  Probably the best Fighting game to ever hit the PC.

  The era of MS-DOS games was blessed with great titles such as DOOM, Duke Nukem 3D, Warcraft: Orcs and Humans and Command and Conquer, but the list isn't as quite as large when it comes to Fighting games. Someone may argu... Read Full Review

  This game does have any ideas that fighting games nowadays doesn't. This game must be revolutionary.

  There's a lot of surprises in-game!!! Takes like 2 or more hours to master in each HAR (or robot) AND if you search the FAQ in Google. The story mode (One Player Game) and the Tournament mode are good (specially the las... Read Full Review

  This game is a masterpiece and a classic.

  By Syklonic | Review Date: Sep 13, 2006 | PC

  I still play this game after buying it new for $40 in the 90s around when it came out. The entire game including sound/music, graphics, game play (esp tournament mode), is beautiful. OMF places in my 10 best games ever... Read Full Review

  OMF is one of the greatest fighting games for the 486/P1 era and is still very enjoyable today.

  First, let me get this out of the way, this game became freeware not to long ago, so you can download a full version copy of the game for nothing which is sweet. Pick up a DOS emulator and play away! At any rate, if you ... Read Full Review
