    Anyone between the age of 25 and 45 (and a few either side) will be very excited about this. They’ve actually gone and made a documentary about Street Fighter, the absolute classic arcade fighter game. Check it out – it’s glorious.. HADOUKEN!

    This, from Verge:

    Technically, 2012 marked the 25th anniversary of Street Fighter, the classic Capcom fighting game franchise that’s made a comeback over the past few years.

    The film traces Street Fighter all the way back to its roots, through the glory days of the arcade, and finally to today’s tournament scene, where pro players can make a name for themselves internationally.
