Is Full House Tournament Fighter the greatest family sitcom fighting game never made?

By Rick Marshall Published December 29, 2017

Sure, we can go back and forth all day regarding the benefits of Ryu vs. Blanka, Sub Zero vs. Raiden, and so on. But what about Uncle Jesse vs. Joey?

While the outcome of such a matchup has long been a complicated philosophical quandary that would plague the mind of even the most learned scholar, there may some answer in sight, thanks to a young man named Lucas Zebroski and his creation: Full House Tournament Fighter.

Okay, while the game isn’t the real deal, it’s probably as close as we’re ever going to get to a fighting game featuring the cast of Full House. (It even has Comet the dog!) Heck, it’s probably the closest we’re going to get to a fighting game featuring the cast of any ’80s (or early ’90s) family sitcom.

So let’s pretend it’s an actual game and marvel at the comical martial arts antics of Joey’s puppet-powered pugilism, shall we?

Of course, no game featuring Uncle Jesse would be complete without a move that launched hair gel or wicked power chords at his opponents.

Oh, and get a load of that finishing move. We haven’t seen anything that humiliating since the Mortal Kombat babalities.

It won't take long before The Zone teaches you one very important tip for surviving in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl, which is to avoid fighting whenever possible. You can only carry so many resources, and prolonged fights can leave you with almost nothing left. And that's if you even manage to survive. There are some fights you just can't get around, though, but going in guns blazing isn't the best strategy. There's a handy stealth kill mechanic in Stalker 2, but you won't find it in any of the tutorials.
How to stealth kill in Stalker 2

You have the ability to stealth kill right off the bat, though it is not something the game will ever explain or tell you. It works how you would think, but is tricky enough to pull off that you might not think it's possible even if you try the right thing.

Game spending is up — and you can thank Call of Duty: Black Ops 6

Most of us knew that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 would be one of the biggest games of the year, but it's so big that it's doing a lot to boost games sales across the U.S.

This information comes from Circana (formerly NPD Group), which publishes a monthly report on U.S. video game spending. According to analyst Mat Piscatella, spending on hardware, software, and accessories was up 10% in October compared to the same time last year, and the spike was "primarily" driven by the release of Black Ops 6. Non-mobile video game subscription service spending was also up by 16%.
