Santulli Slant: One of my "claims to fame" is that I can BURP in the same exact voice as the referee in the arcade version of this game. Unfortunately, the NES does not accurately produce this voice, so I am continually forced to reproduce it myself in order to achieve the arcade effect. Remember "FULL POINT"? Well, I can belch that one almost perfectly. Just buy me a beer and I'll be more than happy to share my little talent with you. By the way, the game itself is fair. Truthfully, this one inspired an entire genre of one-on-one fighting games. I wonder how many Soul Calibur fans cut their teeth on this baby? (burp) Sorry. [Gr: 5, So: 3, Ga: 5, Ov: 5]
