Remember Street Fighter 2 on the SNES? Then you should like this a lot.

We all remember just how good Street Fighter 2 was on the SNES. Many, many hours were spent perfecting various special moves so as to better destroy our siblings after school.

One of the joys of playing the one player game, apart from getting the hang of performing Hadoukens and Shouryukens at will, was the bonus levels, where you got to destroy a car, or some bricks. Pointless, but very satisfying.

Anyway, in case you don’t remember, here’s what they looked like.

Now, a very clever man called Filipe Costa, who goes by the name of Pipoca Effects on YouTube, has created what the famous brick-destroying stage would be like in first-person view.

It is very cool and the next Street Fighter game that comes out has to have this as a playable level.

By the way, check out Pipoca’s other videos. Some very cool stuff in there.
