The subject of episode 2 requires absolutely no introduction! I am joined by my friend – and co-host of the Pre-Alpha Podcast – John for a review of the soundtrack from one of the most iconic games of all time, Street Fighter II. We cover well-known tunes from the original CPS arcade versions and the SNES ports as well as some deeper cuts from systems such as the Commodore 64 (yes, really) and the Game Boy.
