄= ( *This Boxer* ...)

TATSUMAKI-SEN-PROOKEN!

Max you are one of the few youtubers who are amazing in many fighting games!

I rewatch this video to hear Max’s reaction to Ken seeing Eliza during Kens ending. So funny!

max getting bodied by geif

BISON!!!!!!!!!! FOR ME IT WAS TUESDAY!

This is what started it all for me!!

The arcade game that everyone thinks started the whole street fighter series. Also this is one of my favorite classic arcade games growing up as a kid.

U should try do a run without losing a round to see the secret ending of street fighter! I remember when i did for the 1º time on a arcade. Good old days!!
