If yall like this series I guarantee you’ll like guillewinquote’s content. Good fella he is
An (Nintendo) Arms reference and Guile Win Quote in the same video? This is turning out to be the best timeline! Great Stuff, as always!
Finally someone Looked into This Mess of a Game
I'm giving him a subscription, thanks!
These guys must be hell on the PGA Tour
There are some fighting games that even I can't defend...
And this one even fails to defend itself!
there are fighting games were you can't defend...
that gif of guile trying to defend earth from galactic zangief but he fucks up his charge and does a jumping heavy kick
Go home and be a family game?
oh shit its one of my favorite youtubers wtf WASSUUUPP MAN
I rather like how "I have seen the amateur, and it is YOU!" has become the hilariously awesome new meme/running gag featured on The Worst Fighting Game! 😁
I say this whenever I can.
The cover of the master fighter looks like one of those old anime OVA’s you would see in a dvd store.
I like Guilette on the cover
The fact this game isn’t called ‘Master Fighters’ but ‘Master*S* Fighter’ irritates me on a grammatical scale.
My personal headcanon is that they all have Masters' degrees in random discipline that have nothing to do with fighting.
Like Ninja Master's?!
This one too?!
I'm having Saber=\=Savior
Flashbacks!
DX
"The Master's Fighter" sounds like the title to, like, a fighting game published by Square with an RPG system and shit, with a titular Master being the guy you fight for in the single-player campaign. Like Tobal or something.
They forgot the '. It is the fighter for "masters"
Masters fighter works
You know you're in for a ride when a fighting game from 1997 looks worse than fighters from 1992
It needed more time, could of been a little hotter.doesnt look too bad needed better frame rate.
@@c.glazercrush3994 It looks terrible compared to the games it was trying to copy years before it.
13:41 has Geese Howard, from Art of Fighting 2 1994
13:45 has his copy Kain, 1997; his face looks like his nose is not really attached and his mouth is hardly visible; the gray lines on his pants look ugly compared to Geese like it doesn't really blend with it; his fight portrait has his hair going down to his neck but the actual character sprite has it squared up
9:53 T660 idle animation is just ugly
@@c.glazercrush3994 their sprites are literally barely modified versions of the OLD sprites of the mentioned snks games.....it couldn't be worse, hell art of fighting stopped looking like this after the second game
@@ironmaster6496 true.
ONION BUBS! ONION BUUUUBS!
It’s worth noting that for a while, Korea banned the import of Japanese media, so I speculate that many Korean game developers tried their hand at creating their own versions of Japanese games to fill those niches. This is probably why so many rip-offs exist imo.
But some companies like SNK did work with Korean companies like Viccom to publish their games there and to localized some things. For example The Last Blade was called The Last Warrior in South Korea and all of the Japanese characters' names were changed
@@pablocasas5906 The second half of my speculation that I didn't mention is that it just created a culture of copying. That's not to say, however, that all copies are bad. DJMAX may be derivative of Beatmania, but the amount of originality in the series transcends that to form a unique identity.
@@BinaryHedgehog1 yeah, about copying, a Korean company developed a rhythm game called Pump it Up which was clearly inspired by Dance Dance Revolution but it gained a huge following in other Asian countries and in Latin America
@@pablocasas5906 Bro, I know about Pump. It's also pretty common in the US.
@Mister Supersonic Ban Japanese media? Because Japan had colonized them from 1910 until 1945, culminating in requiring Koreans to speak Japanese and have Japanese names to participate in society.
You can see why that sort of thing might leave them sore for a few decades...
the way they mixed and mashed the visuals of Art of Fighting, Fatal Fury, SF2 and a tiny bit of SamSho is... interesting to say the least lmaooo
A Genetically Modified Organism lol
And it only takes a half-decent eye to notice that too. Amazing.
i've seen mugens that look way more organic than this
The incredible thing about this? Years later Unico is producing official Neo Geo MVS home cabinets.
It's always been so funny to me how a company named "Unico" (unique in Spanish) made nothing but hacky rip-offs.
Uniquely bad :)
some pure irony right there
So glad to see GuileWinQuote getting the love he deserves. Cool Collab.
he has some good content😎🔥
The fact that Guilewinquote couldn’t find anything fun out of this garbage says alot lol
It takes a special kind of awful to make even the most positive person find your game the complete opposite of fun.
