 Street Fighter II is regarded as one of the greatest video games of all time and the most important and influential fighting game ever made. Its launch is seen as a revolutionary moment within its genre, credited with popularizing the fighting genre during the 1990s and inspiring other producers to create their own fighting series. It sparked a renaissance for the arcade video game industry and impacted competitive video gaming and wider popular culture such as films and music.  Street Fighter II is regarded as one of the greatest video games of all time and the most important and influential fighting game ever made.

 It's Sound-Design is seen as a pioneering one. In many regards Street Fighter II became a sound-design template for many other fighting games until this date. The main composers were Yoko Shimomura & Isao Abe. The design decisions of binding the characters to unique sounding locations resonates in many ears and designs to this date-  same goes for the unique attack sounds - Hadoken. It's Sound-Design is seen as a pioneering one.

-In beat'em ups / fighting games - the character select screen is the screen you will see over, over, over, over again as these games are mostly played in co-op multiplayer mode (during the arcade era even more) so it needs to be a place where the player gets amped up for the fight and simultaneously the player wants to find themselves again while spending their time wisely to select the right character. Once you selected your character the announcer will announce the country and you will hear a plane fly there. The UI sounds and most importantly the character select music must be ready for this task. There is an unwritten rule about fighting game soundtracks: If the player select screen music is great - the stage compositions will follow that lead. The SSFII one is a great composition you won't get tired of: it has an interesting tempo slightly over your hearts bpm (to get you ready fo the fight), its melodies suggest you choice and pushes you but not to much. +In beat'em ups / fighting games - the character select screen is the screen you will see over, over, over, over again as these games are mostly played in co-op multiplayer mode (during the arcade era even more) so it needs to be a place where the player gets amped up for the fight and simultaneously the player wants to find themselves again while spending their time wisely to select the right character.

 Stage music plays an important factor in the game. Its a important component of a stage-look, stage-sound, character look immersion and identification which is based around nationality in SSFII. Different stages are based in different countries and the composers tried to evoke a particular designed instrument/melody within the composition that resembles that country. Mixing-wise its also very present in the in-game mix - fitting perfectly in between all the Character SFX and generally rounding the sonical experience. Stage music plays an important factor in the game.

 Character specific dying sounds kick in first. Afterwards when the screen freezes celebration sounds , UI Sounds of the score and the announcer announcing the winner kick in while the music fades out making the ambiances stand out more. The score sounds are comparable to the Menu UI in terms how they are composed and how they sound. Getting high scores should sound rewarding and it does. The dying sounds are trying so simulate slow-motion through an delay/echo effect. Character specific dying sounds kick in first.

-It is very apparent where the roots of most fighting games lie, Street Fighter II. Maybe it is easier to see where there are similarities between the two products. At some point a certain aspect, somewhat an inevitable realisation happens, what makes these titles believable is the characteristic play of weight. All actions deal with a reaction, if hitting sucessfully the players get rewarded by a sound of impact, besides the fact that HP-bars get visually deminished (although most of the time characters also react with sound when being hit).+==== 3.2 Physicality ====

 If we speak about physicalities let's go even further, weight implies speed and way of movement. While Street Fighter relies more on fist fights, Brawlhalla brings different elements or rather materials into the scene which further improve the amounts of possible sounds. If we speak about physicalities let's go even further, weight implies speed and way of movement.

 As stated with the different potential actions, the difficulty of deciphering movement increases, but in both titles sound is used in order to let players rely on their ears and through that possibly reduce reaction times, which is crucial for games of this genre. As stated with the different potential actions, the difficulty of deciphering movement increases, but in both titles sound is used in order to let players rely on their ears and through that possibly reduce reaction times, which is crucial for games of this genre.
  
-They are alike in dimensions, so to speak both enable the players to move 2-dimensionally altough brawlhalla brings something maybe more modern(?), the traverseable space is now improved to higher and lower levels and is not limited on one line of movement. this brings with it room, room for hearable volume which has on one side the capability of simulating distance, which is strongly used in this case, on the other side it brings with it a certain emptiness. comparing that to street fighter II, for sure there's a certain limitation to spacial percaption, probably also due to hardware limitations, but all in all this gets rounded out by memorable sounds layered on top of each other, which strike out the need of space.+==== 3.3 Dimension ====

Also if we visualize the idea of a fight in Street fighter, it is more of a cage fight, there is no way to escape. And in this matter maybe it has not only been a limitation but also a decision to keep spacial aspect of sound out.

 +Which leads to the last sort of characteristic that we'll look at now. While Brawlhalla extents and also outplays Street Fighter in the technical aspect, still in some ways it is lacking. If we further observe this phenomena we can then find the reason. In Brawlhalla there are no recognizable battlecries, which compared to the completely voiced out Street Fighter, brings out a certain weakness so to say. It is almost monumental how timeless the simple implementation of Voices can be, which are still present even after 30 years.
