One Must Fall 2097. Whilst it did get a sequel back in 2003 (Battlegrounds), it was a disaster that couldn't capture the charm of the OG.

And whilst there are many games in the fighting genre, there's never been any other game like OMF.

Kenny Chou (the OG composer) remade the theme song a few years ago! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvlVaQl7kEk

And DeBisco did a psytrance mix of the Power Plant theme, which is also epic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7C-f2FpNy0

I remember playing this game as a child and absolutely loving every tidbit of it... there's never been anything quite like it since, especially nothing with such a banger of a soundtrack.

One of the best parts of the game: Your scowling coach berating you for getting the robot too smashed up and then having to pay for the repairs.
