|  |     This is one of my favorite arcade games. It sounds like they recreated
    it pretty accurately.
    
    Question: Is it easy to see the moves that you and the opponent
    make? That is, are the two opponents clearly defined and do they
    move the way you expect them?
    
    The reason I ask is becuase I tried that game "Renegade" and I found
    that you really could'nt tell what moves you were making and that
    it was hard to defend against attacks. It seems like I was just
    randomly pushing buttons if ya know what I mean.

     I've never played the arcade version,but the moves seem pretty
    clear to me.You can tell the difference between a front round
    kick and a back r.kick,and between a sweep and a low kick.Is this
    what you mean?As far as the controls go,I don't have too much
    trouble making the moves I plan on,but sometimes its easy
    to miss one of the buttons when trying to press A and B together.
    I have the advantage controller,but the ones included in the
    NES seem to work better.I also have trouble throwing a low
    kick.Press down and I think B.It keeps throwing front kicks,
    to the right and B.I suppose with practice I'll figure it out.
     I like the talking ref too.
    How do you beat those flying things in the bonus rounds?I've tried
    jumping,blocking,kicking,I always get knocked out.It's
    lunch time,have to go home and practice up.

|  |     That's what I meant. It was hard to determine what moves you made
    in Renegade, which is why I don't own it.
    
    The Karate game sounds good. I'll probably buy it. You should be
    able to jump or duck those flying things....

|  |     Jim,
      I tried avoiding the flying dodad's at first.I could usually
    duck under the high ones,but couldnt stay airborn long enough
    to get over the low ones.Then theres the ones that come down
    the middle.....Anyhow,the direction booklet claims theres extra
    points for surviving these rounds and also for desroying the
    objects.At least you dont lose points for failing in these
    rounds.
     Tried again at lunch,havent gotten past round 4 yet.Starting
    to get some combinations together anyway.If I could just remember
    how to turn around when the red guy gets behind me.Oh well,
    I'll try for #5 tonight.I knew I shouldnt have bought another
    game 'till I finished Metroid!

| 164.5 | I spit on my nitendo | GUCCI::HERB | AL | Thu Dec 08 1988 18:38 | 7 | 
|  |     I have the nitendo version and have played the arcade.  The only
    difference between the two is the scenes and the anamation is not
    as good as the arcade. I prefer epyx's World Karate Champion (not
    for nitendo) over the arcade and nitendo verion of karate champ.

|  |     I was about to turn the machine over the other night, but decided
    to quit at around 400,000. I really wish they would work on smarter
    opponents. I am not going to spoil this game. It is pretty good,
    but it becomes too easy too quickly.

| 164.7 | 1 on 1 plus beer=fun | SALEM::DAUTEUIL |  | Tue Dec 27 1988 09:36 | 16 | 
|  |        I've had a couple of weeks to play this game since starting
      this topic and it does get a little boring,especially playing
      against the machine.Head to head is a lot more fun,and it
      doesnt take long for new players to figure out the controller.
    
       The limited number of screens gets boring after a few times
    around,but with a few friends and a bunch of brews,it's fun
    for a couple of hours.(then in goes Xevious!)

           need a copy of the chart for the different moves.Can
           anyone help me out?Thanks

|  |     I sold my Karate Champ last night, and I couldn't find my instruction
    booklet to give to the guy.  Could some please xerox this booklet
    for me, so I can send him the instructions?  
    
    Thanks for your help.
