Issue 269 of Retro Gamer sees the magazine celebrating the many great achievements by Capcom within the one-on-one fighting genre. From Street Fighter II: The World Warrior to the excellent X-Men Vs Streetfighter, no key game is missed out as awards are given out for the Best Home Port, Perfect Presentation, Unlikeliest Crossover and many others. Members of the fighting community also weigh in to explain what makes Capcom’s fighting games so popular.

Other highlights of issue 269 include a look at the many great games of Psygnosis, with the studio’s ex art manager Jeff Bramfitt. Shadow Of The Beast, Lemmings and WipEout are just a few of the games Jeff comments as he looks back on his time at the studio.

The latest issue also includes two great interviews with Wil Overton and Stuart Whyte. The former talks about his work on Super Play and N64 Magazine and working for Rare, while the latter discusses his impressive producing career and working with Peter Molyneux.