-its Kim Dragon, not Lee
-the fake Tung has AOF2 Lee Pailong's body, which is ironic because they were a team in NGBC
-the girl with Benimaru's hair is using Mai's sprite, heavily altered of course
The sprite work on this one is actualy pretty impressive. It looks like shitty stable diffusion pixel art a quarter century before stable diffusion existed.
hahahahahaahaha 🤣😂😂😂
if this series has taught me anything, it's that nothing can be _the_ worst if it at least has endings
true. i mean if u get that frusterated at a game good or bad quality it should at least have endings for the roster hidden characters something to offer for ur troubles. Virtual Fighter 4 was good, but there were no endings 0.😒
Correct, I still remember being pissed as a kid after beating a game on this list called Deadly Arts only to have the credits immediately role, felt like I had just wasted a couple hours of my life.
Effectively, endings (as cheesy or meh as they could be) can be a redeeming feature even if the game has..basically nothing else.
Honey, bring out the popcorn, it's time for a gut-punching, brain-busting new episode of The Worst Fighting Game!
oh shit seeing GuileWinQuote show up here was quite a surprise, really glad to see his channel parterning up with bigger channels! He really deserves it!
That game wasn't released, it escaped.
I would like to nominate Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story for this series. A movie tie in that was released on just about every system available at the time, it was a hot mess of a game that played like crap.
Wtf are you drunk, its a fine game with a badass soundtrack
It doesn't have to be SPECIFICALLY in The Worst Fighting Game, but I'd like Matt to try that game out, because even after playing it many times before, I can't really decide if the game is good or not.
At least it has one of the scariest final bosses I've seen in a fighting game.
I remembered being unable to beat the final boss no matter how hard I tried.
I've never heard of GuileWinQuote until today, but that was honestly one of the best cameos in the history of CZcams.
"But I thought every fighting game was good!?"
"😒 Uh... yeah... whatever... have fun with your garbage, Matt..." 🚪
lol i didn't catch that last part GuileWinQuote told Matt at the end😁🤣
yeah he only started making videos 2 years ago but he has quickly become one of my favorite fighting game youtubers. I love how he covers obscure and less played fighting games. highly recommend him!
Matt you can't just say 'Decades Ago' when you're talking about 2000 and make me aware of the painful passage of time like that💀
My son a few weeks ago said "That's what they did in the nineteen hundreds.". Little jerk.😅
Yeah, my overall reaction was "I mean, it doesn't look so bad for something that surely came out in 1993 ...What do you mean it was a PSX game from 1997?!"
Also, just like the characters, even the backgrounds seem to be assembled from those of other games, so I'm legitimately surprised SNK and Capcom didn't sue.
I mean that would require them to actually be noticed and given they released at a Time when games like Tekken 3 existed, I'm gonna assume they kinda weren't.
@@DirgeTV I guess that's a fair point. I guess it helped that the Internet was not that widespread back then.
Every episode of this series is an insta-watch. No "Watch later" for The Worst Fighting Game
T-660 looks like mini Freddy Krueger, but most of his attack animations are just Blanka's.
If Masters’ Fighter is too difficult to say, just call it “MF’er”.
If they corrected that Engrish to "My fist... this curse... this destiny!" Namco or Capcom should steal that
The way the title is on the cover and title screen really makes it seem like they wanted to name it "The Masters Fight R" with R presumably being "remake".
I'm not sure that'd be a better name, but it'd certainly be easier to say.
I still can't get the hang out of that name, The Masters Fighter, feels, i don't even know how to describe.
The crust on those sprites reminds me of that Korean bootleg version of SF2 for DOS, where the sprites seemed to have been cut out of photos taken of the real game.
still waiting for that "Fighting Eyes" episode, Matt.
or at least give us that "Magic Beast Warriors" episode to tie us over til you do the Fighting Eyes. My popcorn's about to go stale.
Hey Matt, do you want a really, REALLY BAD contender for a show? Then I recommend you to play "Boxer's revenge. Moscow criminals" (rus: Месть боксёра. Московский криминалитет), a Russian fighting game from 2007, that managed to get 3 out of 100 by some journalists.
ty for getting guilewinquote on the show, very underrated content creator!
I just don't understand how a studio could have been killed away when it was putting out such... quality... entertainment.
I don't know about you, but whenever I see a new Worst Fighting Game episode it gives me double the exhilaration of a reversal super mortal ichida.
Oh yeah, the Dasenai animation sensation in 3D and the double exhilaration of a reversal super mortal Ichida we all know and love in a good button basher...
The title rolls right off the tongue 😅
I got on a PSX import kick a few years ago and bought Voltage Fighter Gowcaizer after having some fun with it in MAME (and since the Masami Obari designed characters all seemed inspired by his Fatal Fury anime work). The Playstation port really reminds of Masters Fighter with the rough sprites and so many missing animation frames it makes it hard to tell what's going on. Might be another good candidate.
Holy crap, that's the most 90's artwork I have ever seen.
