I'm not a huge fan of fighting games, but I do like a few select ones, with Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter and Soul Calibur being the standout exceptions. The gameplay in Mortal Kombat didn't impress me too much, but the graphics, characters and fatalities sure did. I'd never seen anything quite so gruesome in a video game as a child, so it shocked and impressed me at the same time.

'The Pit' was a household favourite.
