How to play Street Fighter: a fighting game primer for everyone It’s never too late to learn how to play Street Fighter. In Patrick Miller’s new book, From Masher to Master: The Educated Video Game Enthusiast’s Fighting Game Primer, he helpfully breaks down the genre’s basic concepts and game theory into an easily digestible read — even if you haven’t seriously played a fighting game since Street Fighter 2 all-but defined the genre more than 20 years ago. With some help from fellow fighting game enthusiasts, like Skullgirls developer Mike Zaimont, Seth Killian and other fighting game community veterans, Miller explains concepts like mixups and crossups, chains and combos, footsies and reversals, and much more. Whether you want to have a better understanding of how to play fighting games or just want to feel smarter during this weekend’s Evo fighting game championships, it’s worth the fun, informative read. We’re publishing a slightly abridged version of the book’s first chapter with Miller’s permission. The full book is available to download for free in PDF format at Shoryuken.com. Versions formatted for ebook readers are forthcoming, Miller said. (Link to the full story) -- source link