I still think some of the fighting games they released for the Hyperscan need to step up to this series. There were mutliple attempts including an X-Men fighter and one about Intergalactic Pro Wrestling. Seems up your alley.
Thanks for cover this game, I'm part of a group of friends that love to investigate all the sprites that were ripped off for make this "marvelous" game, as you said Gamp is still a mystery to all of us we almost reached the conclusion that is the only original fighter in the roster but we know this can't be true, as long the female fighter J she's a rip off of Mai Shiranui from Fatal Fury 2, I hope that someone who read this and help us to finally discover what character/characters were used to create the infamous Gamp.
Gamp uses many animations from FFS Geese. His idle seems to be inspired by FF1 Terry. I can't remember who had that stupid twirling kick, but it's not something difficult to produce anyways.
@@Markworth thank you, now we are closer thanks to you (more than closer I think you nailed it is a mix of terry bogard and geese howard of fatal fury 1)
I kinda feel bad for the guy behind the cover art. I hope he could pay his bills.
Speaking of, I had fighting masters on my megadrive. Simplistic but it was fun during my child hood
great collab ❤ good to see GuileWinQuote more :D
This is the game you get when you ask for Street Fighter and your mom says we got Street Fighter at home.
@@krodmandoon3479 they did but it was for 1 buck from some guy who burns CDs and writes the games' names in sharpie in the back of someone's comic shop, and the game comes with an extra intro from the pirates who ripped the ISO originally.
It's got that big cheapo pirated ISO vibe.
i would make a joke about how this is one of those games you find on a really crappy latam market......but we here we worship KOF so even the crappiest, cheapest store would have an HD version of KOF 98 at best
For a moment, I thought Fighting Mast-.. oh sorry! "Masters Fighter" was going to beat the others like Expect No Mercy, Criticom and Rise of the Robots as the worst fighting game. Showing once again we have a *LONG* journey ahead of us. Lord help Matt.
A fighting game having some characters that are inspired from something else is nothing new, but there's taking inspiration, and then there’s flat out ripping it off.
This game looks ROUGH as FUCK. Also Mishell also reminds me of Marian from the Neo Geo Double Dragon game.
Thrill Kill needs a shot.
Even if it never really came out.
That description sounds like something that was written in Korean then machine translated to Japanese then machine translated to English then machine translated to Urdu and then back to English.
Considering it came out in the 1990s. Any amount of Machine translation would result in that. I'm serious. Machine translation has gotten significantly better even compared to 10 years ago.
Ken will play this and get good at it and hence be known as the Ken masters The Master fighter master
At least we can agree Unico made something truly unique... for all the wrong reasons possible.
Cue the PLEASE DO BoomBots on PS1 comment that I have been making since you started doing this series.
GuileWinQuote is the best cameo ever.
Bill's walk cycle is so dumb it's adorable!
It's amazing to me how much the graphics look like old Newgrounds parody flashes. I feel like I'm looking at the rejected material from Eva4 Sim Date RPG with those win screens.
Making a playthrough of that game was a struggle. 🤣🤣
“I hope that clears things up” I actually think I have questions than I had before.
Sometimes I like to play a good fighting game while hearing about the bad ones; especially on The Worst Fighting Game. Right now this game makes me want to play an old SNK fighter. In fact, The Art of Fighting is the only game that I haven't played yet.
The original Art of Fighting is kind of weird, it feels very floaty, the constant zoom in and out gets annoying and, just like the original Fatal Fury, the punches don't feel as if they connect like in Street Fighter II, not to mention the game is hard as hell. Still, AoF is pretty revolutionary for introducing the Power meter, taunting and Super Moves, though pulling the Super Death Blows is very difficult. I'd say Fatal Fury 2/Special is where SNK managed to make a game similar to SFII
You're not missing out on much with AOF1 imo, it has aged pretty poorly.
@@pablocasas5906 The first AOF did have taunting, and it served a useful purpose - draining the proto-power gauge to make the other guy's specials weaker.
@@cqmorrell I did mention taunting, but yeah, it's kind of annoying that in the first AoF you're not allowed to do special moves if your Power Gauge is not almost fully charged, don't know if SNK did it for balancing purposes but it makes it a bit frustrating. Not to mention that the Super Death Blow move has to be obtained by beating a Bonus Round, and even then it not very useful since it hard to pull off in a fight. The other thing I forgot to mention about AoF is that the characters show damage during the fight, but that's merely a cosmetic change and it probably meant the artists had to make a total different set of sprites, something that they repeated in AoF 2 but abandoned it in Path of the Warrior: AoF 3. The only visual change they kept were the clothing damage effects after a Special K.O defeat, in KoF '94, '95, XIII, XIV and XV King and Yuri get their clothes damaged if they're defeated with a Special Move
that guilewinquote cameo was priceless
the art style alone is enough to treat this game like the bubonic plague
J looks like a weird combination between Benimaru and King (I bet that the character's stage is the hotel lobby... If this game even considered the concept of "character's stage").
