<game name="sf2" sourcefile="cps1.c"> <description>Street Fighter II: The World Warrior (World 910522)</description> <rom name="sf2bios.rom" size="131072" crc="3156bc6b"/> <rom name="sf2.rom" size="2097152" crc="a0f4a1e3"/> </game> Kai didn't see code. He saw moments . The grunt of a Zangief piledriver. The static hiss of a CRT warming up. The way the light caught the dust inside the coin slot. Each crc checksum wasn't a number; it was a promise.
