I Love the Eighties: Street Fighter Casino Game is Released

May 12th, 2008 · No Comments · Online Casinos

CryptoLogic, one of the biggest casino software industry tycoons of our present time, has announced a new launch of casino games.

The end result of this launch? Seven brand new online arcade games for the casino videogaming crowd. Big jackpots, crazy cool cutting-edge graphics and top-notch action. They just pulled off a soft launch of these new arcade products and they’ve gotten a great response - so the launch is now official.

Street Fighter in the Casino

Street Fighter 2 | Casino fighting action

I’ll admit it: I was hooked on Street Fighter II when it first came out. Favorite character was Guile (the blonde guy on the right of the picture with the huge hair), throwing down some Sonic Booms and Flash Kicks up in my competitor’s face. It was a huge hit in the eighties - all of it created by two Japanese developers, Matsumoto and Nishiyama. Well, Cryptologic (via WagerLogic) is bringing this classic video game to the casino market. In the video game, you can select any of the Street Fighter characters (Ken, Ryu, Guile, Chun-Li or Sagat for example), adjust their customes, and then throw down your moves against the evil Bison in a wild re-spin feature. The action is at a high level, with a pretty decent difficulty - tons of enemies to defeat. Of course, seeing huge paydays from your Street Fighter game playing will keep you focused. Newly designed 3D graphics are included in the 25 pay line release - and of course you can get your practice on with play money and then move your way up to real cash. Bonus features abound, with substitute symbols and the chance to multiply each line bet by 5000 times as a top bet.

“CryptoLogic delivers unique games that engage and entertain players around the world - and our latest casino games demonstrate our deep commitment to the player experience. ” says CryptoLogic’s CEO and President Brian Hadfield. “Just as Street Fighter profoundly changed the world of video games, Cryptologic innovations are profoundly changing the world of internet casinos - for the benefit of customers and players alike. Comic book characters that have a story behind them and have storylines that can be integrated and woven into slot machines in a gaming experience really do translate well and players love the experience.”

Other games in this Cryptologic release include Movie Mayhem, Fantasy Realm, Silent Screen, Sunday Afternoon Classics, and Outta Space Adventure. If you want a little more humor in your video game playing, you’re going to want to check out Dad’s Day In - a look at what might happen if Dad is left in charge of the household for a day - and Roamin’ Gnome - great travel-themed adventure game where you play as a crazy gnome traveling the world to different countries on a map to unveil prizes.

“CryptoLogic’s latest casino games showcase the player knowledge, creativity and talent of our software team - and the innovation that will help our licensees attract and build player loyalty,” says Cryptologic Vice President Justin Thouin. “Street Fighter really ignited the fighting game genre. I think the series has sold more than 500,000 coin operated units and 24 million console games worldwide, so this is a massive brand with huge global popularity and I think it’s going to be a phenomenal experience for players.”

You can play Street Fighter right now at InterCasino and rolling out to OmniCasino, CSCasino, and PlayboyGaming.