This series is like crack to me and inspired my decision to beat arcade mode with every character on Ultra Street Fighter IV (again).
any game that features the double exhilaration of a reversal super mortal ichida is a win in my book.
love how guile'swinquote is a guile lookalike and not his actual win quote
hi, just a quick correction: UNICO ARE STILL ALIVE! they operate under "Uniana" now and they PUBLISH KONAMI'S GAMES IN SOUTH KOREA.
Mishell also looks like "Marian" from the "neo geo double dragon" with the pink top and blue jeans + stance
People seem to overlook some of the features this game had to offer:
1.Third person perspective
2. 2D graphics
3. Cartoon graphics
and the most eye catching feature
*4. Fighting theme*
Ahh the 90s where games had jank but the jank was part of the charm.
The arcade version will be re-released in Evercade soon.
J actually reminds me of Juri from Galaxy fight.
Holy God's! Mishell's victory screen image could put someone's eye out!
Just imagining someone making a crossover, 1 character from each of these games...
Also, I hope Transformers:Beast Wars on N64 is coming this year.
I will keep asking, unless you tell me to stop.
For real muscles, please hype the intro again. I liked it better when you described scraping the balls of heaven.
Thank God they got Super Ichida
Apparently, Master’s Fury used to be lost in time until a ROM for it has been found a few years back. Not just the characters in this ripped off others from many better fighting games by Capcom and SNK, but its title sounds a little too similar to Fatal Fury, while the PS1 remake that is Masters Fighter sounds like a clone of The King of Fighters upon the first time I read it, though the logo looks more like it ripped off Street Fighter II’s logo.
Also, who is that girl at 1:56 while you mentioned that everybody ignored Master’s Fury?
awesome video, no wonder why people call bad arcade games "korean rom hacks".
btw, that chinese oldman was ripped from AOF's Lee Pai Long, not Tung Fu Rue
"Well we won't know till we get it in the ring." My uncle once told me I was about to get it in the ring. I'm confused as to how this will help you review the game.
What a fantastic series
6:30 Ahh the 90s.
4:35 This one is my favorite. "These backgrounds aren't must-see material, but they're at least worth a look!"
9:27 Azarl for some reason uses KOF '96 Wolfgang Krauser's sprites painted over, while having Eiji Kisaragi (KOF '95 version or KOF '98 UM version) moves
The boss character rips off Blanka's sprites and the female character rips off Mai's sprite from FFS.
Me and my sons look forward to these video's when they're over for the weekends
Ah, Unico.
-Name your company after the word in Spanish for “unique”.
-Proceed to make nothing original at all.
the deepest darkest circles pic floored me, man I haven't laughed so hard in months
"Masters Fighter", I assume as opposed to a Bachelor's fighter but still not a Philosopher's fighter.
Love this series. Really have gotten hooked on your channel.
YES MY FAVORITE CHANNELS WORKING TOGETHER
There's something nostalgic about that title. Probably because English ain't my first language and I'm pretty sure I would've written that sort of ending when I was learning the language... if I wasn't a one-year old in Brazil by 1997.
Another great vid 👍
I want to go back and watch the vid at the top of the mountain.
Honestly at first I thought this was a snes fighter that I missed out.
When guilewinquote thinks your fighting game is ass, that's dire...
I was just waiting to see what would we get this week, thanks for this Matt you are the best
We might have another contender for the Worst Fighting Game: Onita Atsushi FMW. It may look like a wrestling game for Super Famicom, but it's actually a tournament fighter.
“The Genesis Classic” and “Fighting Masters” will never belong in the same sentence 😂😂😂😂😂
When I first seen Unico's label, I knew Dragon Master was bound to be mentioned
Anyway, the anime-styled art caught me off guard, as I was expecting Masters Master to be more decent than... this trainwreck it actually is, not even the presentation saves this one
I love sensation of continuous attack!
i’ll give em this, i’ve never seen a fighting game pull off the obligatory polnareff ripoff (paul, guile, benimaru) with a chick before lol.
Benimaru is a femboy so he gets a half point I guess? :P
Master's Fury is actually going to be on one of the new Evercade carts coming out this year. Now I can't wait to get that cart even more :P
I'd love to see you cover a PlayStation fighting game called "Critical Blow"
Masters Fighter rips off Geese Howard with their character Kain. Flash forward a few years and Garou:MOTW has a final boss named Kain. COINCIDENCE!?...........yeah it probably is.
