 AAW: Fist of the North Star (Movie) Review
Fist of the North Star is set in a pretty classic Mad Max-esque post apocalyptic world, replete with big, ugly bad guys terrorizing defenseless villagers, but it distinguishes itself from some of the more "realistic" movies in the post-apocalyptic and splatterfest genres in how far over the top the villains are.
Speaking of exploding, Fist of the North Star distinguishes itself from many in the genre it founded by the glee with which the graphic violence is executed (again, intentional choice of words).
Art-wise, Fist of the North Star offers about what you'd expect from a theatrical movie made in the mid 80's: chunky character designs leaning toward realistic proportions (very similar to the TV series), slightly rough art, and generally bleak (a good thing, being that this is the post-apocalypse), loosely painted backgrounds.

 Bastion of the Classics - Classic games won't die while we're around!
I'm not entirely sure whether this is a game that came free with the original Exploding Fist 2 or it was sold separately.
The fighters themselves are animated adequately and they move a lot smoother and faster than in the original Fist 2 game, not to mention the original Way of the exploding Fist.
True, I would have preferred them to use the energy bars from the original Fist 2 as well as having the sounds changed slightly, but there's no doubt that this is a solid game that warrants a look for the fighter aficionado.

 Interview with Gregg Barnett - Sumea Launchpad   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
While the games had different fighting styles and Fist was a specific vision of mine, it has to said that some of their better ideas were an influence in the end.
It has to be said that IK looked a lot like Fist (in places the graphics were virtually identical) but it used the forward kicking (street) karate style of Karate Champ as opposed to the side kicking (realistic) style of Fist.
The most exciting ones were Exploding Fist, Discworld and Ghost Master, all games that started with huge expectations which just seemed to grow and grow.
