The court also ruled that while the control sequences for the special moves were similar, they were not a form of expression protected by copyright. As for the representation of the playable characters and special moves, the court found three characters Matlok, Feilin, and Ray and five special moves in Fighter's History were similar but not virtually identical to characters and moves found in Street Fighter II.

Fortunately, seven difficulty settings will challenge players of every caliber, but you'll lose interest soon after encountering the goofy bosses, Clown and Karnov.
History's character animation isn't bad, but the dumb-looking characters don't help the graphics. Then you look at the backgrounds. Actually, you have to look twice because you almost miss them.
They're washed out, lack detail, and don't have the awesome multi-scrolling effects of Street Fighter. The sound isn't much better. There are some pretty decent, though completely unintelligible, voices.
Ray's "Big Tornado" sounds like "Baked Potato. This game is a historic piece of rental material. Fighter's History is a good fighting game. It succeeds where many fail: the control. Its controls are really good, and there are a lot of moves per character. My only real qualms lie with the backgrounds. They don't seem like they fit.
The voices are a nice touch, I thought. Overall, this is a good game to pick up if you enjoy fighting carts. While I typically don't drool on most fighting games. Fighter's History has some strong points. The control, for instance, is topnotch.
