What has changed over 28 years? This Friday, we did a side-by-side comparison of Karateka, a game from Jordan Mechner (Prince of Persia, The Last Express). The original game was developed for the Apple II in 1984, and the remake recently came out for PC, iOS and consoles. We tried out the rhythm-based fighting system that is at the core of both titles, and looked the nods the game makes to cinematic editing, dynamic music, fighting stances, and mythic storytelling. -- www.twitch.tv/mitgamelab/c/1978031&utm_campaign=archive_export&utm_source=mitgamelab&utm_medium=youtube
