Street Fighter
Street Fighter is the franchise that codified the modern fighting game. Street Fighter II and its endless revisions taught a generation what a fireball motion and a frame advantage were, and the series has kept refining that vocabulary through Alpha, III, IV, V, and Street Fighter 6.
It is also unusually sprawling for a fighter. The beat-em-up Final Fight games share its world, and Capcom turned its roster loose in the Versus crossovers against Marvel and SNK, producing some of the most beloved competitive games ever made.
The screen adaptations are a mixed bag, from the campy 1994 film and its various anime to the more sincere Assassin's Fist. The fighting remains the point. Street Fighter is a game about reading another human being, and everything else orbits that.
The Street Fighter franchise spans 3 series, 19 games, 8 films in the CrossBinge catalog.
